Anniversary Gifts

Last month when we went to Tahoe to celebrate our anniversary my husband and I bought this ring. It’s a Herkimer Diamond set in silver. I’m wearing it as my wedding ring since I’ve knocked the diamonds out of my "real" wedding ring so many times.

A second honeymoon, engraved golden rings, an engraved anniversary plate, a scrapbook, a portrait of the couple, or special recorded messages are several gifts that can help create an exceptional golden anniversary.

A couple’s 50th anniversary of marriage is a very special and momentous event that should be commemorated. A 50th anniversary celebration is a very special occasion. There are many unique gifts whether you are celebrating your anniversary or honoring special friends or relatives for their golden anniversary.

Enjoy a second honeymoon

A second honeymoon is a wonderful 50th anniversary gift. Recreating the couple’s first honeymoon at the same location and hotel will give them a chance to relax and contemplate the fifty years of wedded bliss they’ve spent together. The hotel personnel can help you plan your stay if you notify them that the reservations are a 50th anniversary gift. The hotel staff likely has someone dedicated to organizing and preparing activities to make a couple’s stay romantic and unforgettable.

Try having names etched inside the rings

The traditional symbol for the 50th year of marriage is gold which is often used as the inspiration for gifts, like a pair of golden rings or watches. To add a more personal and romantic touch, engrave a short message, the couple’s names or their wedding date onto the gift.

A commemorative anniversary plate that is engraved

Another gift, and somewhat elegant, is a fine bone china plate which will have a special personal engraving to your parents. You can make the plates extra special by having a photograph of the couple engraved on them.

A scrapbook

Collect all the things pertaining to your marriage including letters, mementos and other items and paste them in a scrap book (so as to have a flashback of last 50 golden years.) You can highlight all the reasons why their fifty years of matrimony have been so special by including things like photos of the couple’s children and grandchildren, mementos of some of their greatest accomplishments, lyrics to their favorite songs and much, much more.

A portrait of the celebrants

If you are looking for a unique gift try giving a painting. Pick out a photo with the couple together, like from a wedding, and get a person to make a painting out of the photo. Couples will love seeing an old picture turned into a magnificent piece of art.

Record unique messages

An idea for an anniversary gift that has a strong emotional component to it is a CD that contains the thoughts and feelings of loved ones. You and other people close to the celebrants can call businesses like LifeOnRecord via a toll free number and express your love and appreciation. If you would like to have these notes downloadable to sent on a CD, LifeOnRecord can provide these services. Audio or video recordings from friends and family are a great gift for a 50th wedding anniversary.

Couples sharing their unique 50th year anniversary can do so many different ways, and even a quiet evening at home can be particularly memorable.
