- [adrienne] today's myfive-year wedding anniversary with my husband, christian, so instead of doing a cooking video, i'm feeling sentimentaland just wanted to reflect a little bit about life andlove and marriage and change.
10 Year Wedding Anniversary Party Ideas, something i think about a lot is a study that i read a few years ago, where they found that peoplegenerally have this feeling that who they are todayis the final, fully-formed
version of themselves. despite the fact thatevery single one of us 10 years from now will becompletely different people. what i think is mostinteresting about it is the researchers whodid the study could not shake their feeling that theyalso are fully-formed versions of themselves, will never change. even though they did the research, they know for a factthat they are changing.
it's just something that'sreally deeply rooted in us that we think we know who we are. and i feel like ihaven't changed that much in the past five years. which is why it was reallystriking to just dig out video footage from ourwedding from five years ago, and remember that tons has changed for us and for our family and friends. a lot of people have dealt withdivorce and we've had death
and new babies and newdogs and new apartments and new jobs and new camera equipment. we filmed it all on flipcams, remember those? it's just interesting to rememberthat we are all changing. so with marriage, the topic of change is kind of an interesting thing,because on the flip side, i feel like you need to go into a marriage knowing that the person won't change. if there's something thatbothers you about them,
you need to accept that and be willing to live with that forever becauseit's not going to change. you need to marry theperson who you like today, and not some fake version of them that you think you cancreate down the line. but at the same time, we're all growing and changing every day. we have moved to brooklyn, and i've picked upcompletely new skill sets
of video production andyoutube and gardening. christian has run four ultra-marathons. what hasn't changed is that ultimately, christian and i respect each other, and i think that's oneof the biggest elements of a successful marriage as far as i know, only five years in. no matter what happens, wewant to support each other in each of us being thebest versions of ourselves
and doing what we wanna do in our lives. it has made doing scarythings so much easier knowing that the best person in the world thinks that i'm great. this is a guy who is justbursting with energy, you can see it on the dance floor. and he just smiles and itis the best thing ever. ♫ it's the curl of your lip ♫ a smile that is swung from the hip
♫ you casually give in ♫ and now you're bringing me to the floor ♫ you've got me on all fours ♫ and i don't wanna let this feeling go ♫ - [adrienne] the onlything that comes to mind looking at this wedding footage is that the wedding doesn't matter that much, and you don't need to stress about it. because i've had people over the years say
they had such a great time at our wedding and they remember it really fondly. and literally no one remembers that we broke all the rules,we did not serve food, we only had an open barfor the first two hours, and then we made peoplebuy their own drinks. no one cares and no one remembers. so, if you're planning awedding do what you want and don't worry about it.
so, christian, thank you forbeing great for five years of marriage and many more. to friends and family,thank you for supporting us at our wedding and inthe intervening years and for growing and changing with us. and to you guys, thank you for being great and going along with the ride with me when i'm not necessarilyalways doing cooking videos and sharing a little bitmore of what i'm doing
