How do i tell my husband to change his first marriage anniversary plan?

And watch mil demand the same for her and sil....on the anniversary....:rotfl:rotfl

just joking......
why not both??

 

Remind your hubby marriage anniversaries are for re-living the night of conjugal bliss. What is the role of in-laws and others that night, ask him does he expect his parents to strew flowers and buds on you like when all gods and goddesses showered flowers when kaamdev and rati made love .....eeks. Others have no place in marriage anniversary - why can't husbands get it ?

 

Sister Iamagoodgirl,

Wishing you a great First anniversary and many more occasions to celebrate, May Baba bless you couple with abundance. Sairam.

If I were you, would take ILs and family for a Dinner much earlier (prior weekend) on pretext of celebration with all of them and that the makes family sentiment celebration get over and now the couple can enjoy their day at peace at Dinner or a weekend out of home, you see people cant tag along for every other place we go, when an year old anniversary couple enjoy their day.

May be extra expense but otherwise peaceful and memorable life time event.

 

Plan on two celebrations one with only the two of you and the other with all the baratis. Choose whatever date works for either. It is the celebration that matters not the exact day. So if you have to go a week earlier or later, it should be ok. Cost of living in a joint family.

 

Waisay....did you ask him why the change in plan?

 

:yes:

This certainly sends a solid message. If family's to come, then invite everyone!

The others have already given really good suggestions.

Had I been in your shoes, I'd strongly consider doing a separate one with family (brunch or lunch) but most certainly keep some special romantic events just for the two of you.

Frankly, the idea of celebrating a romantic anniversary getaway with family is really, really weird. That's kind of like "I deserve to crash your honeymoon because my husband never took me to a honeymoon after our wedding." Never mind the fact that this SIL probably wouldn't return the sentiment, let alone, consider it for you and her brother in the same way.

If three a crowd in a honeymoon then it surely is for a romantic anniversary getaway. Don't need an audience.

 

Agree to his plan and let them come.. Then after couple of days *you* privately plan something and take him with you. So basically 2 celebrations. Be mysterious about it. IF he asks why again, reply the other night celebration was just like any other family celebration. Laga hi nahin ki marriage anniv celebrate kar rahe hain! Tell him you didnt have a chance to really talk to him and tell him so many things. That you want to celebrate this milestone which is special and meaningful to only the two of you in a special and private way.

Happy Anni!!

 

Rihana, don't you think both are needed. One during day and one during night.:bonk
