Lilly & Arnav

Tradition. I’ve been thinking about the definition of tradition for a long time. Growing up the word used to have a mixed meaning for me. Sometimes it was an old, stuffy way of doing things and treating people that I could never truly understand. Other times it was these events, big or small, that forged everlasting memories. It can be hard to separate the two, but the latter is the way I want to handle traditions in our life together - building meaningful, intentional events that will always commemorate the happiest times of our lives.

In honor of our wedding - and to a lesser degree our mini-moon and honeymoon - I want to start a tradition. Every anniversary, I want to cook and eat a great meal, dance our wedding dance, and sit without our phones or the distractions of the world and just soak in each other’s company. Every year, I want us to find a way to do that.

You’ll be able to see the schedule (and menu) for our special celebration and RSVP because I think it’s cute!! Next year and onwards, I won’t need to do that because on April 5th, we will eat and dance to Shania Twain and look into each other’s eyes and laugh - do all the things I can’t wait to do for the rest of our lives. This year, I’ll see you in OUR HOME for a night to remember. I love you.
