The 22nd year wedding anniversary might not be as big of a milestone as your 20th or 25th, but it’s still a very long time to have been together and all wedding anniversaries are special in their own way. As you will want to let your partner know just how you feel about them and have done for so many years, buying a special 22nd wedding anniversary gift can be made easier thanks to the different traditions that are associated with the year in question.

Surprisingly, there is usually a traditional themed wedding gift that is associated with a particular year but with the 22nd wedding anniversary there isn’t one. That means you can either opt for copper or the gemstone that is associated with the 22nd wedding gift, or you can have free reign to buy your loved one something he or she would absolutely adore. It’s normally the earlier years’ wedding anniversary gifts that have certain flowers associated with them, but for 22 years of marriage there are no particular ones. That doesn’t necessarily mean you shouldn’t buy any flowers for your wife this year, it just means that you can buy her favorite ones and have them delivered to your home or to her place of work for that extra special feeling.
