Golden Wedding present ideas
I'm looking for inspiration for a present for a Golden Wedding anniversary (50 years - quite an achievement!).
Any thoughts gratefully received!

We had to get a gift for my inlaws 40th anniversary.They are both keen on the garden, more sitting in it nowadays as they are elderly.We bought them a stone sundial and some unusual shrubs/ bushes (no idea what - not a gardener ) We also got the children to do one of those paint your own ceramics and they did plates/ platters on a ruby wedding theme.
Don't know if that helps?
If they aren't close family then a less personal gift but well received is theatre vouchers...... will keep pondering

Depending on age/mobility would endorse the idea of a treat as opposed to an ornament etc. Again rather depends on financial circumstances but getting together with others to pay for complete package - taxi, meal, theatre etc?
Is often done 'in memory of' but also known it for Golden Wedding - inscribed bench somewhere they like to walk/ somewher special to them as a couple?

A friend did 40 ruby/red presents for her parents' 40th - as simple as a red pen and a reel of red cotton. Could do the same for Gold/yellow - 50 items.
Alternatively I think that theatre tokens are really nice idea - they can go and see something as a treat and beforehand you could do tea at the Ritz /other post hotel if not London. My mum and dad would love that - couple of years for them though.
