What is the traditional 60th wedding anniversary gift?
Traditionally, on a 60th wedding anniversary, couples will give each other diamonds – the perfect representation of your long-lasting partnership. The Romans were known for giving their wives circlets of silver or gold for their 25th and 50th wedding anniversaries but it wasn’t until the 1920’s when the diamond was officially appointed as the theme for 60th wedding anniversaries.
Just like a good marriage should be, diamonds are formed over a long period of time, under heat and pressure. They are durable, long-lasting, and precious, just like your love for each other and are a wonderful way to honour a mature and enduring love such as yours.
