It is our Ruby Wedding this summer.  My husband is having me a ruby eternity ring made, it is what he wants to do.

He already wears three rings so another would not be appropriate and I don't have a great deal of my own money anyway.

Any ideas for a ruby wedding gift for him.  so far I have thought of a tie pin or pens but neither feels very imaginative. He has enough cuff links.

I love pens and would love the gift of a nice Cross pen. Or a kite!
What about a days racing at a local track? Or if into gardening, an engraved stainless steel trowel or spade or garden bench.
What are his hobbies?

Ha, Bramble.  Since he finished work he has developed an interest in gardening

Sorry BJ, I can't help with the gift ideas but wanted to say congratulations!
We celebrated ours last November. Long time to be together and something to be proud of
Oh, how about a rose (Ruby Wedding) my sister bought us one, or a tree, or sunlounger?

just about to suggest the same thing, Ruby Wedding Rose bush.  Cant think of anything else, my DH is easy he loves car's and slogan t-shirts, hoodies (as they keep him warm LOL).

Gardening ……….. too late to go to the Chelsea Flower Show  - would he appreciate a trip to Barnsdale where I think that Geoff Hamilton's son does 'tours'? (have a look at the web-site for ideas).  Several garden centres do 'evenings' on various topics, I'll get my thinking cap on!

A watch?

I recently ordered a collage of my hubby's favourate moments in pictures, then framed it. Made a great BD surprise!

I usually try to think of something linked to experience as he is very much into trying out things. A ticket for something? Concert, performance, even a plane ticket to a fancy destination ( you can join too)

Depends on your budget. How about a nice watch, you could get it engraved on the back.

[babyjane]

Thanks everyone.  Since he stopped work he doesn't wear a watch now but thanks for the ideas.

I'm wanting something he can keeep so am looking into the rose bush.  I have a month or two to ponder.  Keep the ideas coming

Ruby port ? Xx

A bench for the garden? X

[babyjane]

Thank you everyone for all your thoughts and ideas.  I have decided on cufflinks and ordered some that are set with a small ruby.
