Can you think of anything more special than a 50th wedding anniversary celebration? A couple you know, whether it be family or friends, have spent half a century together and you want to give them a gift to let them know how meaningful this momentous occasion is. Traditionally, 50th wedding anniversary gifts are gold. The flowers that are associated with a 50th anniversary are violets. There are many unique gifts that you can create or purchase for the lucky couple including a special party where the couple can renew their marriage vows, or a 50th celebration using gold as the decoration theme from centerpieces to paper plates and cups and golden Chardonnay wine.

Couples celebrating their 50th have been together for a long time, and they probably have everything they need, so when thinking about a gift, stay away from items that they probably already have. Gifts like dinner certificates, weekend trips, cruises, airline tickets, etc. make a lot more sense because they can be used whenever the couple wishes and dont add clutter to their home.

If you want to stick to the true tradition of gold, than give them a trip to the Swift River in the beautiful state of Maine, where they can have great time mining for gold!

You can also make a wish tree that you can paint gold and fill the branches with pictures of the couple, their family and friends, and event in their lives that they cherished. You can add theater tickets, gift certificates, etc. to make it truly special. Any personal gifts given to a couple celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary is a nice addition to their years spent together.
