14 Year Wedding Anniversary Gift Ideas

Finding a 14 year wedding anniversary gift can be tricky as traditionally this year is celebrated with ivory. Not something that you can find or want to find as it is banned for import in a number of countries

As alternatives go the most natural is the fruit of the Tagua palm! The nut is so hard and white that it can be carved into beautiful pieces of jewellerey and is fairly widely available to buy online. You could always make a trip to Central and Southern America where the Tagua palm trees grow naturally. Each Tagua palm produces the same amount of 'ivory' in one year as an elephant does in a lifetime and it is a renewable resource. Not only does it protect the elephants, it protects the rainforest as well.

To continue with the protection theme you could take a safari to either India or Africa to see for yourselves ivory worn at its best, by an elephant! Safaris are a great way to visit a country and there is so much choice, you can choose to travel in luxury or more basically.

You can also twist the ivory theme and use the colour ivory for your gift inspiration. Beautiful white roses, white leather handbags, an ivory silk tie or shirt, fluffy ivory towels with tickets to a spa, or ivory coloured bubble bath!

You don't just have to stick with an ivory theme, your 14th wedding anniversary can also be celebrated on the modern list with gold and from the gemstone anniversary list with opals.

All of the 14th anniversary gift ideas give you an excuse to travel, and their sources are almost the entire world. You could choose where you want to go and then find if they mine gold, tagua nuts, opals or if you could see elephants. Failing that there is also the anniversary flower list and the gift for 14 years together in flowers is with Dahlias. See if you can grow some together!

Have a great 14th Anniversary!
