    My grandparents recently celebrated their 60th Wedding Anniversary. If yours are anything like mine they didn't want or need any more "things", like ornaments.

    We managed to get hold of a photo of their wedding, printed it A4(ish) at home in black and white and then got a large photo frame (12x18"). Inside the frame was a mount that was about 3" wide all the way round. All the family then signed the mount, which was then put in the frame. They loved it!!! Can anyone scan a picture and send it to you? You could maybe just get your own family.

    They also got a copy of the Telegraph from the day they married.

    Don't forget the card from the Queen. It costs about £3/4 to be sent to them. You need to know where they were married.

    What about a search on the internet to find out what was happening on the day they married. I can't recall the site at the moment but you can also find out the prices of staple item, scars, songs playing, etc. You could print it out and put it in a frame.

    Hope you can find something that you are happy with.
