    Send him a letter each week via snail mail. You could count down with reasons you love him. Or you could have the letters for each month go together with a different theme, like for October you could write about Halloween memories, his favorite candy or how scared he gets over ghost movies.

    Maybe each time another month passes, find some way to celebrate together!

    Hey Amanda-Joi!

    How far away do you guys live from each other? Do you get to visit each other very often?

    If you get to visit each other, you could take turns to plan special dates for your visits, even if its just coffee in your favorite cafe and a walk. Just something that you can do together to spend quality time.

    If you don’t get to visit each other very often, then I love the letter idea! It will be so much more personal and special than a text or an email and is definitely something that you will both be able to keep forever. Perhaps you could even make them into a book after your wedding!

    We live together but we both work 65+ hours a week. so when we get home, sometimes the whole wedding planning thing is the last thing on our minds. but ever since he found out the WW app has a countdown, every once in awhile he guesses how many days are left in our count down. It's actually kinda cute. However, I am the one thats up early and I pack his lunch everyday, and sometimes I will write on the ziploc baggie, sandwhiches or whatever) a short love note. Just to remind him I am thinking about him and I cannot wait to marry my best friend. We are moving in just under 3 weeks and we are cleaning out our closets in more ways than one. Just the other day, I found a picture of us when we were about 3 months into our relationship. It was almost looking at facebook memory but this photo I had developed. It made us both giggle and just take a step back from our 'in the now' lives and just be smushy and stuff. Almost immediately after that, he wants to be involved in one aspect of the wedding because he has this idea for something. Just remember it's the small things that you remember!
