The thirtieth anniversary is the Pearl Anniversary and all
gifts should be made of or include pearls. Pearls could be
expensive, but there are some good deals to be found (see below).
However, the gift does not have to be pearl jewelry, but could be an item
(furniture, hair brush, etc.) with a pearl finish. However, men
remember, your wife of thirty years would really like that pearl jewelry -
even if she says "you do not need to get me anything." If
you would like to stay with a them for the gifts, we suggest something
nautical or tropical, since pearls evoke the image of pearl divers in the
South Pacific cultivating oysters on the warm, clear ocean floor. Thirtieth
Anniversary Gift Ideas:
-
For Her: Pearl Jewelry
-
For Him: Mother of Pearl Gemstone Globe or Map
-
For Them: A cruise to Hawaii and/or the South Pacific
-
For Them: Mother of Pearl Platter/Servingware
