One of the most popular Gifts for Fifth Wedding Anniversary is a personalised wooden memory box — and it’s easy to see why. After five years together, you’ve already shared so many moments worth keeping. A memory box lets you gather those milestones — tickets, letters, photos, vows, keepsakes — in one beautiful, handcrafted place.

Each memory box is:

• Made from solid wood and engraved to order
• Available in multiple sizes — from small keepsake boxes to extra-large storage
• Fitted with a metal clasp, with an option to add a padlock for privacy

Personalisation options include:

• Names, initials, or meaningful dates
• Custom messages, handwritten notes, or quotes
• Font matching to your wedding invites or brand style
• Your own design, illustration, or logo engraved
• A printed photo plaque on the outside lid for an extra-special personalised touch

Whether it’s for your partner or from one partner to another, a memory box is a heartfelt way to celebrate five years of life, love, and everything in between.

Absolutely — and that’s what makes these wooden anniversary gifts so special. Every item in this collection is made to order, so you can add a personal message, important date, initials, coordinates, photos, or even a favourite quote. Want to match your wedding font? We can do that too.

Choose from a range of customisation options like:

• Engraving on one or both sides
• Handwritten messages or names
• Font-matching to your style
• Custom designs
• Photo prints (upload your favourite photo and we'll print it on your special gift)
