What are you doing/did you do for your first anniversary?

Hello all!  I read through the July 10th post but my anniversary is the 17th and I was wondering what the rest of us are doing/did for their anniversaries.

We went to Mexico last week for seven days to celebrate my cousin's wedding and our anniversary but since the actual day is this Sunday I just came up with a plan.  We're going to the restaurant where we had our wedding reception for dinner and then I booked us a hotel for the night in the town we got married in on the lake (I think I found the last hotel in town!).  Since the traditional gift is paper I'm going to print out the reservation and give it to him on Saturday as his presents since he doesn't know we're staying overnight (it's about an hour away).

I hope everyone has wonderful anniversaries!  I can't believe how fast this year has gone by!

Re: What are you doing/did you do for your first anniversary?

  • i think we may just do dinner...i dont think i could spend the night away from the baby just yet!

    I cant believe its already a year :)

  • spending the actual night in a hotel room (suite with our own room) with my FIL, MIL & BIL!

    We are going to a super fancy fondue restaurant either the week before or the week after.  I have a totally practical gift, but still need something else.

     

  • I have no idea... and 2 weeks to figure it out!
  • Ours was this past Saturday.  Since we spent a week over the fourth on vacation with H's family, he didn't have any extra vacation days to use this soon.  We went out to a fondue restaurant for a nice dinner.  We don't typically exchange traditional presents, and we plan on trying to get away on a weeklong vacation for our 5th and 10th anniversary.

  • No set plans.  I think we may just do a nice dinner at home, watch our wedding video that we have NEVER watched, keep it simple and quiet.  Just us.

  • we are going on vacation but get back the day before our actual anniversary so I'm not sure what we'll do the actual day, but we'll celebrate on vacation
  • We will be in Grand Cayman.  We will hit the beach and do a nice dinner out!
  • Josh and Cass will be at their dads.

    Jai is going to DH's parents from Friday morning till Sunday morning.

    We are spending a whole 2 days and nights at home, not answering the phone, doing whatever strikes us in the moment. 

    Since we live in the country, on the lake, on 46 acres.  We may swim, fish, laze around.  It will be nice to be care free for 2 whole days!

     

    Happy Anniversary everyone!

  • My parents are taking the kids overnight for us so we're going to a fancy hotel & having a fancy dinner. I planned on that being our gift to each other but apparently DH has other ideas from the comments he has made, so I best start thinking of another gift for him...

  • Our anniversary is the 24th.  My gift was tickets to the Blues Brothers tribute show at the beginning of the month- its my favorite movie and I loved the show.  DH's gift is tickets to a Cubs game on the 24th- the first date I took him on was to a Cubs game.  Otherwise probably just dinner.  We recently purchased a condo and so probably no hotel for us.  We have a pseudo second honeymoon planned for December though because we decided we'd rather run off to the tropics when it was cold and miserable here.
