We like the idea of traditional gifts... and the first year is paper. We were both stumped and perplexed for a little while... and then my creative side came out.
I ended up typing out our wedding vows to each other on Photoshop and printed them out in 5x7 size. I trimmed off the excess white border, and put them in opposite sides of a three window frame. For the middle window, I had to include a wedding photo, of course! I chose one of my favorites, made it black and white, printed it to 5x7, and trimmed the white border.
I made sure to print all three on cardstock to play it safe... that counts as paper, right?
Dan went with concert tickets for me. Tickets = paper... I'm convinced. We're going to see The Rolling Stones play in what is probably their last tour ever... at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City (where the Chiefs play)! This is seriously my dream concert in my dream venue. I'm a little nervous about being 29 weeks pregnant at the time, but... Baby Cookie will just end up loving classic rock 'n roll, right? It's the same day as our baby shower, so we'll be going after that, and I'm stoked! (He technically didn't buy the tickets yet because he's been monitoring them online at other locations, and the prices are dropping significantly shortly before the concerts... so we're going to do that!)
