Host A Fairy Tale 50th Wedding Anniversary Party

If there's anything worth celebrating, it's fifty years of marriage. The couple who's been together fifty years has come a long road together. Their lives are full of memories, joy and relationships, and your 50th wedding anniversary decoration scheme should reflect all those things.

The traditional color for 50th wedding anniversary decorations is gold - it is the Golden Anniversary, after all. Beyond that, though, the sky is the limit on what you can do with decorations for a 50th wedding anniversary party. Here's a unique theme to add the glitz of gold to the special party that you planned for the couple.

A Fairy Tale 50th Wedding Anniversary

"...and they lived happily ever after." Isn't that how every fairy tale ends? Bring a fairy tale 50th wedding anniversary to life with gold and white decorations. Theme the party 'Our life has been a fairy tale...', and challenge guests to come up with fairy tale themed gifts. Float gold and white balloons in the hall, attach them to the backs of chairs, or use them to create a ceremonial arch for the happy couple to pass through as they enter the hall.

Decorate the tables for a fairy tale 50th wedding anniversary party with white and glitzy gold tablecloths - just use white tablecloths and sprinkle with sparkly gold confetti. Here are some ideas for special centerpieces:

Fill the back of Cinderella white and gold coaches with creamy roses; create castles of sparkly white Styrofoam, trim with glitter and fill with a potted plant; place a white wicker basket in the middle of the table to hold the party favors, and tie a bunch of white and gold balloons to the handle.


For a very special memory, ask each guest to hand-write a message to the happy couple about how their lives have been enriched through the years. At the party, take a photo of each person with an instant camera, and paste the photo and message into a white leather photo album engraved with their names and wedding date.

You can even carry the theme on with the cake. Decorate a sheet cake with a purchased Cinderella coach and horses and a happy anniversary wish for the 50th anniversary celebrants. Party favors? Go with gold. Gold picture frames, a gold money clip or a gold keychain in a white box tied with cascades of gold curling ribbon will be pretty as a picture in the centerpiece baskets or on their own table.

Twine white Christmas lights through gold garland and then hang it along the edges of the ceiling. How about making the couple the king and queen of the party! Decorate chairs with gold garland and red velvet and let them preside over the feast. You can also decorate the gifts table with a glass bowl full of gold Christmas balls. And for an unusual touch, fill the bowl to within an inch of the brim with the balls, then pour water over them. Float lotus candles on top.
