I would need a good idea for a 5th Wedding Anniversary. I know the
theme is supposed to be "wood" for the 5th year but that is not really
important. My wifes b-day is also the anniversary so the gift must be
good! Cost is not really important either. Thanks

When is your anniversary / wife's birthday?  Do you both like to
travel are and or are you able to travel around that time?  Is she a
romantic, sports enthusiast, into fine dining?
Depending on the woman will greatly change what the "perfect"
anniversary would be"  Also, where are you located, in the south near
the beaches in the mountains.  With a little more info ,I would give
you a few ideas.  Are you looking for a "gift" or a outing that will
create an evening or day or weekend she'll never forget?

We are traveling to London and Norway on "the day". However, I was
looking more for a gift rather than travel. I live in Bermuda. Thanks
for your help

mate that is an excellent opportunity u can ever get to rejuvenate
your marriage and give it a fresh breath of air that will keep your
wife respect you more than ever.

how about:

sum up all five years of your marriage by giving her 5 anniversery
cards, each for every year. write your thoughts about how you felt in
those each years and how you enjoyed growing with her. how you
benefited from her by making your life convenient and being with you
in your ups and downs.

the thing is it will need hard work but she will ultimately appreciate
it, she wont go for expensive gift, but she will definitely like to
know how good you felt by living with her all these 5 years.

you say you will come to london by that time...

how about booking a flight (a session) on the LONDON EYE on www.ba-londoneye.com/
you can book some special times and arrangements. and it doesnt cost you much.

when you come to london, u can find lots of romantic places to go
around.  click on this link

and have a look at england's and european places to go out. and
celebrate her birthday and your anniversary at a  trendy london hotel 
and enjoy an English, Frensh, Italian, Mediterranean cuisine and lots
more at Micheline star restaurents at this link

i think consider these options and see what suits you the best. i am
sure you will be spoilt for choices. but afterall her happiness and
satisfaction matters the most.

as you mentioned a gift you want to give try shopping at harrrods-most
popular british store to get the best from the rest. try this link

and taste british fashion with tradition
good luck
