Silver wedding anniversary present

Any ideas what I can buy my husband.
We had a party planned but that has had to be postponed. He is good at presents so I know will have sorted something for me. I am less good and with 2 weeks to go badly need some inspiration!

did you have a specific song play at your wedding? I saw recently on social media, someone bought a record of their first dance song along with a record player for their anniversary. You could probably find a record player second hand

Following on from sleepismysuperpower's post, Not On The High Street do pictures of musical scores, or lyrics, of a particular song which might be nice.
Or a week/weekend away at your honeymoon destination, maybe in the same hotel.

Thanks for the ideas -'sort of on the same
Lines. We signed the register to 'Gabriel's Oboe' from the film 'The Mission'. I bought my son the score and he was learning to play it for our party, that isn't happening.
Husband also loves booking holidays, so he has already booked us night away.
I find buying for men so hard...

How about a copy of a newspaper from the date you got married? My husband is very very very difficult to buy for and for our Golden Wedding I bought him new wellies and a boot bag! I don’t try to match him £ for £.

Mdh2020 - we are on the same page - I got him a boot bag for his birthday!

I bought my parents the Silver Wedding roses for their garden. Might be an option if he's a gardener?

Dad bought mum a set of the silver cutlery she'd always wanted, while mum bought dad a lovely pen he still uses for his daily crosswords, especially now that mum has passed away.
