wedding week: first anniversary.


one year ago today, austin and i celebrated our one year anniversary. it wasn't a huge celebration, but that's kind of how we do things: simple, meaningful, and fun.

we started our anniversary weekend with a fun hike up on signal mountain.


we enjoyed year old wedding cake and champagne at midnight when it was officially our anniversary {a tradition i'm determined to make happen every year, but with fresh cake, please}.

the traditional first anniversary wedding gift is paper. and although that sounds pretty lame, it actually just means you have a lot of options! we didn't really do a gift exchange. instead we kind of gifted each other with a gift certificate to terra nostra where we had tapas and sangria.

you can read the original post about our first anniversary here. it really was a great weekend. and perfect for us.

so now that it's time to celebrate our second anniversary, i'm wondering what we'll do to mark this milestone. and i'm also wondering what kind of gifts we'll do since the traditional second anniversary gift is cotton... either way, i'll be back at some point with all the details. whether you like it or not, really.

i hope you all have enjoyed wedding week 2012. i know i've really enjoyed getting to look back at all the pictures from our wedding, including all the prep work and celebrations. it reminds me how blessed i am to have such awesome family and friends. and how lucky i am to have an amazing husband. here's to many, many more anniversaries between us.
