24 Year Anniversary Gift Guide

24th Anniversary Gifts: Musical instruments

Twenty-four years is musical instruments — a slightly playful symbol after the more formal years. The trick is to honour the theme without literally giving an unwanted violin: lessons, concerts, vinyl, and sheet music all count.

Traditional

Musical instruments

Musical instruments stand for harmony — a marriage two and a half decades in still finding new sounds together.

Modern

Musical instruments

Musical instruments appear on both lists at year twenty-four.

24-years anniversary gift ideas

  1. 1

    A guitar, ukulele, or piano

    Only if they have actually mentioned wanting one.

  2. 2

    A year of music lessons

    For an instrument they have always meant to learn.

  3. 3

    A pair of concert tickets

    For an artist that means something to both of you.

  4. 4

    A custom vinyl pressing

    A short record of songs that meant something — first dance, road trips, kids.

  5. 5

    A turntable upgrade

    A real one, with a phono pre-amp and proper speakers.

  6. 6

    A handlettered framed score

    Of your first dance or a song you both love.

The photo gift idea

A printed memory of 24 years

Pair the musical-gift theme with photographs: a vinyl pressing of a favourite first-dance song with a single framed photo from the wedding day is one of the most personal twenty-four-year gifts on this page. The photo is easy if you can pull it from a shared family album.
