Actually i was with you on this point. At first I was confused because I thought it was a wedding anniversary. But yes, they should celebrate the milestone, but I think that the traditions of marriage are getting diluted. What markes the event once you get married? extra special paper?
I myself would like to mark the occasion, without assigning any traditional trappings of another institution.
How about thinking of a special activity that you both like, or a special place, and spending some quiet time there. My BF & I spent a lot of time in my residence's fireside room. we went back there to sneak a bottle of wine and some cuddling on our first anniversay of dating...
