Oh readers…guess what? WE’VE BOOKED OUR HONEYMOON!!!!
After the wedding, Jordan and I will be jetting off to … wait for it … JAMAICA!
With the help of a travel agent (who is also a family friend), we booked a 6 night getaway to Ocho Rios, Jamaica, where we will relax on the beach, dine at wonderfully yummy restaurants and enjoy our first few days as a married couple!
We’ll be staying at Breezes Rio Bueno in Ocho Rios; we’re so excited! While we weren’t sure for quite some time whether or not we would be able to take an extended honeymoon, we feel so blessed to have the opportunity to get away!
Where are you headed on your honeymoon!

Our Wedding: Bliss Honeymoons!
Written by Sara on February 18, 2010 – 9:00 am -
From the moment J and I first discussed getting married, we both knew that we wanted a honeymoon where we could A) do things we’ve never done before, and B) relax, relax, relax.
However, since neither J nor I have ever planned such an important trip before, we’ve talked on and off about calling a travel agent to utilize their expertise and services in determining where exactly we should go on our honeymoon.
Enter Dana at The Broke-Ass Bride, who recently posted about one of her blog sponsors, Bliss Honeymoons & Destination Weddings. You could say that the clouds parted and angels could be heard singing in the distance, but that would be a little over the top, now wouldn’t it? :) Bliss Honeymoons specializes in helping couples determine what exactly they are looking for in a honeymoon, whether it’s relaxation, adventure, romance or a little bit of all three.
After I read Dana’s post, I immediately emailed J, and we quickly agreed to contact the wonderful travel agents at Bliss to help us plan our honeymoon. One of Bliss’s agents, Laura, contacted us promptly to set up a phone call (since there isn’t a Bliss office in our area) to talk about our ideal honeymoon and our budget.
The best part about Bliss Honeymoons? Because Bliss is a fully licensed travel agency, they are paid by the hotels. This means that couples just like you and me get all the benefits of working with an experienced travel consultant at no extra cost!
I’ll keep you informed as we talk with Laura about our honeymoon – we’re so excited to get started on this process!
