Honeymoons

[lacedinlavender]

Where did you and your SO go on your honeymoon? Did you take a long honeymoon, or was it just a few days? Did you leave for your honeymoon right after you got married, or did you wait awhile (days, weeks, even months)?

I'm just curious to know what everyone did. My fiance and I are using his parents' timeshare for ours, so we have to decide where we want to go and what we want to do in the near future.

My husband and I honeymooned in Scotland for four days. We went two days after our wedding.

We'll be young and poor for the most part, so, while we'd like to go out of the country, we'll probably just go to Maine and maybe take a day or two trip to Newfoundland. Or Florida. Or Portland, Oregon. Not sure.
And, we'll probably be going a week or two after our wedding. We're getting married in Minnesota, but we both live in Massachusetts, so we'll get married in Minnesota, drive to Massachusetts with all our new & old stuff.. settle into our apartment, then go to our honeymoon. At least, that's what I think may happen.

We were really poor so we went to Gatlinburg, TN for 3 or 4 days.

I loooooove Gatlinburg!! We live about 3 hours away and make trips there a couple times a summer. It's on our list of possibilities for our honeymoon.

We have a honeymoon in 'spurts'. Going to do all kind of lovely things, each time interspersed with a few days home. We're not going far, but we're going to places we REALLY love.

We had ours a week and a half after the wedding. It was a long weekend in Prague, then we had to come back because of school, assessments, grr It was lovely while it lasted.

We stayed in a suite by the airport the wedding night and flew to Disney World the following morning for 7 days. I was 19 and he was 21. We were both kids at heart and still are.

We're planning on having one later. We were married Justice of the Peace.

We have a little box... everytime we do you know what we put a dollar in that box towards our dream vacation. So it will take about 3 years but we're heading to England, Scotland, and Ireland.

We will start with a shorter, more-local honeymoon right away with a longer trip to be planned for sometime later ... maybe even next year.

we'll be having a 2 week honeymoon... probly only 10ish days away from home, and then a few days settling in afterwards. We aren't going too far from home, but going to hotpools and eautiful places that he's never been.

We went to Banff for a week. We got married on the Saturday, and left on the Monday morning, which was perfect... it was relaxing to not have to rush away the next morning. Then when we got back, we had a couple days before we both returned to work, which was also nice. We are still working on settling into our house. Where am I supposed to put all this stuff?!

We stayed here http://www.stay-hebrides.com/ in the outer hebrides in Scotland... just idyllic, we spent a week there and saw the Northern lights

Our wedding night was spent in a hotel at Heathrow airport!!! The flight was on Sunday morning.

That would've been magical! I would like (no correction, LOVE) to go to Scotland, the Highlands and see the Northern lights!

Our honeymoon at the moment will be shared with my Dad! My Dad is coming over from Australia for the wedding and is also planning a 2week trip to Italy, he has generously offered to pay for me and my fiance to go to Italy for 2 weeks with him, so that will be our honeymoon. (strange that we'll be with my dad but at least we get to spend time with him before he returns to Australia and I might not see him for another 6 years, like it's been already!)

We will try to get away for a couple of nights on our own though straight after the wedding, maybe to Scotland (if I have my way lol).

My wife and I honeymooned at Morro Bay in California. It's one of her favorite places, so we got a beach house right along the water for a week. Beautiful place and I want to go back sometime to stay at that beach house again. At night durring hightide, the water would hit the rocks about 15 feet below the windows. It was amazing and I loved it.

Our wedding night we stayed at a hotel because it was too far of a drive to make that night after the reception. Didn't really bother us either way cause we were together. I was however, very smart and told no one what hotel it was. I am very happy I made that decision because right after the wedding, we went outside to find my truck had been decorated on the outside AND inside... and on the inside they threw a whole bag of confetti which I still find all around the inside to this day...

Went on a weeklong cruise to the Mexican Riveria. We left the day after the wedding.

We did a little road trip across the state, staying in lovely cozy bed and breakfasts along the way.

Left straight after the wedding. Somewhere local for the first three nights, further afield after that (a campground, stayed in a little cabin for a week). Leaving straight afterwards fitted in well with work - took off the one stretch of time for the wedding preperation, wedding and honeymoon. It's good to have some time straight away to get used to each other. You don't have to spend too much money, all you really need is a bed...

We will be having a week (ish) honey moon, then about a week settling in to home..
