5th Wedding Anniversary

Because wood is a very versatile material, the fifth wedding anniverary has many great possibilities so you can easily tailor it to suit your own relationship.

We really like the engraved wooden boxes to the left because the gift has two parts - the delicious chocolate and then the personally engraved plaque on the box which can later be turned into a jewelry box or other household container for small bits that need to stay safe. You will fondly remember your 5th anniversary many years later with this permanent keepsake!

Some other favorites of ours, depending on your own personal interests, would be a pretty plant, wooden sculpture of a couple, carved wood flowers, or, as suggested by one of our site visitors, a Welsh lovespoon with the number "5". These are all great anniversary gift ideas that would be suitable for your fifth wedding anniversary.

If you are handy in the toolshed or good with crafts, then here is a sentimental gift idea that uses the alternate modern material of silverware paired with the traditional wood. Clean up a decorative family heirloom silverware set, or perhaps just one setting in the set, and arrange your favorite pieces in an elegant wood display case with a proper tarnish retardant cloth backing, and hang on the wall or in a display shelf so it can be enjoyed for viewing throughout the year. So many of us have sets handed down the generations that are forever saved for a special occasion but often end up just sitting in a box tucked away somewhere and forgotten. The more airtight you can make the box, the better. This will help prevent oxidation. You might also consider adding a small personally engraved plaque on the outer decorative carved wood frame.

From our Visitors

I have just noticed that my fifth anniversary is wood, not very interesting I must say. A bonsai tree was the suggestions this page gave me. I looked at my husband and said don't you come home with a bonsai tree tomorrow. I sat and thought there isn't much romantic in wood that you can buy for your fifth anniversary. Then it hit me, I should have thought of it sooner...I'm from Wales in the UK, and we have the most beautiful carved love spoons made out of wood and I wish I had thought of this sooner as it is my anniversary tomorrow so I am too late, but anyone looking for a romantic wooden 5th anniversary gift...a wooden carved love spoon would be the perfect romantic anniversary gift.
-- Good luck, Tina

For our anniversary we try to give each other a “hobby” gift. We each have lots of hobbies. My husband, Tom, loves woodworking so I often get him a tool. One year I did some research and then talked to the salesman at our local building store. I picked out a very, very nice table saw and had the store put it on hold. On our anniversary I took him to the store and showed him what I had selected. The salesman showed him the features that the saw had. The deal was, if he still wanted the saw after he had a chance to look at it, it was his!!! He did want it (it was a better saw than he would have picked on his own) and the store loaded it on the truck and we took it home right then. He has used that saw for many years now.

Since I love to watch birds in our backyard, Mike made me a bluebird house with our names inside a heart carved on the front of the bluebird house. The bluebirds love it and so do I.
-- Caroline and Mike
