Awesome Ways to Celebrate Your Anniversary
Finding someone who accepts and cares for you, even when you can't do the same for yourself is fantastic. And now that 365(6) days have flown just like that, it is the time to show them that you also care about them. Often, you will find that people will not pay much mind to these occasions. And they will end up having dinner at a restaurant or staying in and watching a movie. Finding things to do on your anniversary can seem hard, especially when you are not financially apt to take a month-long vacation. Here are some ideas to help you with this decision:
Be Together
Life is fast-paced, so much so that you may see very little of each other over the week. You could be married, living together, or dating with the intent of committing. But even with this commitment, you may find that you often neglect your love life. Maybe you are starting a business and cannot make it for date nights as much as you want. Or your kids take up most of your time. You could have a list of reasons to back up your absence, but your anniversary is the time to make up for it.
Ditch your phones, send your kids to the countryside, take a day off work, do whatever it takes to create time. Being together is a sure way to rekindle that romance and to fall in love with each other all over again. You can look back on your memories as this is what this occasion is all about. The rest can wait.
Give Gifts
If you are married, you are familiar with traditional gifts that go with each anniversary. A good example would be the paper gifts that are characteristic of the fragility of the first year of marriage. Now use these traditions to choose something customized for your loved one. While doing this, you can veer off tradition and find something that would speak to their interests.
If you are yet to get married, you know what your partner wants most. Maybe they have been raving about this new game, and the price falls within your budget. Get it and surprise them with it on your anniversary. Remember, the nature and the price tag of the gift will not matter much when it comes to celebrating a loved one. It all comes down to the thought behind the gift.
Recreate Your Wedding/ First Date Menu
Did you enjoy the meals served on your wedding day? The chances are that you did, and even if you did not, you have an idea what the chef wanted to achieve. With this in mind, head to the market with your spouse and seek the ingredients used in the meal. It would be an excellent time to bond and have fun while recreating the wedding menu. You can make everything from the starter to the dessert. It should make for a fun evening.
If you are yet to tie the knot, you can add a twist to this by recreating what you ate on your first date. You will not spend much money, and you will end up having a lot of fun. It also gives you some alone time as a couple, which strengthens your bond.
You can also opt to go to the place where you had your first date and order the same things you did back then. How interesting would that be! You can have fun reliving the awkward moments that led to your union.
Get Away
Sometimes, all that a couple needs is some time away from everything. No more work, no more homework, and no more lawns to water, the list goes on. Breakaway from routine and head to a spot you can both enjoy. Whether it is for a day or a week, it will make a difference.
Remember, this day is about the two of you. Let nothing get in the way of that, and the day shall be memorable.
