Plan to spend time "together".   Have a pizza delivered, kick back and watch a movie with some spirits, enjoy a hot bubble bath together with candle light and soft music....etc, etc, etc.

You save the top cake for your first anniversary.  Make sure you wrap it very well and put it in the freezer.  How & when you decide to cut the cake is up to you.  This is one of the many traditions that you and your hubby will set for yourselves in your long, healthy, prosperous life together.  \n\nExample:  I cut my cake and shared it with my mother, grandmother and husband in my mom's kitchen.  We talked and shared our engagement & wedding memories in a very informal setting.  To this day,  I cherish that moment.

Take lots of pictures, you'll really treasure these later, Take video, too. It's really fun looking back at these...We still do!\nMake it fun! Laugh and talk and enjoy your time together\nLook up restaurants on the computer, that you'd like to try.\nLook up the interesting points to visit in the area, and see them and take video\nHave champagne and bubble baths together ( no photos!) \nDo leisurely things, watch a little tv, go have a cappucino together,  see a play if any in the area, have cocktails, go dancing!\n\n (I'm making myself wish I could run out and get married, just so I could have another honeymoon!;~)\nHave  a  wonderful  and  romantic  Honeymoon!

Which anniversary is it? If it's the first year there are traditional gifts to give. The traditional gift for a first year marriage is paper. The modern gift is plastic, gold jewelry, and clocks. below are some links to give you an idea of what you may want to go for. The perfect gift in my opinion is always to start a scrapbook with someone who share so much with and have it continue for the rest of your lives together, when you're old and grey you and your children can sit around and look at where it all began.

Myh husband and I went to an extremely romantic, restraunt.  I loved it cause it was small and quaint yet upscale...it was great.  Afterwards, we went to a nice bed and breakfast.  We ate our cake we froze for a year (surprisinly not that bad).  It was a nice get away & fun.  The dinner  was a special treat cause we can't afford to go to expensive restraunts...our anniversary is the only time of the year we splurge for it.  Whatever you do, make it about the 2 of you...remember your wedding day and the great reasons you love each other and got married!

You could try a bed and breakfast which is always romantic.\nif you have done this, how about a weekend around your place? My hubby and I have done this before. \nFirst, make sure your house is very clean! You don't want to be thinking that you should be doing somethng around the house, this weekend if just for the two of you.\nNow, plan your weekend together, tennis, golf, even minature golf! Make reservations at your favorite restaurant, wear something sexy for him at dinner (possibly something absolutely sinful underneath a coat or sweater) and tell him what your going to do to him when you get home.\nGo to some local places that you may have been interested in but haven't made it there. Check with your local chamber of commerce too!\nGood luck and happy anniversary!

get him a jersey of his fave football or basketball player...if he doesn't like sports and is sappy you could pick 2 stars right next to eachother and name them after the two of you...i think it's like $150 or something like that...i think that it just so romantic but you can't do it unless he's the kind of guy who appreciates things like that. good luck and happy early anniversary!!

I'm glad you asked this question... my one year is coming up in october.  i'm going to put this on my watch list.  although, he and i are thinking about hawai'i for our anniversary.. but its more like, we've dated for the past three years but have only been "official" since last october.  soooo yeah.  also, I'm not sure if hawai'i is an option for you due to age (possibly) or money (not implying anything)  I'd go with a watch.  a nice shirt.  some expensive cologne.  or you could make a photo album for you two with pictures, concert ticket or movie ticket stubs you've attended together.  maybe even some professional pictures of yourself for him.

According to Hallmark...Wedding Anniversary gifts are specified for each year up to the 15th.  After that, it basically gives something specific for every 5 years, 20th, 25th, etc. The 20th traditional gift is China and the Modern is Platinum.  The 25th traditional is Silver and the Modern is also silver.  I suggest a personalized engraved item or some type of jewelry (A new watch?). It really depends on the likes of the person. An engraved beer mug, a lighter, pen set or desk set.  Also, don't forget a great dinner somewhere. Maybe there's a show coming to town or concert and you could also get the tickets in advance  (Or give an IOU when they go on sale) and put them in a card. Whatever you do, enjoy yourselves.  It's not just about material things. Oh, and CONGRATULATIONS on keeping it together this long.

Gosh, this is a loaded question!  It all depends on so much!  Do you have kids, howz your sex life...how creative do you want to be?!  The romantic dinner is a GREAT idea to start with!  There are some very romantic sexual games you can play after to spice things up. ("An Enchanted Evening" as an example)  To really save money you could make him a wonderful "coupon book" that he may use all year (Until your 7th anniversary)  Including back rubs, hugs, kisses, sexual favors, picinic lunch, his favorite home cooked meal....

My favorite times with my loved one is when we actually have time to sit and reflect about what the other one means to us. Going out to eat is traditionally what is done on an anniversary, but I prefer one on one time where there is nobody else around. No strangers talking loudly, no waiters to interrupt, no time wasted in line or in the car.  \n\nIn my opinion, Anniversaries are about each other, and to do that, you've gotta block out the rest of the world.  Here's my recipe for a fabulous anniversary. FIRST, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, GET SOME PAPER, PENS, AND AN ENVELOPE. I'll tell you why in a little bit.\n\nNext, plan the environment - Stay home (or rent a hotel if you want to get away from the day-to-day). Turn off the lights, turn on the music, light the candles.  Put your favorite (but easy to prepare) foods around you - cheeses, pizza, strawberries, chocolate, wine, etc.\n\nNow here comes the important part - sit directly in front of each other on the floor. Knee to knee, and eye to eye. Be sure to hold hands and feed each other. Talk about 'the time when we...' or 'that one time when we...'. Before you know it, hours will have passed. Don't be afraid to sip a little more wine than what you normally do. You'll soon find yourself maybe getting a little frisky. \n\nBut before you go any further, grab that piece of paper and pen, and write down a few lines about what that other person means to you. How they make you feel, and why you love them. Why you appreciate them. The more specific you get the better. For example, I love my man more everytime I catch him acting like a little kid when he thinks no one is around. Now don't let the other person read it. Seal it in the envelope, and save it for your next anniversary. It's so fun, and gives you something really fantastic to look forward to. \n\nNow would be a good time to finish off the night with a long kiss...and maybe more.\n\nYou've just created a wonderful memory of the two of you together, sincerely enjoying each other.\n\nMuch better than some boring evening at an overpriced restaurant where nobody talked to each other, don't you think?

All your ideas are GREAT! The trip to the film festival sounds intriguing. A fun trip with another couple or group of mutual friends sounds like a lot of fun. \n\n I think I would leave the large party and renewal of vows for the 25th Anniversary.

1st year is paper. Some ideas to go along with that are:\n\n1. Write him a love letter about the joys your first year together have brought you and your hopes and dreams for the future.\n\n2. Something you make with origami like the crane for "good luck"\n\n3. Cash munnney (like Fez says on "that 70s show")\n\n4. Have a "Best Husband" certificate made up at Kinkos or someplace; or do a poster or paper banner to that effect.\n\n5. Get him a subscription for a year's worth of his favorite magazine "Welder's Monthly" or SI or something.\n\nLet your imagination run wild: Greet him at the door wrapped in gift wrap and YOU be his gift!\n\nHave fun!
