According to current statistics, the average age of women on the day of marriage in 2021 was almost 32 years old – men, on the other hand, were already around 35 years old. For comparison: In 1991, most women were still 26 years old on their wedding day and men were 28 years old. This makes it clear that more and more couples in Germany are getting married later. Which isn’t a bad thing in itself, it just reduces your chances of reaching your 50th marriage anniversary. Nowadays you should appreciate it all the more when a golden wedding anniversary is celebrated. Below we present ten suitable gift ideas to you.
What do you give a couple who have been married for 50 years? Assuming that the household is complete after such a long time, there is often a lack of suitable ideas. So why shouldn’t the couple decide for themselves what they need – by giving them a small (or with friends and family) large monetary gift. Nicely packaged in a small money box.
A particularly beautiful gift idea for couples who have a garden is this romantic rose arch made of weather-resistant metal. It is particularly suitable as a trellis and climbing support for roses, clematis, passion flowers and many other plants. Properly staged, the arch transforms into a colorful sea of flowers over time.
This champagne bottle should be a small but nice gift for the 50th marriage anniversary. What’s special about it is that the wine-based drink (750 ml) contains 23 carat gold leaf – which can of course be drunk with you. The award-winning sparkling wine cellar in Austria sends the bottle in stylish gift packaging.
Anyone who is allowed to celebrate their golden wedding anniversary has already seen a lot in their life. Remembering everything that has happened in the last 50 years is not easy for everyone. This book takes married couples on a journey through time and shows (including beautiful photos, exciting facts and figures) what happened in world history between 1973 and 2023.
Who doesn’t know the typical scenes of a marriage? And who better to satirize these situations than Loriot. This hardcover edition of the comedian tells eleven short stories that deal with married life – from arguments about what the perfect breakfast egg should be, to broken televisions, to political discussions.

There and back transfer is possible by bus (from Simeonstiftplatz).
Whether for the balcony, the terrace or the garden: This lantern made of gold-colored stainless steel is a nice gift idea for outside. On the one hand it provides light, on the other side it forever reminds you of the golden wedding anniversary with a personal engraving (including the names of the couple and the date of the 50th wedding anniversary).
What do you need to toast your 50th wedding anniversary? That’s right: matching wine glasses. These become a special golden wedding anniversary with an engraving. If you prefer to toast with a sparkling drink, you can of course also give away matching champagne glasses (including date and engraving).
Do you just want to give the couple a little gift to commemorate their 50th wedding anniversary? How about a handmade candle on which the names of the bride and groom are immortalized – including the date of the marriage. Decorated in golden colors, the gift should reflect the anniversary.
