 Good one!
I don't think I'd want a tangible gift. Rather, I think I'd want to be with my kids and grandkids and maybe hire a photographer to get a family portrait done.

Re: Say you were married for 40 years
This is for my best friends parents who have been pretty much like my parents (even though I have my own) for the past 20 years. They even call themselves grandma and grandpa C to my kids.

Ahhh, okay, different situation. I agree about a GC to a restaurant or maybe hire a photographer to take family pictures for them.

Re: Say you were married for 40 years
My parents 40th anniversary is in January and DH's parents 50th is in February. We are chipping in with the other siblings to send each set of parents on a trip.

This is a really nice idea to do.
If it were me, I would like to spend the time with my children & grandchildren, then I would go on a long cruise or go back to Italy.

Re: Say you were married for 40 years
When my parents celebrated their 40th we threw them a surprise party. Went over well.
Someone gave them Ticketmaster GC which they thought was really cool.
We've also given our parents hotel vouchers for Atlantic City or Foxwoods, concert tickets, Broadway tickets. . . things like that.
