Create a wish tree. Use branches wired together to make a tree. Spray paint it gold. Tie messages on the branches with gold or white ribbon. Have children and family friends write messages to the couple with a gold paint pen. Hang photos and other reminders from the branches as well.
Frame a special poem or religious verse written with a gold calligraphy pen. Or, write your own poem or use song lyrics that are special to the couple.
Compile a CD of songs from the date of the marriage, or put a special song or two on from all five decades of their marriage.
Put a keepsake photo album together. Enlist the help of friends and family and ask for stories and memories to go along with the photos collected. Leave room in the back for more photos and memories. - Chardonnay makes a nice gold wine choice for a 50th anniversaryglass of white wine image by Timothy Lubcke from Fotolia.com

Hire an artist to paint the couple's portrait. Provide the artist with photographs to keep the portrait a surprise, or invite the couple to sit for a live session with the artist.
Send 50 yellow flowers, or several batches of 50; fifty daffodils, fifty yellow tulips, fifty yellow roses. Or plant a yellow flowering tree or bush in their yard to celebrate the stability of their marriage.
