Your 10th anniversary is a very special one. You have spent a decade as husband and wife, and you deserve to celebrate. The traditional gift for a 10th wedding anniversary is to give gifts of tin or aluminum. The modern gift is diamonds. Using different combinations of these gifts gives you lots of options. - Many things consist of tin, from picture frames to cuff links. Also, you can find many things made form aluminum. Be as creative as you can, taking all the things your spouse likes into consideration. For example, put a picture from when you two first started dating in a tin frame. Or for a funny gift, give your spouse a case of his favorite canned beer (since cans are made of aluminum). You can also give roses that have tin or aluminum edges. This is a thoughtful and traditional gift.
- Give your spouse diamonds. These are much more costly than the metal gifts, but very special. You can give anything from a necklace to a watch. An option is to get a ring or a necklace with 10 diamonds in it to represent the 10 years together.
- Bikes consist of lightweight metals like aluminum. For your anniversary, get bikes, and go on a ride. Make a pact to take one day a month (at least) and go for a ride together. For your anniversary, you can pack a lunch and have a picnic when you get to your destination.
- Plan to go on a trip for 10 days. Go somewhere that you both have always wanted to go see. Or, you can revisit where you had your honeymoon if you haven't been back since. Recreate it by doing some of the same things like going to the same restaurants or staying in the same place. You can even surprise your spouse and call ahead to see if you can get the same room.
