Wedding Anniversary Marriage of Fourteen Years - Ivory 

The flowers associated with the fourteenth wedding anniversary are Dahlias and the gemstone representing this anniversary is agate.  

The gem stone associated with this anniversary is moss agate which is believed to brings good luck to its owner while averting bad luck.

This stone has traditionally been considered to have a special relationship with nature due to its pattern resembling moss. Traditionally, it's been considered a good stone for people involved in botany or agriculture, and it is also claimed that it can be used to establish a connection with nature spirits.

Traditional gifts for the fourteenth wedding anniversary include elephant-friendly ivory carvings, elephant photography, elephant artwork, faux ivory inlaid boxes.

In order to disassociate the fourteenth wedding anniversary from the ivory poaching which endangered the species, some couples substitute opal for ivory. This gemstone is very much part of Australian culture, and can result in a memorable back to the outback wedding anniversary party. If you live in Australia, look up some of the places you can visit - such as shearing sheds or fossicking  - to add to your memories of your life together.
