Wood Anniversary Cards (5th Anniversary)
Wood anniversary cards for the 5th anniversary
Wood is the traditional UK symbol for the 5th wedding anniversary. Five years is the first proper milestone, and wood stands for roots. A framed print is wood and paper at once, which is why it suits this year so well.
Year five usually gets marked properly - a meal out, other people involved. The card wants to be the one they keep on the shelf afterwards.
The modern list says silverware for this year, the flower is the daisy and the stone is sapphire - useful alternatives if the material itself doesn't suit them.
