What wedding anniversary date are you using??

[YaelM]

wierd my 8 came up as a smiley! so ya May 8th is what we are using as our aniversary - the Mexican ceremony

[calchik]

we're getting legally married about 10 days before our mexico ceremony. but we fluked out and got our 2 year anniversary date as our mexico wedding date. so we're sticking with that as it's already our anniversary date.

 

that and our legal ceremony will be like 20 mins just to sign the papers. we're not saying our own vows then. we won't have everyone there that matters to us. it's just a legal procedure so we're not using that date

We are using our Mexico ceremony date, becuase it's the day that we are sharing with our family and friends.

That is awesome it worked out that way! I guess we're kinda in a similar boat - at least our legal anniversary and marriage date are a little bit close (Dec/Nov)... how weird it will be to be married a year already at our wedding ceremonies!

We're using our Mexican wedding date. The legal ceremony is just for paperwork

My girlfriend that was married this past august is using her ceremony date. We may actually get married 3-4 months before our ceremony for my personal reasons, but me being me i will want to celebrate both dates. I think whichever is more important to you guys or the feeling you have on that day is what could be the determining date.

I know what you mean... we will be married 11 months at our Mexico wedding!! I think we'll probably use our December date as our own little personal anniversary and then just use our November date as our family/friend date. I guess I just thought it would be weird... but they are both important to me

We'll be using our destination wedding date. We are only getting married a few weeks before we go though.

I have wondered the same thing. We were initially going to do a legal ceremony in Mexico, but changed our minds and now our legal day is going to have some meaning to it, cause FI's parents can't come to Mexico, so we are doing our legal day at their house with just them and my parents so I am not sure which to celebrate. We will probably consider Mexico our anniversary but still acknowledge the legal day in a private way.
