50th Wedding Anniversary Help!!

Tia, on September 14, 2019 at 7:12 AM Posted in Parties and Events 0 6
My grandparents will celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary in February. They had a courthouse wedding, and I would love to help them have a wedding wedding for their anniversary. However, it’s looking like I’m the only one taking this seriously, so rather than stress myself out with those details, I’m trying to think of ways to help them celebrate that’s not going to break the bank. Does anyone have any ideas I can consider??

    Do they want a big to do? It may be that they'd be just as happy with a smaller, more intimate affair, maybe at a restaurant. That could help save money and still be wedding-y

    Without breaking the bank you can get a suit, a pretty dress, and a small bouquet. As the previous poster mentioned, a reception at a restaurant can be nice or have a local restaurant cater if you have a house or other venue in mind. You could even do just a wedding photoshoot for them. I saw this online and thought it was the cutest thing.

    We were going to throw a 50th surprise party for my grandparents this year but they're going on a big cruise and their anniversary is on NYE so timing kind of sucked for parties. But I suggested to my mom we get them a photographer to do some fun photoshoots like thos one!

    Hey Tia! It's so sweet that you are organizing this for your parents.

    Do you think they would like a smaller event with just family or do you think you will have a bigger guest list? Planning dinner in a restaurant is a great way to guarantee great food and lively atmosphere.

    If you wanted to something that is more of a gift to them on their anniversary, a photo session sounds so amazing! They would get such beautiful photos! I love the example pictures that IvyAndKris posted!😍

    Yes, the photo shoot idea sounds amazing. I’ve asked, and they like the idea of having a wedding, but everyone is dragging their feet when it comes to beginning to plan.
