All you will ever need to know about the right gift to choose for your wedding anniversay!

Complete wedding anniversary gift guide of which anniversary gifts for which year be it a traditional, modern or alternative gift for the 1st to the 80th wedding anniversary year. I have also included a list of appropriate flowers and gemstones by anniversary year.

My husband and I recently celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary and I didn't have a clue what to get him let alone which gift related to which year.

In my search to find out this information I thought I might share it with the rest of the world. Hence, my version of the "Anniversary Wedding Gift Ideas By Year Lens" was born.

I also list the flowers and gem stones that relate to each anniversary year. So now there are no excuses.

I want to eat the sunbeam flaring in your lovely body,
the sovereign nose of your arrogant face,
I want to eat the fleeting shade of your lashes,

And I pace around hungry, sniffing the twilight,
hunting for you, for your hot heart,
like a puma in the barrens of Quitratue.

For the 14th I think I'll just remember that Ivory can be a colour rather than just a substance. Save all the tusk bearing critters that way. Only 1 more year to go for that one:)

Great reference on anniversary gifts and traditions. I saw something about a jewelry artist who's patented a process for making items out of paper and some couples give them as first anniversary gifts.

Thanks for taking the time to make a comment. What a great idea. Is there a lens or other information on this?

This is a nice reference lens. I like what you did. I'm lensrolling to my punched tin lens. Maybe someone needs an idea for that year.

Thanks for your comments. Did you know that the tradiitonal gift for the 10th wedding anniversary is tin and the modern gift is aluminium. But the alternative gift is diamonds. Check out my lens http://www.squidoo.com/10th-wedding-anniversary-gifts to get some ideas.

Thanks for your positive feedback. It really means a lot to me. You are the first comment I have had for this lens and yes it took me ages to finish. I have started creating lenses on each individual wedding anniversary year where I can go into more detail on focus on just one year. Thank you again.
