Discover our latest podcast
1. 50 years of marriage: After 50 years of marriage, you surely know the secrets of a lasting couple. When we are in a happy relationship, the time flies by. Your partner represents a precious ally. Moreover, just like gold, a couple that has spent half a century together does not fear the erosion of time. It is eternal, and becomes even more beautiful as the years go by.
The flame of your love is as alive as it was the day when you said 'I do'. Your couple has undoubtedly taken on many challenges and achieved many great things. And it's time to celebrate this union!
Gold symbolises prosperity and wisdom. This rare, solid and precious metal has always been associated with strength and fortune. In ancient Egypt, it was a sacred metal that symbolised the immortality of the pharaohs. After all these years of marital happiness, your relationship is more than ever solid, precious, unalterable.
2. How to celebrate: 50 years of marriage is an opportunity to reaffirm the special bond that unites you to your partner. Why not take advantage of your golden wedding anniversary to renew your wedding vows? You can choose between a civil ceremony, blessing your union a second time at the Church or organizing a symbolic secular ceremony.
Admittedly, this renewed commitment has no legal effect, but its moral value is still precious. With just your closest family and friends or with a big party, it's up to you! Take the opportunity to offer new vows that will be added to the first. You can also engrave a special message on your old wedding rings to immortalise this moment.
3. Gift ideas for 50 years of marriage: Finding the perfect gift is still a puzzle, even after 50 years of marriage. Tradition has it that the gift you offer to your loved one is related to the name of the wedding anniversary - in this case, gold.
For a gift of elegance and refinement, opt for a gold-coloured pocket watch. An old-fashioned shaving set in a golden colour is also an exceptional present. Better yet, give him a 'best husband' gold medal! Remember to personalise it by engraving your first names and the date of your wedding.
Whatever your choice, this wedding anniversary must above all be an opportunity to celebrate your love. No need to look for an original gift or keep to the theme at all costs. One thing is certain, after half a century of marriage, you seem to have found the secret of marital happiness. And that's the best gift you can give to each other.
