1st anniversary
ours is coming up soon and i was just wondering if anyone did the traditional paper gift? if so, any ideas you'd like to share? thanks!
and did you take a fabulous vacation? i'll be jealous, lol! but we are going to a B&B so i'm excited about that 
lastly, did you eat wedding cake from your freezer? if so, did it taste good?
Re: 1st anniversary
For our first anniversary DH got me a gift certificate to the Hershey Spa (my fave!) and I got him a handmade leather-bound sketch book.
Some paper ideas are: tickets to a sporting event or concert, a gift certificate (if you can find some place that gives paper gift certificates), a picture or print that he likes.
My DH's family owns a house in DE so we went down there for a few days for our 1st anny. I think a B&B sounds awesome! I hope you have a good time.
For our 1st anniversary DH and I really didn't do anything becuase we had just closed on our house and were doing a ton of projects before we moved in. The day of we ended up painted all day and ordering takeout for dinner, not a great way to celebrate our 1st anniversary.
DH did get me a micro-hood for our new kitchen (it came with an instruction book so I guess that could count as the paper part), and I was really excited about that.
Our wedding cake was from Heather Luse and her cakes are soooooooooo good, but I think we waited to long to freeze it because it did not taste good when it came out of the freezer. We each took a bite for good luck and ended up throwing it away. I was sad because after a day of painting I was really looking forward to that cake.
We also had a Heather Luse cake and loooovvveed it!!! we were able to eat it for our one year anniversary. I tried to order a small one for our 5th anniversary but she was about to give birth. I have ordered one for my birthday in two months!
We also did a B&B for our 1st anniversary. Just nice to get away. Love the tickets and gift certificates ideas. Just think we did cards.
Enjoy!!!
DH did traditional, and I did modern - he got me an acre of the sea floor - so it was a certificate, thus paper. Naming a star might be along the same lines. I got him a clock for his motorcyle.
We went to AC. It was my idea, but I should have thought of somewhere better.
As for the cake topper - yes we did try some. The icing was still tasty but the cake was nasty. So we threw it out to regain valuable freezer space!
