What do you give for a 10 year wedding anniversary

10 year tin anniversary gift featuring mini bottles of gin and tins of garnish

To mark 10 years, the wedding anniversary gift is traditionally tin – which doesn’t sound particularly romantic, but the fact it symbolises strength and resilience certainly is. If you want to go down the traditional route, presents that represent tin will nod to your long-lasting commitment. 

You can select a present that’s large or small, and there is certainly scope to find something personal and meaningful. Shopping for a lover of flowers? Then a metallic tin-style vase would be a cute touch to mark a 10 year anniversary. Maybe there is a certain fragrance that reminds you of your wedding day – you can find a candle in a tin to evoke the scent of your wedding perfume. Shopping for a 10-year anniversary gift for someone with a sweet tooth? Then you’re in luck, there is a huge array of luxurious chocolates, biscuits and more in pretty boxes and tins. 

If you want an alternative and a more contemporary representation of your love, then diamonds are the modern 10-year anniversary gift of choice. And what could be better than shopping for every girl’s best friend? Actually, let’s be honest, the right diamond gift can be everybody’s best friend. 

You’ll love our selection of traditional and contemporary gifts – there is something for everyone.
