This is an interesting idea...I read about it somewhere before and always wanted to try it.
I would say find out what 3 favorite restuarants he like for 1) appetizers, 2)main course and 3) dessert. Once you find that out take him to all three in one night one for the appetizer, one for the main course and one for the dessert this could be very fun and it is different from the ordinary. It is also creative. Or use that information to set a picnic up under the stars on the beach that includes his favorite appetizer, main course and dessert.
Or you can do a surprise dinner party to show him how much you care about him. I did this for my boyfriend's going away party. I secretly invited all of his family and friends to his favorite restuarant. I reserved a place for us to sit. I also bought decorations and decorated our section. I purchased cameras to place on each table for picture taking. I also made a "moneybox" for people to give money. People also brought gifts. I had a cake made as well. This could be fun and exciting. Since it is at a restuarant people can purchase their own meals and decorations are not expensive because many can be made.
Or take that entire day and go to a spa...get him the guy's package and your the girls package but meet later for a couple's massage and a sauna.
These are just some ideas.

oh young love. that's how it was btwn me and my first love off and on again. good for you saving it for marriage i hope you stick to this or you will regret it. but unfortunatly not much else to do but make him a really good meal. he'll appreciate it but just so you know it's off and on again b/c he' probably having sex w/other girls when you're not together just to get that release. it's how boys are. that's why me and my ex kept breaking up b/c i was virgin. so before you put in all this effort for a 6mos. anniversary make sure that what's not going on. a good nice meal will do the trick and you can keep it under 30 dollars by the way what is HE planning to do for you. becareful i don't want you to get hurt like i did. i ended up giving it up and guess what he dumped me for good so be smarter than i was. ok people some these ideas are cute but we are talking a/b a 16 yro girl w/ a $30 budget.

not sure if you can keep this under $30 but maybe. since you say "sex" is not an option, i agree. which makes me think you and he have a little deeper relationship then what seems acceptable today. anyway, my wife and i have always enjoyed marriage retreats. don't let the marriage throw you, many singles, dating, and marrieds attend because they are all interested in developing relationships that are not rooted in just sex. these retreats may be one day to three days and they are usually christian focused non-denominational. so you can be budhist and still go and have fun. we have met many types of people at these retreats . some of the better ones are by Gary Smalley's company, Dr. Dobsons foundation, and Catholic/Episcopal Church goups.
Google, "marriage retreats" or similar names, maybe Catholic retreat, Gary Smalley, or Marriage Encounter, Cursillo, etc. All of these will return search results.
If they are running a local venue then just the cost of the program is about $30. If you travel to Ark, Ala, or local travel, then of course there is other costs. but believe me they are fun, full of worship, great presenters, and mainly give you and your significant other an opportunity to learn about your desired combined futures. if you have a church pastor ask them about what i am talking about.

You said you have tons of pics? Make an album of your twos lives together so far. A neat idea (I think) does he have a key to your place? If not make him one (if your ready) and wrap it up. I did that for my husband before he moved in with me and he was blown away. I had already made room in the closet and the drawers and made him feel at home.
Depending on the type of relationship goals you both have a card is a must rather it is mushy or funny depends on your own taste. Also-all men love a good long backrub and scented oils are not expensive.
Hope this helps :)

Unless you trying to get him an a**-whooping, don't do the matching shirt idea from Tabita...LOL
How about you go to the place where you had your first date? Or, make him his favorite meal - guys love a women who has slaved over his favorite meal in the kitchen all day...works for my hubby every time.
Good luck and Happy 6 Months!!! It is a big deal...I used to keep track of monthly anniversaries.

i do no longer help asking human beings for suggestions in simple terms by fact that's lazy (in spite of the undeniable fact that it rather is a factor of it). i think of the technique of springing up your very own suggestions - looking them, analyzing different books or the worldwide or however - teaches you and makes you a greater helpful author lots greater effective than taking human beings's plots will. Writing a narrative isn't all, it is likewise having a deeper information of it next time you do it. and that i do no longer likely sense that obtaining plots from those with instruct you that.

Give him something related to his favorite activity or interest. If he's into a team, get him the team's hat and jersey/shirt. If he's into a band, get him something related to the band. If he's into bird-watching, get him new binoculars. Actually, most guys would like binoculars even if they aren't into bird-watching. Guys like gadgets, so gadgets can be a great gift.
Good luck and have fun!

Howabout making something he like from your own hand eg cook a dinner, sew a scarf and make a card. But if it was me, I will make my own cake, cook a private dinner and most importantly, I will show up at his house at the most unexpected time with the cake and the present.

a poem, write a song, make him his favorite dinner, go to your local planetarium and ask them to spell something like, "I love you ___" in the stars for you, go to a minor league baseball game and get a message on the giants screens there (minor league games are cheaper than major, obviously), send him on a scavenger hunt with small gifts of little things he's been wanting or has wanted to try...

Find out what his favorite thing to do is (whether it be sports, cars, whatever) and find something under $30 that he can use for it. For example, if he's into cars, you can get him pinstriping. If he's into football, you can get him a Nerf ball. (etc. you get the idea)
