Celebrating with Paper

Today is our first wedding anniversary. We celebrated by watching our wedding video, and later today we plan to eat some cupcakes from the baker who made our wedding cupcakes (more on that later). We also exchanged traditional gifts. I have no idea where this tradition came from, but through the power of Google, I learned that the first anniversary is the paper anniversary.

Now, let me just say that there's a lot that went into our wedding. I'm not going to get into every aspect of the planning (because I did that already), but I'll happily summarize with two key points:

1. Our wedding could not have happened without my sister's immense creativity and relentless patience towards me.
2. Every aspect of our wedding was loaded with whimsy.

That being said, it was completely appropriate that my sister decided to follow the paper anniversary tradition by presenting us with a piñata.

Not exactly romantic, but very us.

Do you and your significant other celebrate anniversaries with traditional gifts?
