Wedding Anniversary On Valentine's Day


Three more days and it is already Valentine’s Day. This day, is probably the dreaded day of most single people who had experience the pain of love. They wish that this day should never come. On the other hand, some people, especially lovers, are looking forward to this day. They wait for this day to come in order to profess their love for each other. Some make this day extra special for their love ones by taking them to some fancy hotels to dine or take them to places which bring them good memories or remind them of the good days they have together. Some are even waiting for this day just to propose.


Some people find it cheesy and overly dramatic especially when you can always do these special things for the person you love anytime of the year. Why wait for Valentine’s Day? Why not February 12, March 14 or any other month and day? Well, it has something to with the martyrdom of Valentinus or St. Valentine in February 14. Saint Valentine was famous for performing marriage rites to Christian couples and helping Christians who were being persecuted at that time. My parents were a devotee of St. Valentine which is why they chose this day to tie the knot.


The preparation for the wedding anniversary is almost ready. For the safety of everyone, aside from the exterior wall lights, we also added several outdoor path lighting fixtures and landscape lights which arrived today. We thought that these lighting fixtures will not arrive on time since we ordered them online three days ago. The effects it did to the landscape and garden was amazing. We were all enthralled when we turned on all the landscape lights. It made the place almost magical. I am sure that my parents, whom we have sent away to my aunt's place while preparing for their wedding anniversary, will be please of this new addition to her garden. It will be a lovely surprise for both of them. We all wish that this day will be extra special to them.
