Russell Wilson and singer wife Ciara know how to keep their love strong

National Football League (NFL) star Russell Wilson and his singer wife Ciara celebrated their first wedding anniversary last weekend in Mexico. The couple, who tied the knot on July 6 in a castle in England, surprised each other with some romantic gestures. Ciara posted a picture (below right) on Instagram of a bed with white sheets covered with rose petals arranged as R+C.

"I tried to plan things for the day, but he wouldn't let me. Twas A Perfect Day. The simple things are the sweetest #1yearAnniversary," she wrote on Twitter. She also surprised her husband with an airplane with a banner that read, "Happy 1 Year Baby! YAY! I love you! I'm Grateful to God for the Love he has given me, by putting you in my life. I have all that I need.

Truly 1 of the Best years of my life."

Russell too posted his own personal message on Instagram, which was a video clip from the couple's wedding. "Love. Indescribable Love. 1 year! Years don't matter however when it's Forever. @Ciara."
