Anyone making 1st Anniversary plans yet?

Before you know it we will have been married for a year! 

As you can see by the ticker, we are going to Mexico mid month (H's schedule didn't work for us to travel over our actual anniversary).

Our actual anniversary over Memorial Day weekend this year, so we're going to see if we are invited to any celebrations before decided what we want to do.

Anyone following the gift rules?  I think the first year is paper.  I guess ours could be the plane tickets!

Re: Anyone making 1st Anniversary plans yet?

  • It's crazy to think that the 1 year mark is quickly approaching.  Right now we have no big plans for our anniversary.  I know we'll be taking a few trips in May and June back home and we'll have a 2 month old in May - so maybe next year we'll do something bigger for our anniversary.

  • I can't believe it's almost been a year!

    My brother-in-law is graduating from grad school that weekend so we will be in DC.  We are coming home on the actual day of our anniversary.  We usually aren't gifty people so we won't be exchanging gifts probably.  Whoever did the sound for our wedding gave us a cd of the audio so maybe we will try to listen to it at some point.  The place we got our cake for the wedding also will make us a small replica of the top tier of our cake so I want to do that as well.  We do have a cruise planned for July which is what we did for our honeymoon so we will do some things on the cruise that we did on the honeymoon too (like couples massages.....cannot wait!)

    Since we are returning to the same resort and we referred our agent to some people he gifted us couples massage!  We are going to do them on the beach like last year - heavenly!

  • We are planning a short vacay for May, though it won't fall on our actual anniversary. I doubt we'll ever really try to follow the anniversary gift rules, though I did hint to H that some show tickets would be a nice anniversary gift, and those would be paper! But honestly, the vacation would definitely be enough. It's so cold now that I can hardly stand to wait for some beach and sun!
  • I am going to be about 8 mos preganant at that point - so no traveling for us! Lol! We have a wedding to go to 5/29, so I'll enjoy some cake there. :) And we have our last childbirth class on our actual anniversary 5/30. I think we may go out to dinner that night, even though it is a Sunday. For Christmas, my boss gave us a gift card to the restaurant that we met at (my boss had no idea!). So I think we'll use it for our anniversary.
  • We had really wanted to go to the beach on our anniversary, but seeing as it falls right after Maddie comes I don't think that's going to happen!  I already told DH his first anniversary paper gift was his daughter's birth certificate and that's all he's getting this year! 

    We are going to the beach first week in June, but we're going to my parent's place and staying with them, so it's not exactly like an anniversary trip.  Although, I'm sure we'll leave baby girl with Grandma and Grandpa one night to have a romantic dinner.

  • Our anniversary falls on Memorial Day weekend and we are going to spend 3 nights at the same place in Vermont where we got engaged.  I had planned it before knowing I was pregnant.... so I will be 7 months along by then.  It will be an anniversary and babymoon in one.  I am soooooo looking forward to some time away!

  • We are going to Mexico, too!  The Riveria Maya in early May.  I think we are also counting the plane tickets as the paper gift.

    We don't have any plans yet. We're going to Florida in June, so maybe we'll count that. :)

  • DH has something up his sleeve but I have no idea what to do! We are trying to save money so I don't think we'll be traveling anywhere. We'll just have to see what DH comes up with. :)
  • My in laws are sending us to st. Marteen! I am so excited! we are going a few weeks after your anniversery. we will be there for 4 days!
  • I'm not sure what we'll do for our anniversary weekend. We booked a cruise to Progresso and Cozumel for mid-July as our (late) anniversary trip.

  • I'm late on this but I'll answer anyways!

    We haven't officially planned anything yet.  There has been a lot of talk and little action so we will see what  happens!  My vote is a trip to the Bahamas since it is a direct flight for us. 

  • DH and I are going to Saint Augustine for a long weekend :) We loved it when we went last August so we're really excited to go back.

     If we do gifts I'm sure we'll stay traditional; we haven't really talked about that aspect of it yet :) 

    That's Mrs.skWhitneyAmanda to you!

    You're my true love, my whole heart ♥ ♥ ♥ <-- Married Bio <br>
