    Congratulations, Lovelyjubb!

    I made a photobook (paper!) for my husband of everything which happened from the day we met to the day we married. I included photos but also other things too - the first email he sent me, a photo of the pub where we met etc. You could scan stuff in if you have a scanner. There are several sites online where you can upload your photos/scanned images and then produce a gorgeous really professional looking glossy book.

    Good luck with whatever you decide!

    Congratulations on your anniversary. :beer:

    My husband made paper chains and hung them all over the ceiling in the lounge, was very sweet.

    We did little gifts involving photo's (being paper) and tickets.
