A wedding anniversary is a special occasion in a married couple's life. It is a day to honor the love that is shared between two people and it also reaffirms the commitment that was made on that extraordinary wedding day.

Every anniversary is a milestone that is commemorated with a specific gift. Although it is uncertain how the gifts were chosen for a specific year, today there are both traditional and modern gifts. So if the traditional gift is not especially appealing, the alternate modern gift can be substituted without question.

Here is a list of either the traditional or modern gifts for anniversary years one through ten, then major years 15 through 50:

A great gift idea for a 1st anniversary would be personalized paper wine bottle labels or anniversary water bottle labels (with adhesive) for the anniversary party. As you can see, a paper gift does not need to be a boring gift. Hint-hint, you can also give money (paper) in a paper envelope. Next, the 2^nd anniversary gift could be a Save the Date Anniversary Magnet with a cotton theme, which will be mailed many months prior to the party. The cotton suggestion on the magnet will give everyone the idea to purchase something cotton: his and her matching shirts, cotton sheets or linens, and even organic cotton Mr. and Mrs. bath robes.

The 3^rd through the 10^th year gifts could also be any one of the Anniversary Save the Date magnets from Magnets and Labels because each magnet is designed with the appropriate numbered year gift. Personalized anniversary gifts are so meaningful because they convey the most sincere thoughts about the happy couple that are truly from the heart.

Personalized wine bottle labels or anniversary water bottle labels for the anniversary party can be customized especially for the bride and groom. No matter what the party theme, water and wine bottle labels can be designed with matching colors, special verbiage, and the couple's photo or any one of the traditional or modern gifts named above. Several exciting options would be a Anniversary wine bottle label for a twenty-fifth anniversary or a Anniversary water bottle label for a fortieth anniversary.

Remember you can make the anniversary couple's day with a uniquely personalized gift and when you purchase from Magnets and Labels, you'll find numerous choices and great ideas to make your shopping experience affordable, quick and fun.
