You won't find quality like this anywhere else on the market.
Here are the symbols and meaning associated with the fifth wedding anniversary:
Wood is the traditional material for 5th Anniversary Gifts. This is because, as a couple, the partnership now enjoys the traits of a tree – rich in strength and wisdom. A wooden gift also represents the strong, deep roots it takes to grow a healthy, long-lasting tree. Just like the healthy relationship and strong partnership, it takes to reach five years of marriage.
Trees face the challenge of life every day - winds, storms, rain and sun, and throughout all of it they stand resolute, drawing on their strength and connection to the earth to thrive. This challenge and synergy is just like a relationship between two people, tough times will come but the strength of marriage ensures that, together, they are stronger for it all. Of all the anniversary gifts, wood on a 5th has a real meaning that makes sense. Made from oak or similar hardwood, a wooden gift on a 5th anniversary will go on to last a lifetime, just like a strong relationship.
