Planning For Our Destination Honeymoon

Tuesday, January 20th, 2009

   I just wish I knew where our destination was going to be.  There are so many great places to choose from, that it is really hard to decide. But where ever it’s going to be, we’re planning to have the wedding ceremony there too.  After the wedding and reception are over, everyone that attended the celebration will be heading home and me and my new husband will spend six glorious days alone. So we want to pick a spot that is not only beautiful and romantic, but where we can have a great time and enjoy the atmosphere.We both had some super suggestions, but it seemed like everytime another idea came up it sounded better than the last, so we ended up right back at the beginning again. That’s when I made a decision we both agreed on.

   Since we were having a hard time choosing a spot, I decided to go online and find out what the top places for a destination honeymoon are. Then all we would have to do is pick from the list. Simple right?  Wrong, the suggestions were so fantastic we battled with ourselves for a long time before making that final choice. But, we did make the final choice. Our destination would be the Bahamas. Why not? It’s not that far from the states, it has beauty, romance and there are other islands surrounding it to explore and enjoy. This is the perfect spot. There are a lot of hotels that offer inclusive honeymoons, so everything will be paid for up front and all we have to do is enjoy ourselves. We don’t have to worry about paying as we go.  That’s all done before we even get there. My fiance is handling all the honeymoon details, and I have other things to attend to.

   Now that we have taken care of the location, I can start planning the wedding ceremony and reception. It’s all going to take place in the Bahamas and it’s going to be an ocean side ceremony, right on the beach.  This is going to be so awesome. A destination wedding and honeymoon in the fantastic Bahamas, I can’t wait to get out the invitations.

   My mom and sister helped me plan everything I needed to take with me. My bridal gown is absolutely exquisite and I’m sure he will look wonderful in his tux. My little niece is going to be my flower girl and my fiances nephew will be the ring bearer.  I have two bridesmaids and a maid of honor, he has his two groomsmen and his best man.  Other than that it will be just our parents, sisters and brothers.  A very small wedding I know, but a very special one, we will all remember. The invitations are out and everyone has RSVP ‘d so that’s all taken care of. I went shopping the other day online, and found all the accessories and destination wedding favors I need to take along. I also picked up disposable cameras for all my guests and the wedding party.  They will definitely want pictures of this. Speaking of pictures, you should see the wonderful wedding frame I ordered for our wedding photo. It’s perfectly styled for an ocean side wedding picture.

   So, everything is a go and I’m ready to take my vows in one of the most beautiful places on earth. The wedding and reception is only four weeks away, but it seems like an eternity until we get there. I can hardly wait for one of the most beautiful wedding ceremonies and the most fantastic honeymoon I could ever have imagined.
