The Best Ways for Planning a 50th Wedding Anniversary Party

Celebrating the 50th anniversary of a marriage is one of the most special and memorable occasions in any couple’s life. Spending life together for a period of 5 decades is an incredible achievement in itself. It needs true love, unwavering commitment, loads of patience and a willingness to make a lot of compromises from both the persons. In an age when early divorces are a norm, a couple that spent such a long period of time in a committed relationship is a rare and therefore endearing sight to watch. The 50th wedding anniversary party is a tribute to the couple’s unusual accomplishment.

How to make the preparations

The 50th anniversary is known as the golden anniversary and the celebrations should traditionally revolve around this theme. Gold is a very valuable as well as long-lasting metal and thus symbolizes the long-term commitment between the couple. Whether it is the invitations, party decorations, food preparation, or party favors, you should remember this central theme and make every preparation accordingly.

Sending attractively printed or online invitations to a select few and making venue and other arrangements including catering services, lighting and sound systems, etc. in time is very important to avoid disappointment.

Using a theme that is close to the heart of the couple or something that depicts their personal favorites, talents and hobbies will make the occasion really memorable for them. For example, if one of them has been a sportsman or has been a great sports fan, then to base the theme decorations on his/her favorite sport could be a great experience. And if it could be based on something they both share and enjoy, then that will be the perfect party theme for the 50th anniversary.

Needless to say, the couple will have to be the center of the celebrations. The celebrations should be focused on making the day a pleasantly memorable one for the couple. And one of the best ways is to arrange small speeches of the close family and friends of the couple in which they speak about their relationship and some fond memories and incidences with the couple.

Even while choosing the food and wine, it is best to take the couple’s preferences into consideration while planning the meal. Make the dining arrangements in such a way that the couple gets most of the limelight.

Take pictures of the couple and group photographs with family, friends, etc. Since the couple is most likely to be in their 70s, taking their pictures with their children and grandchildren is a good way to capture the spirit of their long-lasting and thriving relationship. A slide-show of the important life-events in the couple’s life is a great way to revive past memories.

Let the party end on a good note by offering some innovative party favors to the guests as a thank you gift as well as a form of memorabilia. Gold colored photo-frames, bracelets, key-chains, etc. with the couple’s photos on them could be a great gift for the guests to take back home.
