I‘m not as far along as you so I don‘t know if we’re dealing with the same thing, but lately at night (not sure why it’s only the evenings), I’m struggling to breathe as my nose gets stuffy and my throat gets a ton of phlegm. These Breathe Right Nose Strips help me a ton, it opens up my nose airway really well. Warning though, I think the sticky part of the strip blocks pores and causes pimples (it does for me) but it’s a small price to pay to be able to breathe and get a good night’s rest.
These help a lot for myself, but if your husband has apnea or something serious it will probably only make him a little quieter. Worth a shot though.
order them now! i keep procrastinating on things like this too.
My husband insists our 70lb dog sleep on our bed every night. I swear I never get more than an hour or two of rest before I wake up for some reason or another, and he doesn't even snore! my cat likes to walk on me, too. and yeah, its cute, how can I get mad that she wants to snuggle?
Yeah, two ways around this -- it can either be that the structure of your nose is working against you, or that you have an inflammation problem
If the problem is the nose structure (something like polyps), you can take a look at these nose stripes. I use them daily, and they help
If your nose is fine, and suspect that inflammation might be the problem, check out this post I wrote

These help a good deal with snoring. They'll reduce it for me, but will not eliminate it.
What completely eliminates my snoring is a CPAP machine. It's a mask on my face that blows air into my nose (or mouth, depending on your sleep style). With that on I do not snore at all.
I am in the exact same position. Breathe Right strips might help reduce it at times.
I have never used AIRMAX nasal dilator. Maybe some else can chime in.
Surgery can help open the airwaves but removing cartilage that is troublesome.
I think the BIGGEST culprit is inflammation. This causes the turbinates to swell.
For some reason this link is a tad expensive, but this is what I buy

nasal strips at night make a huge difference
I've also tried these which are good but fall out
And these which were not comfy to me
I think you can't do much else but these products help. Btw a rhinoplasty is generally cosmetic and doesn't fix a deviated septum. You're looking for a septoplasty. I had one but unfortunately was unlucky and it re-deviated back to how it was.
Edit: also a pro tip you can usually see a deviated septum more clearly if you look at the nostrils.
