Wedding anniversary gift for parents

My parents’ wedding anniversary is next month and I still can’t decide what to prepare as a gift. It’s their 32 anniversary and they don’t want a huge celebration, but I still want to give them something. Last year there were couple opera tickets and the year before that there was a family trip booked for them. This year these things wouldn’t work, I suppose, to idk what to do. Maybe a photo album with all of their photos printed? Any ideas or examples?

Hamper of nice food?
I never even knew buying presents for your parents anniversary was a thing. Wouldn’t expect a present from our children. They probably have no idea how long we’ve been married either.

I did a photo album for my mom 2 years ago, so maybe you can do the same as a gift? Find all of their old photos, like from when they were young and just married or just met, copy them, if necessary and get a big photo album to place all these photos in.
You can ask other relatives for the pictures, too, or maybe their friends. If there are nice pictures that are old or washed out, you better digitize them and do a little editing (remove the scratches, make them brighter and so on, Photoglory is good for that or just use Photoshop) before printing them out. Once all the photos are printed, try to sort them chronologically so that they would logically follow each other. You'll get a nice memory lane as a result, I think they'll like it.

@Celticdawn5 everyone is different, my parents had little celebrations for their wedding anniversaries, my dad would always bring my mom flowers and my brother and I would prepare small touching gifts for them.

@Celticdawn5 yeah, I though about preparing a nice dinner for them!
@Sweetener12 sounds complicated but cool. I still have time, so I'll probably try completing it! Thanks!

What about a video of all happy memories with music to it? You can put all the videos you have together on imovie and watch it with some popcorn?

@albustydumbledore I LOVE the idea! thanks!
