A gold­en dding is a sig­nif­i­cant event not only for a mar­ried cou­ple who have lived togeth­er for half a cen­tu­ry, but also for their loved ones. You need to pre­pare for this date in advance, includ­ing buy­ing a gift. A ran­dom gift bought in haste on the way to a hol­i­day is not the best option for such a grand event.

So that the task does not cause you any dif­fi­cul­ties, we has pre­pared a selec­tion of ideas that you can give for a gold­en dding.

Top 25 best options for original gifts for a golden dding

By the 50th anniver­sary of their life togeth­er, the spous­es may have every­thing they need for a com­fort­able life. But even in this case, you can present a present that will please them and will not lie idle at home. Think about what you can update in the apart­ment of the heroes of the day, what new house­hold appli­ances they don’t have, which can make life eas­i­er for the spous­es, add com­fort and new expe­ri­ences.

You can choose a gift for two, or indi­vid­ual sur­pris­es for hus­band and wife. Do not for­get that the present should be use­ful for both spous­es, so you need to take into account the inter­ests of each.

1. Family photo shoot

Pho­tographs are one of the best ways to pre­serve mem­o­ries and emo­tions from impor­tant and excit­ing events. Give the anniver­saries a pho­to ses­sion with the fam­i­ly. Such a gift will be a good occa­sion to gath­er loved ones togeth­er, have a good time and cap­ture emo­tions.

And in mem­o­ry of a sig­nif­i­cant date, there will be pho­tographs filled with warmth and love.

2. Robot vacuum cleaner

A con­ve­nient and com­pact assis­tant will keep the house clean with­out the active par­tic­i­pa­tion of the res­i­dents. When choos­ing a vac­u­um clean­er, pay atten­tion to the type of clean­ing per­formed: dry, t or com­bined, the por and ease of use of the equip­ment.

3. Massage chair

Mas­sage will help reduce ner­vous ten­sion, relax and take a break from every­day wor­ries, and a mas­sage chair will allow you to do this with­out leav­ing your home. Give your spous­es a mas­sage chair — such a gift will def­i­nite­ly cause pos­i­tive emo­tions.

Hov­er, it is impor­tant to con­sid­er the size of the equip­ment and ease of use. Check with the sell­er what options are avail­able and if there are any con­traindi­ca­tions.

4. Smart speaker

A smart speak­er is a great gift for those who don’t like typ­ing on their phone or com­put­er. This gad­get can be con­trolled by voice.

The col­umn will wake you up at any time, remind you of the amount of sug­ar for jam, tell you how the foot­ball match end­ed, find your favorite song, tell you the tem­per­a­ture out­side and ansr any ques­tion.

5. Master class in pottery

If the anniver­saries are cre­ative peo­ple, then a clay mod­el­ing mas­ter class will be a won­der­ful pas­time. You can give a mar­ried cou­ple a date togeth­er or invite chil­dren and grand­chil­dren for a fam­i­ly hol­i­day. Joint work will bring togeth­er dif­fer­ent gen­er­a­tions of the fam­i­ly even more, and mem­o­rable sou­venirs in the form of self-made prod­ucts will be added to pleas­ant mem­o­ries. In the work­shop, you can do any­thing — from dish­es to inte­ri­or items that can be safe­ly used for their intend­ed pur­pose.

Many work­shops pro­vide pho­tog­ra­phy ser­vices, and the emo­tions from the process can be cap­tured for the fam­i­ly archive.

6. Clothes dryer

This device will allow you to free up space from bulky dry­ers, organ­i­cal­ly fit into the inte­ri­or, improve the qual­i­ty of dry­ing and elim­i­nate the need to hang up and remove clothes. With the help of a dry­er, anniver­saries will be able to save time and effort for more impor­tant things.

7. Electric blanket

A great gift for the cold sea­son would be an elec­tric blan­ket. You no longer need to wrap your­self in blan­kets and turn on the heater to warm up before going to bed or after a long walk. Elec­tric blan­kets do not dif­fer from tra­di­tion­al ones in appear­ance, are made of soft mate­ri­als and have spe­cial elec­tri­cal wires that gen­er­ate heat and quick­ly warm the fab­ric.

Impor­tant

Sleep­ing with a blan­ket con­nect­ed to elec­tric­i­ty is not allod. Warn about this the peo­ple to whom you give this thing.

8. Dishwasher

A dish­wash­er will help make life eas­i­er for spous­es. When choos­ing, be guid­ed by the para­me­ters of the kitchen. There are desk­top, built-in and sta­tion­ary dish­wash­ers. Impor­tant char­ac­ter­is­tics: dimen­sions of the dish­wash­er, noise lev­el, oper­at­ing modes, ener­gy con­sump­tion and water con­sump­tion.

Do not for­get that for the dish­wash­er to work you need to buy spe­cial tablets — and these are addi­tion­al reg­u­lar expens­es. Make sure the jubilees can afford such expens­es in the future.

