Alpo Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 My daughter got married on Valentine's Day. So her husband would remember the anniversary. I got married on D-Day, so I would remember our anniversary. You hear about people getting married on his birthday, or on her birthday, or on some other day that has special meaning to one or the other of them. In the book I'm reading the woman decides to get married on Halloween. Because the idea of marriage is so scary. I don't know. I just thought that was a cool way of looking at it.

Ozark Huckleberry Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Guy I flew with in the Navy was getting married, asked me if I could suggest something romantic to have inscribed inside the rings. I told him two linked hearts and the date of the wedding, and that he could thank me later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yul Lose Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Valentines Day 1988 was the day my divorce to the practice (ex) wife was final. The judge asked if I wanted him to wait a day to record it and I insisted he keep the date the 14th. Just something special about that day.

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 I got married on July 16 and never had to remember it. I always did, but my wife hinted pretty hard for 51 years. She was born on D Day 1946. My parents were married the first time on April Fool's Day. My birthday was income tax day.....The Ides of March! They later moved it (tax day, not my birthday) to April 15 from March 15..

Alpo Posted June 23 Author Share Posted June 23 My parents got married on March 22nd. For their second anniversary my father gave my mother a brand new 1954 Oldsmobile Delta 88. And my mother gave my father a son. I used to have great fun telling people that my parents were married on my brother's birthday. They would nod their head and then kind of do a double take.

Pat Riot Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 April 12th is our anniversary. It was scheduled for March 22nd, but the Navy put the kaibosh to that date. So we put the wedding off to the 12th of April. We’ve been married 44 years now. Neither date held any real significance when we chose them. We were planning around my Naval Training School schedules.

Michigan Slim Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Got married on August 5th. No special significance other than that is the day she said we were getting married. We waited for my 21st birthday in July so I could have a sip at our reception. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stump Water Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 August 9th. Nothing special about the day, but... on our wedding day my dad presented us with the mantel clock that his parents had been gifted with on their wedding day - August 9th 1909. After dad found out when our wedding day was going to be, he dug the clock out of storage and had it mechanically restored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-BAR #18287 Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Our daughter and her fiance chose Saturday, November 15, 2003 as their wedding date. Opening Day for the regular firearms deer season in Missouri. I guess I have forgiven them by now. Maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdeacon Joe Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 "What day shall we ge married?" "How about the first Saturday in May?" "Sounds good." (checks calendar) "Hey! That's Beltane Coronation AND Cinco de Mayo!" "Cool! We do the wedding (before we were Orthodox, hired a minister and got married in our front yard, after all, a wedding is a public declaration), have our lunch with the family, drive down and let all our SCA friends know. " "AND we'll always be able to find a party if we want one." ADDED: just celebrated our 34th last month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was born exactly nine months after the Michigan 15th opener! I was either a good luck at deer camp or a welcome home from deer camp surprise.
