40th wedding anniversary-need ideas

My parents are celebrating their 40 year wedding anniversary 10/5....God Bless them!!!
Anway, my mom LOVES pictures.....I am looking for a nice 40th wedding anniversary frame...Like a "then" and "now" kind. Can someone help me find a nice one? The ones I seen online arent quite what i expected

In addition to that we want to do something else.

What would you your parents if they been married for 40 years?

I think the picture frame is a beautiful idea! How much do you want to spend on the "something else?" GC for a romantic dinner? GC for a romantic getaway?

For my parents' 40th, my brothers and I chipped in and threw a surprise party with our family and their close friends.

Well, we're having a suprise dinner party with the whole family also.
We were going to do a gift certificate for them to go to vegas but im just worried if we get it and they procrastinate and dont use it......
Id say we'd spend a nice amoutn- since it is our parents and its 40 years.....figure $200-ish?

We're doing this next year for my parents - surprise party and gift.

We're going to do a family collage of the last 40 years of them to hang.

In addition, I thought of getting them tickets for a dinner cruise around Manhattan since they live in western NY. We'd go with them and have a treat and view!
