Re: Since most of us are married... do you still celebrate

for logistical reasons, we really can't:

Our dating anniversary is 2 days before my birthday. My birthday is 3 days before XMAS. So, just having my BDay and XMAS so close together is a financial strain on people who are close to me.

Our engagement anniversary is May 26, 2002. Our wedding was May 30, 2004. Both were the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend. So, really, we consider to be the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend to be our "special day"

Nope. We never celebrated our engagement anniverysary though. We were only engaged a year and 2 months before our wedding.

We celebrated our dating anniversary this year, but we lumped it together with Valentine's day and our 6 month wedding annversary, since all three were in February. I suspect we'll continue to lump it with V-day in the future.

Our engagement anniversary is the day after our Wedding anniversary, so we might acknowledge the day, but that's it.

We don't celebrate our dating anniversary anymore. This year, DH remembered it, and I totally forgot!

We don't do anything to "officially" celebrate our engagement anniversary, but it's always acknowledged (it was on Halloween anyway, so easy to remember.)
But we do celebrate our dating anniversary - in fact next Wednesday will be 11 years!!Chat Icon We don't usually do anything really big, but we celebrate.

Re: Since most of us are married... do you still celebrate

We never really celebrated our dating anniversary.

It's a tradition in my family to celebrate your engagement - my parents celebrate their engagement anniversary more than the wedding anniversary.

The thought is that the engagement was the day they decided to spend the rest of their lives together. The wedding day was just when it was most convenient for the church and hall, etc.

I like that sentiment so we celebrate both (or will when we reach one year married). Chat Icon
