50th Wedding Anniversary TShirt to Wear While Toasting the Golden Couple

When the family gathers to celebrate the milestone 50th Wedding Anniversary, why not capture the moment with everyone including guests and the golden couple, wearing one of these "50 Years of Love" tee shirts.

 Gather together for a group photo capturing and celebrating the marriage and true love of the bride and groom! These tees are available in a variety of colors and sizes including Men's, Women's, and Youth. It's best to order a size larger than you normally wear, as there is some shrinking expected. The following showing some of the size/color options available for ordering.

 Over the years my parents have taken photos of each stage and memory of their lives. When we celbrated our parent's 50th Wedding Anniversary there were many photos of the event. Now I think it would have been fun to have the memory of all of us together celebrating the Golden Anniversary wearing these shirts!

   

50th Wedding Anniversary Gift Ideas

Our parents wishes were for there to be no presents, that in essence the gathering of family and loved ones to celebrate their 50 years of marriage was the best present. This was stated on the invitations as "Your presence is the best present". For those however, that will be receiving gifts, and those looking for 50th Wedding Anniversary gifts, following are three 50th Wedding Anniversary gift ideas. Each gift idea has the 50th Wedding celebration them featured, with a variety of ways to enjoy the gift beyond the actual celebration with family and friends.

I am not certain which of the above gifts I like best, however, I am taken with the snowflake ornament because it's pretty enough to have displayed all year and I especially like that it's a Christmas tree ornament. Over the years I have accumulated many family themed ornaments that at Christmas time our decorated tree tells a story of life, love, and family. Which 50th Wedding Anniversary gift featured above do you like best?

50th Anniversary Pearl Rose Cake Top, a Hortense B. Hewitt Wedding Accessory

Recently I became aware of this beautiful 50th Anniversary Pearl Rose Cake Top by Hortense B. Hewitt Wedding Accessories.

 

50th Wedding Anniversary Pearl Rose Cake Topper

There are many things I like about this cake topper and the first is the pearl roses and gold-tone embellished 50th at the bottom center of the heart.  

This cake top stands 5-1/4 inch tall ad 3-1/4 inch diameter and can decorate a cake, or be used as a table decoration, or stand alone as a figurine.

What I like most is a combination of the colors, off white and gold, and the glazed porcelain with the rose and leaf accents. 

When looking at this Pearl Rose 50th Cake Topper, I think it would stand nicely in a curio and admired long after the 50th Wedding Anniversary Celebration!

Happy New Year! And Let The Planning Begin!

Well it is 2011 and just one short year ago, my sister and I began to plan our parent's 50th Wedding Anniversary Celebration which was held on June 11, 2010.

Celebrating such a momentous occasion with family and loved ones was a remarkable experience.

Our planning began with a list of guests, selecting invitations, securing a location to have the party, then deciding on the food choices and service, printing and mailing the invitations, as well as choosing a gift, making a Memory Book, and creating a celebratory movie using Windows Movie Maker.

Your plans may include some of the above activities and it is my hope that you find some items here that are helpful in planning your family's 50th Wedding Anniversary Celebration.

50th Wedding Anniversary Music

Have you chosen music to play at your 50th Wedding Anniversary celebration?

Here are a few ideas for music selection for the special celebration:

1) The couple's First Dance song: My parent's first dance song was "True Love" written by Cole Porter and performed by Bing Crosby and Grace Kelly in the 1955 film, "High Society". I found the True Love version performed by Dean Martin online, purchased and downloaded it and added it to the movie we made as well as a CD we made that we played during the party.

2) Classic Love Songs: Including "When I Fall In Love”, “Some Enchanted Evening”, “Someone to Watch Over Me”, “You Make Loving Fun", “Songbird”, and “Just the Way You Are”.

3) Favorite Songs from Broadway Shows: As a family we all enjoyed the Mama Mia and Fiddler On The Roof Broadway productions and therefore included a couple of songs from these shows in the CD and movie musical compilations.

Hope your planning for your special celebration is going well and that these ideas for selecting music for the party, pre-party, and post parties is helpful!

It's been fun to listen to the CD even today, almost 6 months after the celebration. But why not, we're still celebrating to this day the love, dedication, and commitment of our parent's True Love.
