BIL and his lovely finacee are getting married on Saturday. My whole family is in the wedding--DH is best man, DS is ringbearer, DD is flowergirl, and I am a bridesmaid.

At the rehersal dinner, I'd like to have everyone write down advice for a happy marriage. However, I'd like to list some categories or prompts for guests (there will be about 50 people). The advice will be written on stationary, sealed in an envelope and labeled for when to open it. Things like:
First big fight
First anniversary
First baby
First house


I need some more creative ideas! Help me out mamas--I've got less than 36 hours!

How about some random ones...like just put dates on there. I'm just thinking there doesn't have to be something big in our lives for us to refocus on our marriage.

Great idea BTW!
