Even though 35 is not one of the biggest milestone anniversaries, it’s still worth celebrating with a great gift. The traditional gift for 35 years of marriage is coral and the modern gift is jade. Both stones symbolize longevity and strength, two traits that are certainly present in a marriage that has lasted this long. The gemstone for this anniversary is emerald, another gorgeous stone found in many pieces of jewelry.
While jewelry is the first gift that comes to mind for women, we’ve also included several home decor and fashion items on this list. If you’re lacking creativity, you can shop for something that’s either coral or jade in color, rather than for the actual stone. If you really want to wow, think about planning a vacation with your spouse where you can check out some actual coral reefs. Not sure where to go? Gift a travel gift card and pick a place together.
