Re: Post Your First Anniversary Gift Ideas
We're big disney nuts, so we rented a house in florida (cheaper and roomier than a hotel) during the winter season, since we've never seen disney during christmas.

Re: Post Your First Anniversary Gift Ideas
We are planning to go to Italy and if we do, we'll probably splurge on something there.
If not, I was think about buying him a really nice watch. I have my eye on a David Yurman ring that I want for myself.
Randi - I can't beleive you have been married for almost a year!!!!

Re: Post Your First Anniversary Gift Ideas
we are going to try and vacay.
for us, i think the vacation is gift enough - and then shopping while on the acation for that little something extra is always mandatory!
if we do not get to get away I am going to try and save for a
- gc for a massage with his favorite holistic healer lady
- binoculars and sign him up for bird watching sessions. (he is obsessed with animals.)
- clothes! The poor man has not bought himself anything in almost a year.
- Collectors Edition DVD's - his alltime favorite gift and thing to collet.

Re: Post Your First Anniversary Gift Ideas
We are buying a house, moving to a new state and starting new jobs...so I'm not sure how much cash we'll have. And it totally suxs because we haven't bought each other anything since the wedding.  If we can afford something...I want to spend our anniversary weekend at either the Fairmont in Lake Oconee or the Ritz in Atlanta and do a "romance" package. Plus I want to get him tix to every Mets/Braves game since he's not too happy about leaving NY & his sucky (ahem, great) Mets.

Sasha, your house is so gorgeous! I can't think of a better gift for you to give eachother. 
or shall I say: that's about the size of yours!

We went to Aruba a few weeks after our anniversary.
On our anniversary, I gave him a Movado watch that he wanted, and my gift was skydiving & dinner

Re: Post Your First Anniversary Gift Ideas
We are debating about doing gifts this year. My parents got us an overnight stay at Danfords to celebrate our one year anniversary. I am really looking forward to being there again, since the wedding went by so fast. We will spend the day out East and then dinner and the night at Danfords. And the package includes tickets to the local theater production of Pipin.

Re: Post Your First Anniversary Gift Ideas
My husband's leave falls (conveniently) right over our anniversary, and we're going to try to take a vacation/finish-our-honeymoon during that time - Ireland for a week to see my family and then maybe back to Malta, maybe Egypt, maybe the Virgin Islands - there's so many places I want to see! 
The e-ticket printout counts as paper, right?!
