5 Year Dating Anniversary Ideas
Five years together marks a significant relationship. Couples who have been dating for that long may find buying anniversary gifts has become challenging. The gift should represent the relationship and what it means to each individual, while reflecting the love that should exist strongly after five years of courtship.

Jewelry
-
Jewelry is an age-tested gift. Whether it is an engagement ring or a symbol of a long-term commitment, jewelry can be manly or feminine. Suggestions are traditional rings, earrings, matching necklaces or other pieces symbolizing the love and commitment of the relationship.
Wooden Love Spoon
-
A wooden love spoon is a unique Celtic celebration gift. The spoon can be engraved and hung on a wall as a decorative piece. Some spoons are designed with the number five, some spoons have good luck charms weaved through the piece, while still others display Welsh dragons. A fan of Celtic decoration will enjoy this piece, possibly engraved with the names of both lovers.

Five-Day Cruise
-
Take a cruise together, one day for each year of the relationship. The destination matters less than the quality time together. The goal is to evaluate and enjoy the relationship, and a quick cruise getaway offers quiet time with limited, if any, interruptions.
Engraved Gifts
-
Engrave a gift, such as a wood jewelry box or personalized photo frame. Metal, wood and many other porous surfaces can be engraved with a name and date. Place a photo of you and your mate at a favorite location into an engraved frame, offer your man a personalized cigar box or other hobby memorabilia, or offer your woman an engraved jewelry box, perhaps with a piece of jewelry inside.
