A Preview to Something More

Celebrating a big milestone—whether it's your fifth, twenty-fifth, or fiftieth anniversary—may mean you want to do more than just go out to dinner. Purchasing a piece of jewelry with an occasion in mind can be the perfect way to reveal your celebratory dinner—in Turks and Caicos, in two days. Giving an experience is a memorable way to honor your commitment to each other by spending time alone together. The trip will be all the more memorable if there's a brand-new anniversary gift you can wear while you're there. Pack your bags, and don't forget the new beautiful diamond necklace that goes with your favorite dress!

A Gift For Him

Men's jewelry is not as common as women's, but it's just as wonderful to receive. A genuine gold band or a nice watch are happily worn for years to come. For the man in your life, choose a simple style to go with everything, or give him a one-of-a-kind occasion piece for formal events and candlelit dinners. Choosing a harder metal, such as platinum, will ensure years of wear without showing signs of damage; follow a similar principle when selecting gemstones. Diamonds and sapphires are particularly durable stones that pair well with men's jewelry. This year, surprise him with a unique and timeless anniversary gift he'll wear fondly.

Celebrate Everything After Your Wedding

After a wedding comes a marriage, and marriage is full of so much more than stolen kisses and romantic date nights. It's full of adventure and fun, family and new beginnings. This year, give an anniversary gift that's about more than just remembering you wedding. Give her a commemorative charm bracelet with charms to recall all the significant moments you've shared: a pine tree from the time you went camping on your honeymoon, a baby bottle for the birth of your firstborn, an Italian flag from your first overseas trip together. Charm bracelets are the perfect anniversary gift to keep building on, year after year. Make it a tradition and give her a new charm for every anniversary!

Celebrate Growing and Building

Celebrate everything you've built together by giving a gorgeous mother's ring, inset with the birthstones of each child or family member. This piece of jewelry comes from the heart and truly lauds the accomplishments of you as a couple. If the birthstones are too fragile for daily wear on the hands (emeralds, opals, and pearls, for example), consider a custom necklace pendant. Just as your love and your family are unique, so too should your jewelry be!
