year anniversary...limo?

Hi all,
So, I'm planning an outing for me and my girlfriend's 12 monther. I'm thinking of renting a limo! (Found one cheap!)
But this comes with a problem... I just found out a friend of ours are renting one about a week and a half before our anniversary... Do you think I should cancel the limo idea, since it won't be special or new, and TRY to figure out something else cool like that, or just go with it anyways?
Any thoughts? Thanks! :cool:

So I'd say no to the idea. Why not just go for a quiet meal?
It's funny 'cause it's true :thumb:
Of course it depends on what you/she actually likes and enjoys, if you know she'd love a limo drive then go for it and the hell with what other people think!
For my 18th my then boyfriend hired a cadillac and we went driving off into the countryside Grace Kelly-style (well, maybe not him) and then to a lovely restaurant for dinner. Putting a little spin on a classic is never a bad thing, it's just the whole limo/dinner date thing is a little formulaic.
Whatever you decide to do, have fun.. and congrats on reaching a year
Depends Hummer limos are cool!
Depends what you do in the limo tbh
Yep... Screaming "You poor bastards" :yes:
spend the money on something else. :yes:
That would be the best way to spend time in a limo.
That brings about the biggest problem of them all!!!
What to do!?
The current plan...
Nice New Italian Restaurant
A local tower overlook at night
A movie?
I'm a man who likes to go all out...does this sound good enough? I mean, I was hoping to do something really special, but this doesn't seem that great...
Bleh...
Need ideas, stat!
(And a hotel probably won't work out.)
Your current plan sounds alright though.
Definitely wise to skip on the limo though. These days a limo is some kind of shite extended 4x4 with tacky blue neon strips like some kind of 90s chavmobile. No class at all.
Yer me neither, tacky... I rather have sex in the limo tbh, at least it is more original... Hotels are goods for holiday and shit...
Just bring her at yours, cock her dinner, I mean cook her dinner and show few new moves in the bedroom area
Eugh I just got images of him poking his cock in her dinner...nice!
Anyway yeah limos are tacky full stop. I'm not really a fan of hotels either, like surely it's pointless if they're just local? Fair enough if you're going away somewhere for the weekend or on holiday.
A meal is always good, maybe go for some cocktails before or something at a nice bar (dunno how old you are..).
Personally I like a bit of a road trip somewhere different, if you've got a whole day together and it's sunny then there's plenty of stuff you can do outside, many of which don't have to cost money.
Yer, cos that's classy :rolleyes:
We did a really nice hotel thing recently. We went to a gorgeous, posh hotel, went out for a really nice dinner, had some wine by the canal and it was really nice. We didn't go just to have sex in a different bed. We went to do something different that we wouldn't do every weekend and to get away for a night without having to worry about trains or buses to get home. It was really nice, relaxed and I would highly recommend it.
Obviously, it would depend on the hotel too ...
As for ideas, it depends what their is locally.
A hotel I -GUESS- is plausible, but not 100% sure on it due to parents. (We're 17-18 age area.)
I already own a sports car myself, so hiring a car wouldn't be a change at all.
And there are no lakes....anywhere around here...unfortunately.
And yes, I am living at home as of right now due to school...so...house is out.
So... need more ideas! :shocking:
So I can give you ideas on what we did.
I got him a pocket knife and a samuri sword, coz he's into that stuff, aswell as his ring that I got him for our 6monther engraved, a box of condoms, kama sutra foreplay cards, and choc body paint - yummy stuff - dark Belguim choc. mmm.
He got me a ring and my fav movie that came out as a PS2 game - as I also love PS2.
So when his parents were out we played
We went out to dinner too.
Kinda boring but thats what we did.
Another thing I did randomly, was - and maybe if you have a close r/ship with your parents - get them outta the house, cook her a 3 course meal, candles on the table and a bottle of wine, put arrows through the house to a room where you are waiting with presents, and it will be cute as.
I did this randomly one time when he had work till 9pm and his parents were out for the night. His reaction was so cute
So.... now what?
I need more ideas! >.<
Go for horse-drawn carriage.
Anything you do now you will only be expected to exceed in future anniversarys to come so set the bar low and you have nothing to achieve
If you really feel you have to do something however, i'd suggest a meal in a nice restaurant followed by a few drinks in a quiet wine bar.
