Wedding Anniversary
 

On May 17, DH and I celebrate our 25th. wedding anniversary, I did not want to buy another shirt, or a perfume,or a tie ( thats reserved for fathers day LOL)
I had been in US for only 5 years when we got married, and we could not afford a celebration, so we went with our parents, to the City Hall, sign our papers, and came back to our new 1 bedroom apartment were we had a cake a few things my mom had made, took some pictures, and off we went to Cancun for our honeymoon.
DH is not big on celebrating anything, but this year I want to make something special, not really big, but meaningful.Going on a second Honeymoon came to mind, but its out of the question, we don't have enough time ($). But I thought we could have a few friends and family over and have a little get together.
If the ladies reading this are something like me, that even at 48 like to day dream, Im sure you'll understand. I wanted to dedicate a song to my husband, and maybe have a little dance.
I found this on You Tube, and brought back so many memories.
For the younger crowd may seem funny, but Im sure for the not so young, this will take you back in time.
Can you suggest any other song, for this occasion ?

Oh Pooh! I can't view it Mary. It's a video. LOL blocks on video's here
at work. I'll check it out tonight at home.

P.S. What is the song title?

Happy soon to be 25th wedding anniversay.

Mine would have been 50 yrs 5/7.

Lovin' you by Minnie Riperton...50 years, WOW!!!

I was a child bride. (17). LOL

Yes, I sure do remember that song. I'm sure your hubby will be very
pleased with your thoughtfullness.

Can you think of any other song?

"We only just begun" (Carpenter's) sounds appropriate too.

The Carpenter's song was played at our Wedding in 73. Seems like yesterday.

Now, what is the name of that song "She drives me crazy". :D J/K Marge!

lol, I'm sure she has every right too as well:)

LOL, not unless they come up with a new version
"He drives me crazy"
We only just begun was an option, but my SIL played it on her wedding

Wanna go back alittle farther?

How about "It had to be you"? I think Tony Bennett sang it and so
did Frank Sinatra, however, maybe even before that. I'm not this old,
I don't remember. LOL

I have it by Frank Sinatra, and I love it! Also though about When a fall in love by Nat King Cole

Oh heavens Mary, the list can go on and on.

Only You, You are my everything, The wonder of you (Elvis),
After the loving (Englebert). Ok now I"m getting lost in the past.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm memories.

LOL. thank you for your suggestions

Whatever you decide, I'm sure he will be touched by it.

i don't know about taking you back in time, but here are some suggestions:

my husband and i have a favorite song - "When You Say Nothing at All"
it's been sung by ronan keating, allison krauss and others. i love allison's version:

It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd
Old Mr. Webster could never define
What's being said between your heart and mine

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

another one that might be fitting for a couple who got married young is shania twain - "You're Still the One"

(When I first saw you, I saw love.
And the first time you touched me, I felt love.
And after all this time, you're still the one I love.)

Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
We mighta took the long way
We knew we'd get there someday

Bridge:
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong

Chorus:
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night

Ain't nothin' better
We beat the odds together
I'm glad we didn't listen
Look at what we would be missin'

(Bridge)
(Chorus)
(Chorus)

I'm so glad we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
