I'm working on a feature about how couples plan meaningful anniversary trips, and I'd love to hear from REAL couples who marked a significant anniversary with a memorable trip. Maybe that meant revisiting somewhere important from earlier in your relationship, trying something completely new together, gathering friends or family, finally taking a long-delayed dream trip, or celebrating in some other way that felt particularly personal. I'm interested in hearing from couples of different ages, backgrounds, identities, relationship lengths, and travel styles. The trip does not need to have been extravagant or traditionally “romantic.” In fact, unusual or off-the-beaten-path choices are especially welcome. If you'd like to be considered, please send: * First and last names of both partners * Ages * Where you live (city/state or city/country) * How long you've been together * Which anniversary you were celebrating when you took the trip * Where you traveled and when * Why you chose that particular destination or trip * A brief description of what you did * How the trip actually went, including anything especially memorable, surprising, meaningful, funny, difficult, or different from what you expected * Why the trip felt right for that particular stage of your relationship Thanks in advance!