9. Breadmaker

The smell of fresh bak­ing in the house cre­ates a feel­ing of warmth and com­fort. Give a cou­ple a bread mak­er and the process of mak­ing fresh bread for break­fast will become eas­i­er: you only need to pre­pare the ingre­di­ents, and the bread mak­er itself will knead the dough and bake the bread at the right time.

10. Electric meat grinder

An elec­tric meat grinder is able to grind 1.5–2 kg of meat in 1 minute, which great­ly speeds up the process of prepar­ing your favorite dish­es. Mod­ern meat grinders can per­form tasks not only for pro­cess­ing meat, but also for cut­ting, squeez­ing juice, cook­ing noo­dles, and form­ing sausages. It all depends on the cost of equip­ment and the needs of the heroes of the day.

11. Rocking chair

An excel­lent gift for relax­ation, in addi­tion, the use of such a device has a ben­e­fi­cial effect on the vestibu­lar appa­ra­tus. A rock­ing chair should be select­ed for the inte­ri­or and size of the spous­es’ apart­ment.

By the way, you can also find mas­sage rock­ing chairs on the mar­ket — take a clos­er look at this option.

12. Certificate in spa

An invig­o­rat­ing bath, steam­ing rit­u­als, scrub­bing, wrap­ping, mas­sage… The list of spa treat­ments is end­less. What­ev­er the anniver­saries choose, a day spent at a leisure­ly pace, full of use­ful and pleas­ant pro­ce­dures, will fill them with pos­i­tive emo­tions, give a charge of vivac­i­ty and ener­gy.

13. Dryer for vegetables and fruits

Veg­eta­bles and fruits are a nat­ur­al store­house of nutri­ents. Hov­er, the shelf life of such prod­ucts is short. The dry­er for veg­eta­bles and fruits will pro­vide anniver­saries with a sup­ply of tasty and healthy dried fruits, dried veg­eta­bles and prepa­ra­tions for the first and sec­ond cours­es for the whole year.

14. Wine cabinet

If a mar­ried cou­ple is fond of col­lect­ing or mak­ing home­made wine, a wine cab­i­net will be a great gift. A sta­ble tem­per­a­ture and dark­ness are impor­tant for stor­ing a nat­ur­al drink, which can­not be pro­vid­ed in a con­ven­tion­al refrig­er­a­tor.

There are both small wine cab­i­nets that can be placed on the coun­ter­top, and larg­er ones that are built into the kitchen set.

15. Vinyl player

Lis­ten­ing to music on vinyl records is becom­ing pop­u­lar again. Why not give the anniver­saries a time machine that will take them to warm mem­o­ries of their youth? Per­haps the spous­es even pre­served vinyl records with songs from their youth. On a high-qual­i­ty mod­ern play­er, even an old record will sound good.

16. Electric grill

Grilled dish­es are a good alter­na­tive to char­coal grilled dish­es. Dish­es are pre­pared quick­ly, they are tasty, and most impor­tant­ly, not so greasy, since oil is not used in cook­ing.

When choos­ing, pay atten­tion to the size, por, type of pan­els, ease of oper­a­tion and clean­ing of the device.

17. Digital photo frame

The dig­i­tal frame allows you to save space in your home by col­lect­ing all your favorite pho­tos in one place. Most mod­els can be placed on a hor­i­zon­tal sur­face or hung on a wall.

The main cri­te­ri­on for choos­ing a device is the dis­play. We rec­om­mend choos­ing a pho­to frame with an anti-reflec­tive coat­ing so that you can view pho­tos from dif­fer­ent angles. Mod­ern frames range in size from 7 to 21 inch­es, mak­ing the gift an impor­tant dec­o­ra­tive aspect in the liv­ing room of anniver­saries.

18. Nordic walking poles

Nordic walk­ing is suit­able for the old­er gen­er­a­tion, all move­ments are as nat­ur­al as pos­si­ble, loads can be low, spe­cial phys­i­cal train­ing is not required. Since class­es are held on the street, this will allow spous­es to be out­doors more often, spend more time active­ly, which will have a ben­e­fi­cial effect on mood and ll-being.

Nordic walk­ing sticks will be a good gift for improv­ing health and spend­ing time togeth­er.

19. E‑book

E‑books have become a wor­thy alter­na­tive to paper books. They are light, com­pact, and allow you to change the font size so that the strain on your eye­sight is min­i­mal, and read­ing is even more enjoy­able. Such a device can accom­mo­date an entire library of hus­band and wife, which will sig­nif­i­cant­ly save the fam­i­ly bud­get.

20. Orthopedic pillows

Sound sleep is impor­tant for human health. And ortho­pe­dic pil­lows will be a use­ful gift for a mar­ried cou­ple. The cor­rect posi­tion of the body dur­ing sleep will improve blood cir­cu­la­tion, reduce pain and clamps in the body and improve the qual­i­ty of sleep.

