When Should We Have Our Parent's Anniversary Party?

We are planning a 50th wedding anniversary celebration for our parents and I would like someone's opinion on when to have it. Their anniversary is December 8 and I thought it would be nice to have an open house in early December. Although it may be a problem for my children to get there since they will be away at college and who knows what the weather will be like that time of year. We live 250 miles away from my family. Or maybe we could do it the weekend after Thanksgiving when everyone is home. My brother prefers something more informal. He would like to just do a family dinner in December and then next summer have a big picnic for them and invite all their friends and relatives. I like that idea, but I hate to wait that long. They're getting up there in age and even though they are in good health you never know what may happen. Plus would it look bad to wait so long? I'd appreciate anyone's opinion on this.
