Help!! 50 year wedding anniversary gift.

Erika*, on December 16, 2013 at 1:50 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 13

I completely forgot I'm going to a 50 year wedding anniversary renewal of vows on Saturday. They're extended family (my grandmas cousins), and they didn't register anywhere. It's going to be a full blown wedding though with a BP and everything. I have no idea what to get as a gift. What kind of gifts do you give to a 50 year anniversary? I'm thinking monetary, but how much since they're extended family that I haven't seen since my grandpas funeral 15 years ago. I need some help!!

    Its a little generic, but I love those frames that have a place for the wedding picture, and then one for the 50th anniversary. Like sooo.

    I just looked and the 50th anniversary is the golden anniversary. Are you certain you want a monetary gift? I am thinking that a nice picture frame engraved with their anniversary date would be nice (if they are doing a big blowout, they will probably have a photographer so picture frames may be nice)

    I believe that is the "golden" anniversary.

    I like the ideas! What does "golden" anniversary mean?

    It means that traditionally anniversary gifts are made from gold.
