Help create Nick and Kim Sasso’s
Ten-Year Anniversary Capsule
Contribute a letter, a photo, a token, perhaps a reminder of
a private joke or
treasured memory…simple souvenirs of your relationship with one
or both of us,
or a personal message to the ‘us’ of the future.
At our wedding and reception Nicole Nappo, Kim's sister, and Jenna, her niece, will collect items to be 'sealed' into the capsule. Neither the Bride nor the Groom will see the contents before the capsule is re-opened on October 21, 2011. Help us celebrate our 10th Anniversary with a momento to remember you.
The capsule is a gorgeous cedar trunk, with brass fittings & hasp,
crafted
by
our Good Friend, Carl Bartz. the original dimensions for
the
whole thing will be around 26"l x 17"w x 19"h. If we run out
of room, we
will ask someone to tell us how much more space is needed, and we
will
make another appropriate vessel to carry our precious cargo for the
years to
come. Since this will only be 10 years in waiting, we are not
concerned
with complex preservation of items. When we open the capsule,
we will
preserve items appropriately for long term archiving. So, share
yourself
and your wishes with us care-free of making it
last.
If you are at a loss for what you might want to contribute, we have
provided a non-exhaustive, by any means, list of
IDEAS FOR ITEMS FOR THE CAPSULE:
* Photo of you and the bride/groom
* Letter with wisdom for the end of our 10th year
* The winning numbers to the Big Game the week we open the capsule
* Inspirational passage or poem
* Funny anecdote of a memory we shared
* A book we should read after a decade of Marriage
* A token or bauble of some significance to you
* Prediction(s) of what our life will be like by then
* A mint set of coins from our wedding year (2001)
* A short note telling us something we need to know
* (unfortunately) Traditional gift for Tenth is Tin/Aluminum
* EVEN BETTER is this site which lists diamond
as the tenth year gift

mood
* Avoid perishable items like food, fresh flowers, and kittens
* Small, portable items like bonds, stocks, negotiable bearer bonds
or large denominations of cash

remains, though)

to find.
* A copy of your non-Atlanta home town paper for our wedding date
(send this to Nicole)
* A CD of music from our wedding year
* A voice recording of a message to us ( it might get a little garbled,
but should be fine)
* Anything that speaks to you that it should be shared with us in
10
glorious years of wedded bliss.
