screw the traditional stuff these days, get them something that they will actually use. A gift certificate for a nice restaurant or something that they can do together and will actually use.

Do you have some photos of them at their wedding? You can get all sorts of things made incorporating the photo(s). Paper is the symbol of the first wedding anniversary so perhaps get them a basket of paper products: fancy napkins, paper plates, paper table cloth, and a picnic.
Here are some more ideas: Theatre Tickets are a great gift too.

Traditionally the first anniversary is symbolized with paper. With each year into the marriage the gifts become more precious ans scarce to reflect the growing number of years together.
Suggestions for the traditional gift of paper-
*Origami booklet with origami paper
*Paper tickets to a movie, theatre, concert, etc.
*A first edition of a favorite book
*A scrapbook

Modern times, the first anniversary gift is a clock.
Suggestions for the modern gift of a clock-

Have one of their wedding photos enlarged. Call their photographer, they'll be able to help you.
