    Anybody celebrate or feel differently when the day of the month you married rolls around again?

    We don't celebrate or do anything in particular, but every time it's gotten close to the 24th again, I feel kind of giddy. Three months isn't too long, but it's building up towards, you know - forever.

    We haven't been married for a month yet, but we celebrated our week-versary!

    The first year of our relationship, he sent me flowers on every month-versary. Then we decided to celebrate that anniversary every year and not monthly.

    I wonder if I will get flowers for the month-versary of our wedding?Cool

    We celebrated our first monthaversary, because it was my birthday, and then our second one because it was just a few days away from our engagement anniversary, and then after that it kind of fell off until the 6 month mark. I still would look at the calender, note the date, and say Happy Anniversary to my husband on the 12th, but nothing more than that. And actually, I completely forgot in August and I think probably in July as well! Oops! :)

    We've only been married 1 month, so we had dinner on our 1 month-versary.  We're both so busy with work, I thought it'd be nice to have a standing celebratory occasion to make sure we get some alone time together.  Sometimes my husband isn't too adventurous in his food choices, so I told him I'd pick a different ethnic restaurant for every month-versary for the first year we're married.  Month 1 was Japanese.  He's excited about Italian night, but I'm really looking forward to introducing him to Indian and Greek food!

    We've been trying to celebrate every month for the first year. We did the first month and then 2 and 3 slipped right by without us even knowing! We went out for the four month. I love ticking off the dates, I can't wait until one year!!!!

    We celebrated months 1, 2, and 3.  We'd really like to celebrate every month for the first year, but we don't do anything really big.  Just a date night out like dinner or a movie.

    we do!  we usually do small gifts and on our 6 mo. went out to a fancy dinner instead.

     

    We had hoped to do something on the date-aversary which is also our engage-aversary, but it was just toooo hectic that day.  Hopefully next year!

    We don't always do anything in particular for our month-aversaries, but we always make sure to say happy anniversary to each other. we've been doing that since the day we met, and we've kept all of our special dates on the 19th of a month, so it's pretty easy to keep track...lol. We met on a January 19th, got engaged on an August 19th (one year ago today!), and got married this past December 19th! So the 19th is always some milestone for something! For our 6 month wedding anniversary, I surprised the hubby with a little trip to Vegas. he loved it. Did that since he's going to be on deployment for our one year :( But he still makes sure to email me to say happy anniversary when the 19th rolls around.

    Good ideas. Maybe we'll do something for our upcoming 3 month. The first month we were with his parents and his dad actually gave us a little gift, the second month we were at a funeral, so maybe three months is time, even for a special date night if nothing more.

    We went out for a nice dinner on our 1 month anniversary.  We used a gift certificate that our best friends gave us as a wedding present to the nicest restaurant in town.  We also ate the top layer of our cake, as we figured it would be freezer burned on our 1st anniversary.  As for months 2 and 3, we didn't do anything.  I'd imagine we probably won't really celebrate now until our 1 year.

    We have been married almost 2 mths now and we did little things to acknowledge the different milestones as we always have during our relationship. The week after we were married I came home to flowers and dinner because he was so excited that I got all my name change done that day. Then I bought him his favorite ice cream cake for 2 weeks only because we dont get a lot of free time togethor. He even said that he will still acknowlege our dating anniversary which is next month about a week after our 2mth wedding anny!

    He bought me flowers for our one month anniversary - for our 3 and 6 months we will probably go to dinner somewhere (we have a nice GC to use!) but other than that we just say "Happy Anniversary" and giggle (at least I giggle)

    We actually have celebrated our monthly anniversary every single month since we started dating.  This coming 21st is 34 months (we got engaged at 31 months).  We're getting married on the 23rd, though, so after that we'll celebrate on the 23rd.  It's not a big celebration - just going out to dinner or for drinks and wishing each other a happy anniversary!

    We mention it, and if I remember it I say things like "I was getting my hair done this time xxx months ago, what were you doing?" As time goes on I wonder if we'll keep it up.

    We're not married yet and haven't month celebrated since before the one year mark. That's a lot of cards and flowers and dinners!
