Reaching your 50th wedding anniversary is a milestone for any couple. You want to announce the celebration to all your friends and family, and you want to announce the anniversary right. How do you pick the right announcement? What do you put in the announcement? How do you make it look just right? Here are a few ideas to make sure your 50th wedding anniversary announcements turn out perfect.

    The Announcement

  1. There are a few possibilities for a 50th wedding anniversary announcement. You can go with one of the 50th anniversary symbols and design your announcement around the symbol. Both the traditional and modern symbol for the 50th anniversary is gold. Yellow roses and violets are the flowers that represent the 50th anniversary. You can also do an announcement with a current picture of you and your spouse or use one from your wedding 50 years ago. Or how about a "then and now" photo collage?
  2. The Wording

  3. 50 years of marriage is quite an accomplishment, so you want the perfect words to announce the achievement. Make sure to include the date and location you were married 50 years ago. It is also okay to mention an anniversary trip or celebration you may have planned. Finally, include a short message or verse that is significant to you and your spouse.

    If you are having a get-together for your anniversary, your wording will depend on whether you are planning a formal party or an informal gathering. If it is a formal party, you need to use first and last names for the host or hostess and for the couple celebrating. Always include the date, location and time. If it is an informal event, you don't have to be as meticulous in the wording. For either type of party, you can choose to include your RSVP information directly on the announcement or enclose a separate response card.
