Every wedding anniversary is worth celebrating, but there's just something about the tenth anniversary that feels, well, different. A whole decade of love and commitment is pretty momentous; it deserves an anniversary gift to match. So, what should you give them? Well, on top of 10 more years of happiness, tin and aluminum are the traditional gifts for the major milestone.
Yes, it sounds pretty random when it comes to anniversary gifts, but the meaning behind it holds a lot more weight than you would think. According to Rachel Marturello, a Florida-based wedding planner at Good Times Styled Events, the elements represent the durability, flexibility and shine of your marriage. Metal, right?
Now, we totally get if your mind is drawing a complete blank when it comes to tin or aluminum gifts — or any gifts in general for your wife, husband or your favorite couple. That's where we come in. Below, we've rounded up some of the best 10-year anniversary gifts to celebrate your marriage, including a sturdy and stylish aluminum suitcase and tin ring dish. And if you don't want to lean into tradition, we also threw in options like the coziest plush robe and a warm perfume that smells just like your beloved's embrace. Take a peek at all of them below!
Is hubby the cook in your household? Then, he'll love the recently released Titanium Always Pan Pro from Our Place. In fact, if he's a real home cook then it's probably already on his wishlist.
While the Always Pan is known for its multi-use design, this new pro model has everything the original had with a bunch of improvements that fans have been begging for. According to Our Place, it has the first-ever nonstick technology that's coating-free (no chemicals), it has a tri-ply construction and a stainless steel exterior, quick-heating aluminum core and long-lasting titanium interior. Its surface is also 300% harder than stainless steel, making it "virtually indestructible," so you'll definitely get your money's worth with this one and he'll love it for years to come.
Show off his love for "Man's Best Friend" with a print of your fur baby's breed. Inspired by mid-century blueprint designs, the poster is so much more than a drawing of a pup. It includes "design specs" and other details about the breed, like origins and temperament, that made him fall in love with your pet. You can choose from 100+ different breeds.
Fun fact: The New York Times has published over 60,000 front pages since it was first launched in 1851. Turn any of those front pages into a custom 500- or 1000-piece puzzle, like, say, a wedding date? Perhaps? (Yes.)
You have two options here: Simply give the doting dad the redemption code to customize his own reel, or you can handpick seven of your favorite snapshots and surprise him.

With chic metallic accents, these sturdy and downright charming espresso cups will add a touch of joie de vivre to any day-to-day routine.

The opportunities are endless.
Ah, fondue night. Whether you're team chocolate or team cheese, the joy of dipping bread, meats or fruit into molten goodness is undeniable.

While you never want to take a wedding ring off, sometimes you have to to keep it safe — and that's where this dish comes in. Practical, sweet and sentimental, the bowl is a lovely way to ring in a decade full of love.

You're also going to need some paper —these mini notecards and envelopes are perfect.
