Your five-year anniversary is a milestone worth celebrating. You're halfway to a decade of marriage, but we're sure you feel just as in love as you did when you were a newlywed. If you want to find an anniversary gift for your wife or husband that lets them know just how loved they are, we've got plenty of ideas. Ahead, find the best 5-year anniversary gifts for your spouse.
But first, what are the traditions around a fifth anniversary? The traditional fifth anniversary gift is wood. We've rounded up plenty of wood fifth anniversary gift ideas for you, from unique wall art to handy kitchen utensils. The modern five year anniversary gift is silverware, so we included options for this as well. And if you didn't know that the five year anniversary also has a gemstone and flower associated with it, let us be the ones to tell you to be on the lookout for sapphires and daisies while you're shopping. We've also included some sapphire-colored items that don't have literal gemstones, but that we think deserve a look.
Additionally, if nothing on-theme catches your eye, there are a few general anniversary gifts in here that are special whether you're celebrating your first anniversary, your fifth one, your 10th anniversary, or beyond.
From sentimental gifts to budget-friendly gifts under $20, here are our picks for the best 5th anniversary gifts to shop now.
