50th Wedding Anniversary
Gold jewelry
is always a great option, and there is a wide variety to choose from, suiting any style. When buying jewelry for your wife, take note of what styles she already has so that you will have a better idea of what kinds of things she likes. Then when you are shopping, get something similar but a little bit different. Gold is also very easy to buy because you can go for yellow or white gold by itself or with any kind of stone.
Real roses coated in 24k gold can be purchased online (see righthand green column), or give a photo of
the bride and groom at their wedding in a gold plated picture
frame. Another option is to purchase a personalized 50th anniversary plate (see top of left column).
Alternatively you can go for gold colored gift. This will then pretty much cover all types of items so you can choose something the couple likes or needs. If they need practical items, do that. If they have everything they need, you can consider something like gold colored artisan glass or a sculpture of an embracing couple.
For the man who collects coins, this is an easy anniversary to gift since you can find a wide selection of unique gold coins to add to his collection. A gold watch might be another great idea for him.
Alternatively, the item does not need to be gold at all if it is a personalized keepsake gift.

- From our Visitors -
We sent the invitation to our 50th wedding anniversary with a picture of us taken when we were engaged. The front of the card said:
”Do you know who we are? Oh, yes you do! Come party with us and help celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary!"
The inside of the card has a current picture of us along with information about the anniversary party. Because we are blessed with so much after fifty years of marriage, we requested: “No gifts please, your presence is our gift”
We received great feedback from everyone about that card!

For my in-law's 50th anniversary, we all went to a fine dining German restaurant which was their favorite. They had immigrated from post-war Germany shortly after they married in their 20's with their three year old son via a ship that took over a month to arrive here. Times were tough then, but they have made a great life for themselves here in Australia and had two more children. As a gift, we got them a porcelain plate with gold trim that was personalized with their wedding picture, names, and anniversary date. They loved it!
