Ideas From Traditional to Unique

10th wedding anniversaries are usually celebrated with gifts of aluminum or tin. Tin is the traditional material associated with this anniversary and therefore couples would give each other 10th wedding anniversary gifts made of tin.

However aluminum is the modern alternative or for those who can afford it, another option would be diamonds. Many couples find themselves knee-deep in nappies or diapers after ten years of marriage so this may be an opportunity to spend some quality time together without the children. A great gift to offer a couple about to celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary would be to offer to baby sit while they enjoy an evening out together, or even an evening in.

Tin may not sound a particularly inspiring metal for fine wedding gifts, however one interpretation could be to give a tin of caviar, oysters, foie gras or other gourmet food as a 10th wedding anniversary gift. Another idea would be to have a day out, or holiday, in an area that used to have a tin mining industry, for instance Phuket in Thailand ! Tin is often used in alloys so consider buying gifts made with a mix of tin and other metals. Bronze is made from tin and copper, and pewter is made from tin and lead so consider buying bronze or pewter gifts for your loved one. Pewter goblets or bronze figurines would be suitable gifts. Bronze is also linked with the 8th wedding anniversary.

Aluminum is very light and strong, and is used to for furniture, pots and pans and products such as tennis racquets. Therefore it should be relatively easy to find aluminum wedding gifts. Photo frames or clocks made out of aluminum would make a nice gift for a wedding anniversary. Some gadgets are made of aluminum or aluminum alloys, due to its lightness and strength. Those who enjoy cooking may appreciate a quality set of pans or utensils.

A stunning, but very expensive, 10th wedding anniversary gift would be diamond jewelry to celebrate ten years together. Diamonds are very hard gemstones which will last a lifetime. Because they are so heavy, they need to be set in strong precious metals such as platinum or gold so a piece of diamond jewelry will set you back a bit but will last forever. Diamonds don't have to be white; colored diamonds do exist but are very rare. If buying a ring as a gift, find out your partner's ring size. One way of doing this and keeping it a surprise would be to borrow a ring he or she wears that fits him or her well. A jeweler should be able to use this to find a ring that fits properly.
