I would first try to remember some of the stuff that they had their old home and ask guests to buy those things. If it is not a surprise new home shower, get your parents input on what they would want for thier new home. Sometimes when tragic things like this happens, it can be a great financial setback and monetary gifts would be an understandable and wise choice. May God bless you all and I wish the best for you and your family.

if I was your parent I would be so glad just to know that you want to buy something for me with your first salary ... it is so sweet.\nyou can invite then to a nice but not expensive restaurant and celebrate with them.

You mother may like to spend time with you.....can you take her to lunch?.......and get her a small pin or earrings (if she has pierced ears).\n\nMost of all get her a beautiful card....or make one.....just to show your love.\n\n......My mom passed 4 years ago at 88....and she was the best!

Since the traditional gift is cotton, why not a beautiful set of very high threadcount sheets. Put them on the bed, dont wrap them. Light the room with candles, set a picnic with some new china (another traditional gift) and figure out the rest from there. \n\nP.S. Happy Anniversary!

Be happy that they remembered your birthday. Don´t feel spoiled, sometimes parents don´t understand the hints we give them for birthday presents :-)

Go to the family pictures album, take one of that pictures when you were younger holding your DAD!... bring it with you to a print-shop, make a resizing, put it on a beautiful frame and write something beautiful down for him...\nThat will be perfect!

All your ideas are GREAT! The trip to the film festival sounds intriguing. A fun trip with another couple or group of mutual friends sounds like a lot of fun. \n\n I think I would leave the large party and renewal of vows for the 25th Anniversary.

My husband actually had to do this for his parents 50th wedding anniversary.  We got alot of input afterwards from his parents as to what parts they liked the best.  It seems they enjoyed hearing about what they all did as a family throughout the years, such as family vacations, special Christmases, that sort of thing.  My husband said a few humorous things regarding all that too.  They also liked hearing how they were a good example of what love and marriage is all about.  I think once you start bringing up all your good memories, your speech will practically write itself.  Good Luck!

I couldn't really think of something for you to get your boyfriend, but I think it'd be cool if you got his mom and/or dad too something. Nothing big but like a candle or something. That'd be cool. I bet they'd appreciate it.

I wonder  why  i am answering  this.MY  daddy  died APRIL  6, 2006. But  i  would get  them  both a  gift  that  has  you  in  it.  example  a  mug  cup  with  your  pictute on  it.They  look  expensive  often  times  costing  under  10  bucks.MAybe  something  you  made  example:A  box  of his favorite  cookies  or  a  cake  he  likes.OR  have  some  one  make  him one.I  had  a personal picture  cake  made for  my  day for  about  6  bucks.He  loved  it. Or maybe a  picture  wallet   of  photos  of  you  from  a  baby  till  now  .  Or  one of  the whole  family  he  can  tuck a  way  at  work  and  pull  out  to  new  people.  My  dad  had  a  small  picture  album  at  his  desk  i made of  me+ mom  +  our  dog  and  granny  and   the whole family. i  was  a  way  when  daddy  died  but<  mom  says  he had  the  picture album  i  made  5 years  ago  in  his  hand when  he  took  his last  breath. THose  are  things  dads  love.  things  where  your  in  it.   Happy  fathers  day daddy love  star

You are lucky! Give them your love and care. Give them something that they have cherished, something not too expensive, yet something that they would treasure. If you had given some hint as to their age, I would have suggested something. But I  am sure you know them too well, and you will come up with some brilliant idea. Just think about it.

The letter & the photo ideas are nice ones. As a mother, I can tell you that the best presents are always those that come from the heart. They needn't cost much (if anything at all). just so long as it's given with all the love you have for your mother. My daughter has given me "World's Best Mum" certificates & stuff like that, but the best thing ever from her, was a photo of her at her school prom with a poem that she'd writen herself, about how she felt about our relationship. Stuff like that is totally unique, a keepsake, memories that you can look back on with love in years to come. Give her something that shows how much you love her - I know she'll be more pleased with that than if you spent loads of money on something that any daughter could buy for her mother.

Check out Yahoo! Gift Finder ( http://shopping.yahoo.com/giftfinder/ ). They have good ideas. You click on the occasion ("Birthday" in this case), then gender/age range, then relationship ("father"), then "Lifestyle", then you get a list of suggestions.

Your first anniversary should be very special and it is paper....so I would recommend for you to write her a letter on how your first year of marriage has meant to you and maybe enclose that in a gift you have for her.

write/find some good poem, and use your creativity with some flower pictures in powerpoint and make a nice image out of it. Then get a real good Frame sold especially for anniversaries, and insert the printed image(poem) in the frame. that wud be a nice thing with a jewel and flower gift. Also get some nice yankee candles...
