If you are lucky enough to be married for 75 years you will celebrate your diamond or double diamond anniversary. These anniversaries are very rare occasions.

The current list of wedding anniversary gifts by year was first created in 1937 by the American National Retail Jeweler Association. They devised a list which gave a material or gift for each anniversary up to 15 years and then a different gift material every 5 years up to the 80th Anniversary. Since then British and Modern lists have also been created. You will need to decide which list to use as there are some differences.
