Special anniversaries call for special gifts that show your loved one how much they mean to you, and that is certainly true when it comes to 50th wedding anniversary gifts. Yellow gold has long been the popular choice in color; however, white gold has very much made its comeback and is not just a substitute for platinum. Women often feel best in the cool white metal depending on what they are wearing or the time of year. Keep in mind, as well, that pink and green gold are unique options that offer a rainbow of possibilities.

Anniversary gifts for her may include: solid gold watch with or without diamonds, gold necklace with diamond or pearl enhancer, unique gold ring set with a birthstone or anniversary stone, gold bracelet or bangle, and gold cross or religious pendant. For him, appropriate 50th wedding anniversary gifts could be: solid gold cufflinks and matching tie tack, antique gold pocket watch, solid gold wristwatch, money clip, gold necklace or bracelet, signet ring or even a new wedding band. 

If possible, have your gift engraved for a more personalized meaning.
