Wedding Day Mementos

Wedding day mementos are saved by many couples. Here are a few ways you can use them on your anniversaries.
  • Save the top layer of your wedding cake and share it with one another on your first wedding anniversary.
  • Melt the candles that were used at your wedding ceremony or reception into one big candle that you can light each year on your anniversary date.
  • If you saved or dried your wedding bouquet, use it as a centerpiece for any anniversary dinners that you have at home.
  • You probably have a pile of unused napkins from your wedding reception. Use them on your anniversaries, especially on your paper (first) anniversary.
