Japan, Honoring Our Elders and 50th Anniversaries

Sorry for the delay and we meant no disrespect, but September 21st was Respect for the Aged Day in Japan. It’s a day when the Japanese honor their elders. According to PlanetTokyo.com, ‘Neighborhoods will have volunteers distribute free “obento” boxed lunches to elderly people in the neighborhood and smaller villages will hold keirokai shows where the younger people and school children prepare dances and songs for a special keirokai ceremony. The elderly attendees are also treated to lunch, tea, and sweets after the performance1.’ Oh, if we only went to this extent in America!  In belated honor of Respect for the Aged Day, we’d like to honor our elders with a few of these 50th Anniversary Invitations! For any couple that makes it past the first seven years, yay!  That’s no small feat.  But to stick it out with the same person for 50 years seems almost impossible.  In fact, I’m shaking my single head.  So why don’t we show some respect for our parents or grands; who made it past that milestone by hosting a 50th shindig?  Well, here’s a few high-quality 50th Anniversary invites to help you get started. This 50th Anniversary Storyline Anniversary tells the story of how they first met, their wedding or can even include pictures of the family. 

A small party of 25 will only cost $116 for the invites
And these jeweled 50th Anniversary Flutes come with ‘brass plated stems with rhinestone studded heart accents’ and can even be engraved!  A set is less than $55! 

Did we mention the set is less than $55?  Order yours now!
Or these gorgeous 50th Anniversary Wine Glasses have a splash of old and new school! Not quite stemware but definitely a nice substitute.



Now for those of you whose parents are tech savvy and can keep up with the best of them, here’s a few modern ideas.  Take a look at this Modern Photo Invitation.  Wouldn’t it just tickle your mother to see her and your father on this stylish invite?

And in case you’re going all out this year and springing for a trip, the happy pair can ‘celebrate their special anniversary with this roomy, black tote bag featuring black handles and an art deco, 50th Anniversary design embroidered in gold2.’ Wouldn't this be perfect for a 50th Royal Cruise? 

Order 2 for lest than $45 bucks! 
But before we let you go, doesn’t this 50th Anniversary Glitter Advice Coaster say it all?  It’s a great way for guests to chime in on what they think it’ll take to make it through the next 50 years.  As if they’ll need it.
