Type in your email address, and the list is there right away – no waiting for an email. The name “Our golden anniversary wishes” is already filled in, and you can change it anytime.
Collect wishes
Copy the link from the store and paste it. Name, image and price are added on their own. On your phone, you can also do this right from “Share”.
Share the link
Send the link to everyone, by message or as a QR code. Whatever someone reserves is off the list for the others. They don’t see who it was.
What fits on a list like this
Just a few ideas. Add them with a store link or simply as text.
- A day trip with the whole family
- Photo book of five decades
- A weekend in the mountains
- Symphony tickets
- A good armchair
- Contribution to the family dinner
For a golden anniversary, the gift question almost always goes through the kids – and still ends in flowers and chocolates. A wishlist turns it into something that truly makes someone happy: time together, a day trip, a contribution to something bigger. The kids can set it up just as easily as the couple of honor themselves.
Common questions: Golden anniversary
- How much do people give for a 50th anniversary?
- Guests often give $25 to $75. The couple’s children and grandchildren usually pool their money for something larger. After fifty years, the thought counts far more than the amount.
- Who usually hosts a golden anniversary party?
- Traditionally the couple’s children plan and host it, often as a surprise or together with the couple. A relaxed lunch or an afternoon gathering tends to suit the guests of honor better than a late night.
- Does the gift have to be gold?
- No. Gold is the traditional symbol, and a small golden touch is a nice nod to the occasion. Shared time, a family trip or a photo book of fifty years usually means more than another object.
Can the kids create the list?
Yes, and it’s usually the easier way. They add what they know about their parents’ wishes and share the link with the guests.
How do we reach older guests?
With a QR code on the invitation, or the address to type in. Nobody has to sign up to reserve.
Can several people chip in together?
Yes. Add a contribution with “Can be given more than once”, and everyone can give their share.
Can guests see who takes what?
No.
Does the list cost anything?
No.
