What to Buy Your Spouse - Anniversary Gifts

I get a lot of a questions from spouses on what they should buy their spouse when it comes to jewelry. Honestly, I just want to tell them to buy them ANYTHING. We love gifts. We love that you have put the thought and effort into buying us a gift. My husband bought me a piece of jewelry for Christmas this year and said he was SCARED because I make jewelry. I wear the necklace he got me almost every single day I leave the house. My advice? Just buy them the jewelry.

Today, we're going to talk about Anniversary Gifts. 

First Year
As you mark your first anniversary, gold is the traditional jewelry metal. Gold jewelry gives a beautiful reminder of the preciousness of this milestone year. Celebrate with an elegant band to complement their engagement or wedding look – yellow gold, white gold and rose gold are all great picks! Or surprise them with something sparkly like a necklace, bracelet or earrings - it's sure to make memories that last forever.

Fifth Year
Shopping for your fifth wedding anniversary should be an exciting, not agonizing experience. So make it easy on yourself by choosing a durable and symbolically significant sapphire - the traditional gift of truth and loyalty. And don't worry about being stuck with boring blue; pick from pink, yellow, peach or green to really show off their personalized style. Whether you go big with a pair of earrings or subtle with just one stone in their favorite shade encased in gold: no doubt they will love this token that celebrates five years together.

Tenth Year
Woohoo, a decade! That calls for diamonds. It's customary to give an eternity band as the 10th anniversary present, but if you'd prefer something else shiny and sparkly...try some diamond earrings or necklaces - anything that'll last through your next ten years together.

Fifteenth Year
Celebrate your love this 15th anniversary with a vibrant ruby. These precious stones are said to embody passion, and they also said to aid in preserving good health - physical or mental! Give them perfect gift of timeless beauty by choosing from an array of earrings and pendant designs made with yellow gold, white gold, platinum or silver metals.

Twentieth Year
Celebrate two decades of togetherness with a bright and beautiful gemstone - the majestic emerald. From light, ethereal shades to deep forest-tones, find your spouse an exquisite piece that'll sparkle just like their eyes. Whether it's a bracelet or classic earrings you choose for them – they will love these gems forever.
