    You have not mentioned how much budget you have? Assuming you are planning it to be a big one..
    Get a funky invitation card printed and personally send it to all your relatives and friends and mention that it's a surprise. Buy some nice clothes for your parents, decide the menu and a customized cake well before hand.
    if you can prepare a collage of your parents pics and special moments from childhood and set up a projector and give a slide show by making a movie with songs(you can get a lot of such software online). Gift them a nice framed collage of such moments. Arrange garlands with red roses. If you can afford still, buy gold or platinum rings.
    make a little floral decoration with colorful curtains to make the day special for your family.
    You can also pack some small return gifts for the guests.
    dont forget to take snaps on that day to capture the spcial moments

    there are many options for return gifts depending on your budget
    bangle boxes, cup saucer sets, ice cream cups sets, some bowls in steel or boxes in plastic which are very useful for ladies etc..
    go to a wholesale market place in your city and do window shoppin you can find a lot of ideas there..
    I will post more if i get more ideas

    Hi Priya,

    Good to hear. Plan for a close family & friend circle party - with cake cutting. Ensure to give some gifts as remembrance. Dont forget to take snaps. And I would suggest, additionally (or) alternatively plan for visit to some Elder's home / Children Orphanage and share some time with them. If its in your budget, go for food, clothes for them. I am sure, your parents will be very much happy for it too...


    Regards,

    Chithra

    Collect visuals, pictures etc. of your parents during these 25 years. These could involve their wedding pictures, photos of you and your siblings as kids, family outtings etc. I mean anything.

    You could make a collage or a display it through a projector during that party. I am sure it will bring memories alive and make your parents very happy.
