HONEYMOON!!!!!!

A Note to ALL Brides-To-Be:

ATTEND EVERY BRIDAL SHOW YOU CAN!

As my regular readers know, I have won many prizes. I have won prizes from all different ranges...Anywhere from $500 to just tiny bouquets.

However, I won my favorite prize yet at the Bridal Show I went to yesterday!


I won a FREEEEEEE 3 Day Honeymoon to Riviera Maya, Mexico!!

Without even knowing, my name had been going into a big drawing from attending so many other shows and this show had the big drawing accumulated from all of the others...And I was SOOO CLOSE to not attending the show yesterday! What a great surprise!! Obviously I am so glad that I went! :) Hehe

I know Jon and I wanted to go to Hawaii...But we hadn't booked it yet, and this is FREE!!!!

We always can still go to Hawaii for our Honeymoon and save this Mexico trip for our One Year Anniversary...But we probably won't do that. Hehe
I mean I am a little afraid that if we don't go to Hawaii now we probably never will...But we are paying for the wedding, the honeymoon, and a new house all by ourselves in the next few months...So I'll take something free when possible. :)

The travel agent is supposed to contact me today with further details. However from the packet they gave me about it yesterday, I am sooooo uber excited!
The hotel we won to stay at is really expensive and all inclusive and looks like absolute paradise!

All we need to do is pay for the airfare...And any days we want to stay there after the free 3 days are up.

And what made it really great was that my Mother, my Future Mother-In-Law, my Grandmother, & my Great Aunt were all there with me to share in the excitement when I won!


I am so totally walking on Cloud 9 right now!


So in conclusion, Brides-To-Be, do NOT let anyone talk you out of going to as many Bridal Shows as you want to go to!

Just because I now have all of my vendors booked, doesn't mean I still can't go to Bridal Shows just to try to win prizes! I don't think it is greedy. It's not like I win at EVERY show. :)

But yes, I would say this is my most favorite prize thus far! :)

I will post pictures of the hotel and everything when I get more information from the travel agent. :)


I think we have a lot of options to chose from. We can just pay for additional days to add to the free 3 days...Or we can just take the 3 days in Riviera Maya and then go to Cancun or Hawaii on a cruise or on land...I don't know what to do...So many options!! Most likely we will probably just extend the Riviera Maya trip...Because from the photographs I have seen online so far, once we are there we will probably never want to leave!
Jon and I have never been out of the US...So any trip we go on will probably feel like Heaven to us. :)

PS Yesterday was EXACTLY 6 Months until the wedding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So now we are at 180 days away!

Just 5 Months, 3 Weeks, & 6 Days to go! :)

  3. Thanks everyone! :)

    I have had a passport for years (just never used it before!) But Jon still needs to get his.
