Wedding Anniversaries |

|
|
Wedding Anniversary gift lists seem to vary depending on where you live and where you look. There is a traditional, modern and now an ultra modern list. Don't feel you must adhere to them rigidly especially the ones that are now on protected species lists but have fun. Paper could be a ticket, a trip or a show etc and you can swap them around cause believe me, nobody really wants to wait 75 years for an own choice.
