Marriage License and Anniversary

I think you should do whatever you want. I’m sure we’ll acknowledge our dating anniversary, but probably won’t celebrate it anymore after the wedding.

We’ve never been the type to celebrate the anniversary of our first date, so this never even crossed my mind. I think the wedding is just such an event and life step that people focus on celebrating just that. Nonetheless you guys can do whatever you want! Have first date, engagement, license and wedding anniversary celebrations if that’s meaningful to you guys. 😊

Hey Courtney!! Congratulations on picking up your marriage license!! That’s so exciting!!

When it comes to celebrating your relationship, you and your FH should find something that is special and meaningful to you. If you would like to celebrate both, then go for it! That sounds like a lot of fun!!

People’s opinions about whether they find it frivolous or not should not deter you from celebrating your relationship in the way you want and enjoy.

I have thought about this too!

I think a formal celebration I would probably just do big dates (10 years together for example) 🤷🏻‍♀️ but I haven't discussed this with my fiancé so I don't even know if he has the same idea haha he remembers our anniversary usually better than I do haha

But it really boils down to what you and your partner think. I personally like the idea of celebrating the years that you have been together before getting married because it is still a time that you have been committed to one another and established memories with one another even though it wasn't with the same last name ☺️

My fiancé and I have been together for almost 7 years too!💕
