Common Questions about 60th Birthday Gift Ideas for Men
What is the traditional gift for a 60th birthday?
Diamonds are the traditional gift for a 60th birthday (just as they are for a 60th anniversary), and roses are also a traditional 60th birthday gift option. While diamonds are expensive, you can also opt for a gift inspired by diamonds, such as Versace Yellow Diamond or White Diamonds by Elizabeth Taylor perfume, or diamond-infused beauty products, such as illuminating powder infused with diamond powder and powder from other precious stones or a diamond-infused nail lacquer.
What is a good theme for a 60th birthday party?
With diamonds being the traditional 60th birthday gift, a birthday party featuring tons of sparkle and shine makes an excellent 60th birthday party theme. For example, a “Diamond Jubilee” themed party, a masquerade ball theme, or a disco-themed party are fun and fabulous options. A diamonds-and-denim themed party, where guests have to dress up in their finest, fanciest outfit or a casual denim outfit, is also a great 60th birthday party theme.
How do I celebrate my husband’s 60th birthday?
There are many ways to celebrate your husband’s 60th birthday. For instance, you could get him 60 smaller gifts, one for each year of his life, or 60 of one type of item, like 60 lottery tickets. Another idea is to celebrate with an activity such as getting matching tattoos (if you’re both adventurous enough to do so). Another great way to celebrate your husband’s 60th birthday is by getting him an experience that crosses an item off his bucket list, such as a helicopter ride, skydiving, or a trip to a place he’s always wanted to visit.
What should I gift my dad on his 60th birthday?
Your dad will appreciate anything you gift him on his 60th birthday. An arrangement of fresh fruit and chocolate dipped fruits along with a few Happy Birthday balloons makes a great surprise gift you can have delivered straight to his doorstep. Or, if your dad has a sense of humor, a hat, t-shirt, or sweatshirt featuring the year of his birth and a catchy phrase about how 60 is the new 20 or some other humorous quip about being fabulous at 60. Throw him a party with a fun theme, or have custom artwork created for him featuring something meaningful to him, like his family, favorite pet, or a map to showcase all the places he’s traveled to.
What do you say for a 60th birthday?
You can say just about anything to wish someone a happy 60th birthday, such as “Congrats on reaching the big 6-0,” or “Happy Birthday! 60 and still sassy.” Or, share a more personal and sentimental message, such as a note about how much you appreciate them or the role they’ve played in your life. You can also make note of their contributions to the world, such as “60 years on earth – countless contributions to the world.” There are endless possibilities, so you can tailor your message to their unique personality.
Whether the 60 year old guy in your life is retired or still hitting the old grindstone, is welcoming new grandkids or even children of his own, you’re sure to find the perfect gift for him on this list. From tasty food gifts to personalized gear, this list really has something for everyone.
