We spread out our celebrations over a week's time. First, we went to a hotel downtown for a night. We had a wonderful, fancy dinner where we had our own little room with drawn curtains, and they even put our name on the menus!

Our hotel room came equipped with a bottle of bubbly and chocolate covered strawberries.

And all this would have been just as romantic as it sounds if I hadn't had the stomach flu that night. That was a nice little surprise after dinner. The weekend wasn't a total loss. We still got to spend time together in a beautiful hotel, order room service (which I obviously didn't eat much of) and order an in room movie. David of course got sick two days later, but the celebrations continued!
On our actual anniversary, we had a fabulous meal at a little neighborhood Italian place called Amore Victoria. They put us in their "love cove" and it was wonderfully romantic.

And of course we kept with the timeless tradition of freezing the top tier of the wedding cake to consume on your first anniversary. It was surprisingly still quite delicious.

And still so pretty, no?
I'm so lucky to have married my best friend. And really, we were the best of friends long before we ever started dating. I could go on with the mushy, cheesy sentiments (and by mushy and cheesy I mean heartfelt and genuine) but I'll spare you.
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY DAVID!
I LOVE YOU!
