5th & 6th Anniversary Traditional Gifts

We recently celebrated our 6th wedding anniversary and I surprised my husband by continuing giving a traditional anniversary gift. I say surprised because every year he learns about traditional anniversary gifts for the first time (or so it seems).

 I also realized that I didn’t post about the traditional gift I did for our 5th anniversary (probably because I had a newborn) so I will include that in this post too. 

The traditional 5th wedding anniversary gift is wood. To celebrate I put together a breakfast board (on a wooden board) for dinner. To date, it’s probably the meal my kids have been most excited for. 

The traditional 6th wedding anniversary gift is iron. I purchased a cast iron grill to give my husband although I have enjoyed using it too. Pictured are the pumpkin french toast I made for breakfast the following weekend. 

Our wedding cake was a pumpkin spice cake so I feel like pumpkin flavoured items need to be part of our anniversary celebrations too. 

If you follow the tradition anniversary gift giving, let me know in the comments what gifts you have chosen or received.
