My DH and I will celebrate our 10th anniversary in 2006; however, being the compulsive planner that I am, I am already working on it! Anyway, we are trying to compromise and here's the story:
My DH does NOT want a formal VR ceremony. Basically, he knows his family will not make the trip and that my family will want to and he doesn't want to deal with that. He also does NOT want to go in May and be there for our actual anniversary (too hot and too many lines).
Therefore, I have told him he can pick any month that he would like (He will probably pick January since we had the best time that time of the year.). BUT, we would do SOMETHING for our 10th and it WON'T be a formal VR ceremony.
Here's where the creativity part comes in! I need some ideas on what to do. We don't find dining to be particularly romantic, so I'm looking for ideas that are not restaurants/dining experiences. Also, looking to keep the "event" under $1000 (hopefully less, but that is the max). Additionally, it does not have to be anything that is "romantic" in the usual sense. We both have a great sense of humor and would rather do something fun and different and look back in 50 years and say "do you remember our 10th anniversary when we...". Also, we don't have any children and don't plan on having them before the anniversary, so they don't have to be included in the plan.
What do you guys think? Any ideas?
Thanks for all your help!
