Unique and beautiful ideas for a 5th Wedding Anniversary
The traditional 5th wedding anniversary is a gift made of wood. There’s a beautiful idea that wood represents the strength of an established tree that has maybe weathered a storm or two and the roots have deepened. A marriage in it’s fifth year certainly shares some of those qualities!
There are so many brilliant ideas for a wooden themed wedding anniversary gift, so here’s a little inspiration round up for you.
A Wooden Destination Print
Capturing your journey so far, this beautiful wooden artwork will be a great feature for your wall and a wonderful conversation piece. List out where you met, the places that were important as you fell in love, first holidays together, where you popped the question, where you got married, where you honeymooned, children’s names and birthdates, ANYTHING is possible.
Such a unique way to chart your journey and remember the good times you’ve had so far (with many more to come)
A Token Wooden Couples Gift
We have some really beautiful wooden couples gifts that are always well received. Each person gets one of these keyrings and they always love the “togetherness” vibe. You can choose a house that splits into half for when you’re both out and about, or joins together with interlocking hearts for when you return home.
The lobster claws are for true fans of “Friends” who believe that lobsters mate for life and hold “claws” underwater.
Each wooden keyring can be personalised with a name, or with initials, or left blank because the different colours of wood will help you remember who the keys belong to. And if you love the idea of a wooden keyring but want something a little more individual, we have these beautiful wooden keyrings that come with a fabulous tweed tag.
The wooden part of the keyring can be engraved with absolutely anything. The coordinates of the home you share together (handy if you – or your keys – ever get lost), or maybe of the place you met, or where you got married? Or you might prefer to have a sentence or two; a line from a song that means something to you; a funny in-joke between you; a quote you love. We can even scan your handwriting and engrave that onto the keyring. Such a heartfelt gift.
Wooden Personalised Photo
If you have a favourite photograph of the pair of you, or a place you have loved, or even your whole family, this is a stunning way to reproduce it. The top and bottom bands of the image fade away to reveal the warm natural wood grain below. So original and a bit of a show stopper if we’re honest. Simply EVERYONE loves these wooden photos.
Bespoke Coastline Clock
Time for something completely different! Capture a favourite coastline with these wonderful wooden clocks. Printed with your choice of colour these clocks are much loved centerpieces of time well spent. The warm wood paired with the semi translucent colours make an exceptional piece of art.

- A day trip to your local arboretum or forest. Go hug some trees and maybe take a picnic. A great way to enjoy your anniversary together
- Plant your very own tree. Either at home (make it fruity – I don’t mean THAT – I mean actual fruit. A plum or apple tree could keep you in crumble for years.
- Invest in a handmade wooden box to store your memories and love tokens over the years.
- Go on an axe throwing date. I mean, why knot? (see what I did there).
- Buy some wooden wine goblets or whiskey tumblers. You won’t be able to bung them in the dishwasher (so I’m OUT) but it will make you feel like you’re a cast extra on Game of Thrones (okay, I’m back IN).
- Hop in a wooden canoe, ride an old wooden rollercoaster, go for a horse and cart ride. There are so many ways to get creative with wooden themed anniversary dates and gifts!
