subject: 50th Anniversary Gift Ideas For The "golden" Anniversary [print this page] A 50th wedding anniversary marks a significant milestone in the life of a couple; and an occasion known as a 'golden' milestone more than warrants a spectacular 50th anniversary gift .
Good is definitely the color of choice and chosen material most often associated with the 50th anniversary; so to celebrate their half century landmark, a lot of couple chose to give each other gold rings. They could definitely exchange these symbols of love on the day of the celebration, whether they be plain golden bands or bands encrusted with diamonds (modern day diamond rings come in styles for men and women.)
They also could exchange other forms of golden jewelry, whether they are necklaces (perhaps a gold chain for him and a heart-shaped hanging pendant for her), bracelets, pendants, watches, etc. Or they may collaborate to treat themselves to a beautiful, elaborate gift that is made of or contains the gold element. They could both have a picture taken and frame the resulting portrait in a gold frame, or even buy themselves a gold table setting.
Naturally, friends and family members of the husband and wife will want to give them presents and tokens on their anniversary too; so luckily, not all presents on this day have to be pure gold. What couple would not appreciate a love seat or silken bed set that shines in its golden hue; on a smaller scale, they also would love to receive a bouquet of golden roses (or perhaps some classically romantic red roses situated in a golden or gold-colored vase), a gold-colored photo frame or album; perhaps one that contains photos of the couple and/or is inscribed with their names.
If friends and family members do choose to 'go for the gold' in celebration of this special couple, they can invest in a 50th anniversary gift thatwhile made of actual goldis still relatively inexpensive. This present can come in the form of a plaque, a small statue or figurine, (most likely one that shows a couple who is in love, or a symbol of love like a cupid, rose or a pair of doves), or a small keepsake box containing mementos of their lives together, such as old photo albums, CDs of favorite music, a DVD copy of their wedding or a slideshow set to music of different scenes from the couple's lives.
