5th Wedding Anniversary - gift ideas?

My husband and I will be celebrating our 5th wedding anniversary tomorrow night. We have a reservation at the fanciest hotel in town, and plan on enjoying ourselves (and each other) at the hotel, and enjoy the legendary brunch the next morning.

My question is, what kind of gift should I give him, if any?

Wikipedia tells me wood is the traditional gift, with silver being the modern gift.

I am pretty sure my husband will be giving me some wood :blushing: :love: , but what suggestions for gifts for him?

He already has two guitars (wood), doesn't wear jewelry (silver).

He has a whole lot of renovations to finish on the house, so I could go buy him a truckload of two by fours, but that's not really romantic, is it?

I am open to any and all suggestions.

    It sounds like you're both giving each other the most important gift to a healthy marriage ;)

    No need to buy anything, unless you invest in some nice lingerie, etc.

    For wood, I got a nice wood frame for our picture from our first Marine Corps Ball. It looks lovely as a piece with all of his other Marine Corps items.
