It's OK. It doesn't mean you have to put away your party shoes just yet.

Take a moment to pause to enjoy each other's company and relish in the freedom of life before kids.

Anniversary presents ought to mirror the phase of your life you're in. That's why photos for your home or office are the ideal gift of love, with memories that live on and on.

If your partner says your presence is the best present, it may very well be hyperbole.

Rather than cluttering the home you share together with more useless 'stuff', express your love in a unique way with some wall art that will become one of their most treasured possessions.

Five years together is nothing to sniff at, so a gift that is personalised - something that is quintessentially them - is the way to go.

In fact, wall art may even become your 'thing'.

You know, a special give-giving tradition to honour all those anniversary milestones.

Consider a thoughtful quote on a colourful single canvas. It might be a love poem or it might be an arty visual tally of all the days, months, minutes and seconds you've been together.

You might even like to combine a love quote with some couples photos.

An even more creative idea is to create a collage featuring photos - one from each of the five years - of you sharing a special moment together.

Now that's a tradition worth keeping.
