- 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.
