The traditional gift associated with the third wedding anniversary is Leather! As with all of the years and their associations, there is reasoning behind this. Leather symbolises your bond and is tough, flexible and durable. A leather handbag might be the first thing that comes to min but there are lots of quirky options out there to make this anniversary your own when it comes to gifting.

Leather Third Wedding Anniversary – The History
As you reach your third wedding anniversary, it is leather that symbolises your bond. Leather is a tough, durable yet flexible material and it is said that it represents how your marriage and relationship should be in this year. You’ve grown stronger together and formed more of a solid bond over the past years, but it is equally as important that you retain flexibility and endurance too. Allowing your marriage to grow and expand, but be strong enough to handle anything that comes your way is important. Leather represents that shift and strengthening of your relationship.
Take a look at these gift ideas to find a perfect third year anniversary present for your partner…
