FAQs about 5th anniversary gifts

In this section, we'll answer your top questions about 5 year anniversary gifts.

What is the traditional 5 year anniversary gift?

A traditional fifth anniversary gift is something thoughtful that's made out of wood, as wood is the theme of this particular anniversary. Popular traditional gifts for a 5th anniversary include:

  • A wooden box with a meaningful date (like your wedding date) on it
  • A wooden frame with a photo of the two of you in it
  • An ornament or statue made from acacia wood
  • Wooden homewares
  • A wooden game
  • A new piece of furniture
  • Wooden kitchenware
  • Wooden chopping boards

What stone is customary for a 5th anniversary?

The five year anniversary stone is sapphire. If you're looking for an anniversary present that features sapphire, rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, cufflinks, and watches are all popular choices. Sapphire is common in women's and men's jewellery.

What are the symbols for the 5th wedding anniversary?

Wood is the traditional material associated with the 5th anniversary. The traditional wood theme symbolises strength and wisdom because wood comes from older, wiser trees. Trees also have strong roots – just like a marriage after five years.

The modern alternative to wood is silverware. Silverware symbolises all the bonding that occurs when a couple or a family shares a meal around the dinner table.

Sapphire is the anniversary gemstone associated with five years of marriage. Sapphire jewellery symbolises strength and hope, so it encourages a couple to stay optimistic about the future and push through the hard times as a team.

What do you get for a 5 year anniversary?

If you're following tradition, you should get your spouse something that's made from wood. So furniture, chopping boards, kitchenware, ornaments, and framed art are all great choices. If you're following modern traditions, your wedding anniversary gift should include silverware – so a new cutlery set is in the budget for you. If your spouse loves jewellery, sapphire jewellery is the way to go.

What do you buy for your wife on your fifth anniversary?

Fifth wedding anniversary presents are usually related to wood, silverware, or sapphires. Here are some gift suggestions that relate to these themes:

  • Sunnylife Picnic Set
  • The Complete Cheeseboard Hamper With Shiraz
  • Maggie Living Baker's Teak Rolling Pin
  • Maggie Living Italian Olive Wood Salad Servers
  • Umbra Wooden Bathtub Caddy

You don't need to follow traditions, of course. Your wife would appreciate anything that's personal and shows her how much you care.

What do you buy for your husband on your fifth anniversary?

If your husband likes following traditions, he'll appreciate anything related to wood, silverware, or sapphires. Here are some gift suggestions he will love:

  • Laguiole French-Made Olive Wood Serrated Steak Knives
  • Maggie Living Olive Wood Wooden Spoons Set
  • Maggie Living Measuring Spoons and Maggie Living Measuring Cups Set
  • DOIY Designer Cheese Board Set
  • Beer Bottle Caddy Wood With Opener

If he isn't a traditional bloke, we recommend a hamper. Hampers truly spoil the giftee, so they're a special treat that he won't forget.