21. Waffle iron

Give the anniver­saries a waf­fle iron so that they always have a deli­cious dessert on their table — fresh waf­fles. Mod­ern tech­nol­o­gy is equipped with many func­tions, so cook­ing treats will be quick and easy.

But do not for­get about the habits and tastes of the spous­es. If both are on a diet or don’t like to cook at all, the gift may turn out to be a waste of mon­ey.

22. Air purifier

An air puri­fi­er is a use­ful gift for the home. This device cleans the air in the room from dust, harm­ful sub­stances from the street and emit­ted by fur­ni­ture, and unpleas­ant odors.

When choos­ing a present, make sure that it can be used in every­day life and is easy to use. Get ready for the fact that you may need to help the anniver­saries with the set­tings.

23. Bath set

Sauna or Russ­ian bath lovers will be delight­ed with a gift in the form of a bath set. There are many sets of dif­fer­ent con­fig­u­ra­tions on the mar­ket, which include hats, sheets, essen­tial oils, brush­es, brooms, scrubs, wash­cloths, soaps, herbal teas and much more.

You can pur­chase a ready-made set, or you can assem­ble it your­self, focus­ing on the pref­er­ences of a mar­ried cou­ple.

24. Salt lamp

A salt lamp will help reduce the neg­a­tive impact of elec­tri­cal appli­ances, has a pos­i­tive effect on the body, and the emit­ted light has a ben­e­fi­cial effect on the ner­vous sys­tem. The strength of the stand and the ori­gin of the mate­r­i­al are the main qual­i­ty para­me­ters of the device. Depend­ing on the col­or, the lamp has a dif­fer­ent effect on the human body — this should also be tak­en into account when buy­ing.

25. Robes with embroidery

A warm bathrobe will be an excel­lent home ar in the cold sea­son, while a light cot­ton or silk one can be worn all year round. Mod­ern equip­ment allows you to cre­ate almost any pat­tern, which will give indi­vid­u­al­i­ty and orig­i­nal­i­ty to the gift.

How to con­grat­u­late spous­es on a gold­en dding: sin­cere words in poet­ry and prose

Remem­ber that at such a respectable age, some­times it is enough to give the emo­tions of a close-knit fam­i­ly. Gath­er at one table or orga­nize an out­door pic­nic, make a video clip about all the rel­a­tives about their suc­cess­es and achieve­ments, and pay atten­tion to the fact that behind all this is the love of two peo­ple, the foun­da­tion and foun­da­tion of the clan.

Also give some­thing that will help you cope with every­day duties: a cof­fee mak­er, a dish­wash­er, a robot vac­u­um clean­er. Sur­round with the care of those who have tak­en care of the whole fam­i­ly for many years.

Popular questions and ansrs

Our expert Natalya Nuriye­va ansrs fre­quent­ly asked ques­tions from read­ers.

What is traditionally accepted to give for a golden dding?

As a rule, for a gold­en dding they give prod­ucts from the pre­cious met­al of the same name. It can be both small jel­ry and sol­id, dimen­sion­al inte­ri­or items — depend­ing on the sta­tus of the cou­ple, their pref­er­ences and your bud­get.

New dding rings are con­sid­ered a tra­di­tion­al gift from chil­dren. Dur­ing the exchange of rings, spous­es can utter new oaths, com­pli­ments, assur­ances of love for the next half cen­tu­ry of liv­ing togeth­er.

It is cus­tom­ary to pass on old rings to the fam­i­ly for future gen­er­a­tions. This is a sym­bol of long-last­ing love, it is believed that they have por­ful pos­i­tive ener­gy and will bring pros­per­i­ty and hap­pi­ness to their new own­ers in fam­i­ly life.

What can not be given for a golden dding?

Do not give ordi­nary stamped gifts: mugs with con­grat­u­la­tions, cheap glass­es with gild­ing and swans, T‑shirts with obvi­ous inscrip­tions. Such sou­venirs, no mat­ter how tact­ful­ly received, will cre­ate the feel­ing of a gift pur­chased at the last minute, with no respect for such a seri­ous hol­i­day.

Some cou­ples, due to their age, may be uncom­fort­able when trav­el­ing, active recre­ation or noisy long feasts. Be sure to take into account the lifestyle of the spous­es, pos­si­ble health prob­lems, dai­ly rou­tine and con­traindi­ca­tions so that the gift does not become a bur­den or a prob­lem.

Why is the golden dding called so?

One of the most sig­nif­i­cant dates in the life of a fam­i­ly is a gold­en dding. To spend half a cen­tu­ry in union with one per­son is a beau­ti­ful state­ment about the gift of mar­ried life, as valu­able and rare as gold. Even in ancient times, gold was val­ued by peo­ple above all else, and many stones re not yet known. That is why this pre­cious met­al is cho­sen as a sym­bol of the anniver­sary of love.
