Having To Wait For Honeymoon Trip

My FH and I have decided to go to St. Lucia for our honeymoon.

My FH and I have decided to go to St. Lucia for our honeymoon. We're getting married August next year but unfortunately, St. Lucia has pretty bad weather during that time so we looked into when it would be considered perfect to go. We've decided that we will go in February 2021. That's a whole 6 MONTHS!! It's been booked and I'm sure it'll be worth the wait!

FH was kind of down about not going anywhere or doing anything after the wedding. He really loves the idea so I started doing some research to look into doing something small. Well, that didn't take long because I came across Disneyland! We will have a little 2 day minimoon/celebration (whatever you want to call it) to attend each park. I'm hoping to book that by the end of the month!

Is anyone else having to wait to go on their honeymoon due to weather, finances, etc? Is there anything else you will be doing/anywhere else you will be going until you go on your honeymoon trip?

    We are also postponing our honeymoon due to finances, but we live in florida, so we might end up taking a couple days and going to universal or Disney right after the wedding, maybe invite a few of our out of town guests who decide to linger.

    Yes! We live in Las Vegas but we're getting married in CA not too far from Disneyland so we're planning a trip there as well right after and if anyone would like to join, they can. We'll be staying there for a couple days to get the full Disney experience on both sides of the park lol

    That's exactly what we will be doing! If you haven't already, you could totally check out Sandals Resorts. They are all inclusive and VERY tropical lol. Good luck in your search!

    Yeah we are going to the poconos as our minimoon (I call it that too!). A two-night stay. The plan is to hopefully make it to Japan for the honeymoon In the spring of 2020.

    Were doing something similar! A small trip to somewhere nearby right after the wedding and a big trip next spring, about 6 months later! At first I was kinda down about it because I wanted to take our honeymoon right away, but financially it wasn’t in the cards for us. Now I’m glad we’re splitting it up because we have something fun to look forward to!

    Japan is AMAZING! I was stationed there for 4 years and I just wish I had done more while I was out there but I definitely plan on going back. What part of Japan are you looking into?

    Yea. Same for us! Ours will also be a 6 month wait. It will definitely be worth the wait. The extra time makes saving easier and give the opportunity to do more while out wherever go. A blessing in disguise for sure.

    Definitely a good reason to wait. Is that when you graduate?

    I see that Puerto Rico is a really popular place to get married and have a honeymoon. How long will you be out there?

    Our wait won't be too long, only a few weeks. FH works in a plant and they shut down in the summer around late June, early July so we'll be honeymooning that week. Our date is June 13. As for doing something right away, the plan is to "disappear" and unplug for a day or 2 (no calls, texts, answering emails, or working), just enjoying the 2 of us with no distractions.
