Is celebrating anniversaries a cultural thing? It is common here in the US, but I know there is one religion that I think doesn't believe in celebrating birthdays or anniversaries. Anyway...we've had 36 anniversaries, and we do good to remember the day and we usually just give cards to each other. LOL

We dont celebrate.
On the day we spend the day as a usual day.
I dont have any special inclination for the day.

for the past ten fifteen years, my husband and I would go out every year, now due to the fact that were broke, unfortunately, we just stay home.

My husband and I are married for over a year now, on our first anniversary we went to a beach named White Beach Puerto Galera with our son. We had a lot of fun chasing our active son in the shallow water, playing on the sand and eating a lot. On our next anniversary this coming April we'll be going to Boracay Island Philippines, it's better than the first one we visited but the cost is higher too because we have to ride a plane to get there.
My parents don't celebrate, because I think they just married for their good looks and money, now that they are old anf not rich anymore they argue a lot but won't live in separate houses so we can all live in peace.

in my two years of marriage i have celebrated almost all the occasions with my hubby. including all the birthdays + aniversay+ valentines+ all the festivals. my hubby loves to celeberate. even on weakends he cannot sit home. he loves to explore new places, eating joints, coffee houses etc with family and friends. but on our aniversay we don't invite anyone and only two of us go to celeberate.

We like to keep it simple. We usually don't exchange gifts, but we will give each other cards or a note. Then we will probably head off somewhere for a quick overnight trip. We'll get a nice dinner and walk around. I think anniversaries are milestones and should be celebrated, but you don't have to spend money to do it.

I've been married for 5 yrs, we celebrate our wedding anniversary, also the day we met (6.5 yrs) because they are 6 months apart, and that gives us a good excuse to go out alone.
We take the kids to my dad's house and we go out to dinner, and exchange gifts. Sometimes we'll go to a B&B a few hours from where we live and sometimes we'll just come home and enjoy time alone! If we are coming home we'll usually go do something fun before we come home. Then we get to sleep in the next morning!! And my husband makes breakfast in the morning for me.
I'm sorry you don't celebrate this special day. If you would like to maybe make your husband a special dinner and get him a gift. Start out small and maybe he'll get the idea!
My husband will take any excuse to dote on me. He had a female friend with him one year as he was shopping for a gift for our anniversary. She was shocked at how much he got me and how much thought he put into it all.
