The happy couple celebrated their fiftieth anniversary.
You don’t need just, and it is not fiftty year anniversary that means an anniversary 50 year long you mean the anniversary that is number 50.

Great example of why you should use numbers – 50th instead of fiftieth. By the way couple is plural in the sense you used the word therefore correct. The way I used the word couple is singular because I’m referring to the word not the actual lovebirds.

I would say – The happy couple just celebrated its fify year anniversary.
Couple is singular, their implies plural.

1. The word “happy” is an oxymoron in this sentence. [Omit it or use a more realistic adjective. “Bedraggled” seems fitting.]
2. fifty-year [Put in a hyphen]
3. couple [singular] their [plural], their probably should be “its”.

It’s a little plainly put, but nothing wrong that I can see.
