Anniversary Gift Calculator

Find the right anniversary gift

Each wedding anniversary is traditionally associated with a particular material or gift, a custom that helps couples and loved ones choose a themed, meaningful present. This calculator shows the traditional and the modern gift for a given anniversary year, from paper for the first anniversary through to diamond for the sixtieth. The traditional list is centuries old, while the modern list was introduced in the twentieth century to offer updated alternatives.

Milestone years such as the twenty-fifth, fiftieth and sixtieth have especially well-known associations: silver, gold and diamond respectively.

Themed gifts with meaning

Choosing an anniversary gift around the traditional theme adds thought and symbolism, whether you follow it literally with the named material or interpret it creatively. The themes also reflect the growing strength of a marriage, moving from fragile paper to precious metals and gemstones over the years. Having both the traditional and modern options gives you flexibility to suit the couple taste and your budget.

For years without a standard listing, you can look to the nearest milestone for inspiration. All information is shown locally in your browser.
