50th Birthday Ideas For Women

50th birthday ideas for women should be as personal as the people they represent.  Because this occasion is such a big deal, the party planning should be completely centered around the Honoree.     

What would make her happy?  Whether she prefers a low-key gathering with close friends and family or a big blowout with all her loved ones, there are endless possibilities to make her 50th birthday one to remember.

With that in mind, make an effort to celebrate the Honoree's life in a distinctive way that makes her feel special and the guests feel lucky to have been a part of it.

Kiss Your 40's Goodbye.
Lucky for you, some 50th birthday ideas for women set the mood for fun.  And any time a party element can be used in more than one way, that's good for the pocketbook.  A 50th birthday party backdrop can be multi-purposed in noticeable ways.  Consider hanging the backdrop behind the food table to anchor the theme.  When guests seem to have had enough food, simply slide the table away.  Just like that, the same backdrop became a photo prop. 

Tip

When using a backdrop behind a buffet table or as a photo prop, keep pertinent information towards the top and choose the size that best fits your space.

To give the 50 and Fabulous theme the creativity it deserves, you'll need lots of glitz and glam.  This would be the time to not hold back and layer on detail after detail.  First determine the formality of your party and the color scheme.  For example, if you are planning a sit-down dinner and the colors are pink and rose gold, let that be the inspiration behind the decorations, tablecloths, candles, glassware, etc.  You'll be glad you did.
