Answer:
If you have any friends who hold access to some motorized scooters, walkers, cane and the like I would hold them there. Maybe enjoy a good hobby of decreped bingo with blue M&Ms or other small blue pill looking item as the marker. Have people come surrounded by bathrobes, pajamas and slippers or hospital gowns.
OR decorate the entire place approaching it is for a funeral and have everyone wear appropriate funeral see. Then you can get some great lie vultures nor and mock up a coffin to hold the gifts or to use to serve the food or store drinks.
Pretty much anything that says you are presently officially prehistoric and frail or very close to disappearance.
my dad turned 50 a few days ago. go and get a cake that has a grave on it and say R.I.P and lol and invite his/her buddies over and make a nice suppertime
don't be too loud heart attacks
I'm sorry but I don't think too several people that are turning 50 would find any humour surrounded by a gravestone over the hill cake. Find out what they close to if it's golf or pool I don't know and find a cake designer who can replicate something of their interests. Get everyone they know to attend their party possibly at a banquet passage. All in adjectives just hold fun and enjoy yourselves.
I would go classy & lovely. Just decorate within Gold and White. (gold represents 50)
Have every guest bring a dish as their gift for the b'day creature. Have them include a card to be placed by the dish with their personal greeting on it. (b'day entity gets to maintain all the cards) Serve buffet style, so adjectives can just mingle.
Current photo of the b'day soul -- make sure it is at most minuscule an 8x10 and place a nice large mat around it -- respectively guest 'signs in' on the mat. Towards the end of the darkness, sneek the photo/mat into the other room where you own hidden the frame/glass. Put it together and present it to him/her.
Above adjectives, just hold fun and let them know how much they are loved/appreciated.
I don't think you should be surprising mature people, but anything. Have a nice party near some good food and a gorgeous cake! Don't put 50 candles on it though.

You know, have been in attendance, 50 is one of those 'rite of passage' birthdays and deserves the treatment. Save elegant for any other birthday.
Every individual I know, including myself, has have the funeral type party next to all black clothed guests, a tombstone cake, my girlfriend be given a (rented) wheelchair for her party and it be hilarious.
This rite of passageway party is supposed to be a total mockery of one's age, a total chaff and, purely good fun. There is nil insulting about it and I would suspect that one and only those who consider 50 to be (seriously) old would consider otherwise.
All gifts should be demise related, black, even the family pet should be wearing a black arm leash. Invitations with an obit on the front would be great.
At mine, my friends and fam, one at a time, stood up and toasted me near a glass of champagne contained by one hand and their eulogy to me within the other. Hearing your friends recite your eulogy is a hoot!
By the way, by the time you achieve 50, nothing surprises you anymore so don't try.
BTW, those of you who give Chrisopher a thumbs down, I would venture to utter that you may feel sympathetic of sheepish about it when it's your turn to enjoy a 50th party and associates show up at your party adjectives hush hush about your age.
Remember, we hold been where on earth you are, we did everything you have done, first and, probably past you were born.
something totally baccanilian (ok so i don't know how to spell that word) but lots of wine, everyone in sexy greek costumes, oysters, cheeses, champagne. and a bonfire!!
Have a wake.
Invite your entire family, brand name it a nice surpise party and enjoy everyone for dinner. Most times people within their 50's just love spending time next to their family.
