Originally the plan was to get married on a cruise ship and have one of those destination weddings/honeymoon. But now since we learned about K1s needing AP, that's obviously out the window! Most of his fam & many of our friends there were planning to come.

We weren't really bothered by the actual destination....we've done an extensive amt of traveling all over the place, so there was not one place we both could say stood out as to a 'must visit'...We were going to go to Jamaica or something like that. Now we're just going to go to the FL keys (we both love the keys) & get married there, maybe stay a few days, but that's about it. The real honeymoon will just be being together, doesn't matter where we are!

We'll do the big destination wedding with all our friends and families the year later when he can travel.

No honeymoon for us, yet! I refuse to part with our savings for a house just to go on vacation, and now that I'm working and we have the money I don't have the vacation time! sigh. Might go somewhere in September though. Debating between a cruise and just staying local - maybe myrtle beach or kiawah island.
