  Yes, you are out of line.  Your date is not 'sacred'.  It will forever be your anniversary, regardless of the THOUSANDS of couples who share it as their anniversary too.  Get over yourself.

  This happened a few years ago to some friends. Years before, they got married on a particular day that happened to be FI's birthday (this is way before we started dating). They had no issue taking away his "special day" and didn't even acknowledge it during the reception. Cut to nine years later and we find out another couple elopes on the same day. The reason they chose that date? 1. The minister they needed was only available two weekends that month. 2. The bride's mother is BSC and was coming home the second weekend and the bride DID NOT WANT HER THERE. 3. The bride was pregnant.
  
  Wife of couple #1 went ballistic -- HOW DARE THEY STEAL OUR SPECIAL DAY!? WE'LL HAVE TO SHARE ANNIVERSARIES WITH THEM!!
  
  My response? Um, no you won't because you'll be on your tenth when they're on their first. And didn't you "steal" FI's "special day" from him by getting married on his birthday? So FI joke that we'll get married that day too -- partly so he doesn't have to remember our anniversary, but partly because we're bitches.
  
  CN: It's totally not a big deal. Get over it. You had your day. Enjoy the dinner, champagne and dancing.

  Actually now that I think about it, getting a free meal and free booze on our 1 year anniversary would be a pretty sweet deal!
  
  To give you something to think about. One of my friends celebrated her 4 year anniversary last week. Every single anniversary her husband has been overseas due to military deployement. She had spent every single anniversary by herself or with her friends. Does she care? Not really, because they just have their anniversary celebration whenever he gets home.
