Celebrating long distance wedding anniversary is tricky. Be practical if you are alone this wedding anniversary either you are stuck in some problem, or your partner is. It was compulsory to be away as the scenario demands. Though we always plan celebrations together, there are instances when we might be apart. It is challenging to create that mood of the ceremony without the presence of the other half. It is difficult as you don’t know the availability of the partner throughout the day. All it needs is a mutual co-operation to celebrate.
A wedding anniversary is not a gazetted holiday, period. If the date falls on a weekend, you are blessed and got lucky this time. But but but… It can also fall on a weekday. Sad, but a calendar is not designed only for our celebration. I have a solution for this – If you are not married yet and reading this post. Please marry on a gazetted holiday to save your ass. No, I mean see… partners, men, or women always complain for either forgetting anniversary or not celebrating it well. “Forgetting an anniversary is a crime after marriage.” I am joking! Point to be noted- always remember the anniversary date.
What are the possibilities for celebrating a long-distance wedding anniversary?
1.High priority job meeting
Some meetings are of utmost importance, and you can’t escape that.
2.Urgent work
There might be some urgent work. Probabilities are endless. For example – death, birth, important family meetings, etc.
3.State/ National emergency
There may be a curfew, bandh, lockdown, etc.
What are the prerequisites of celebration for both the partners on a long-distance wedding anniversary?
1.Understanding
Both should understand the concern, why are they apart? Acknowledge the visit’s importance. Carry on the day without grievances before it is over.
2.Communication
Both should discuss their plan for the day. So, it gives a clearer picture.
3.Cooperation
It depends on the temperament of the partner. True, it does. Suppose you want to celebrate, but your spouse doesn’t. What can you do? You can’t do anything. It is only possible if your partner co-operates for a good time together.
Neither all marriages are love marriages, nor all marriages have enough love to understand. There should be excitement from both ends to recreate that wedding smile again. If you are fortunate to have a partner who has got almost the same level of excitement, go ahead, the day is all yours. No distance can come between you and your partner.
Just in case you don’t fall in this category. Take a deep breath and realize not every human is the same. Accept the partner gracefully. Don’t feel unfortunate, instead think about that one thing your partner might like, and you can unbridge the gap.
