Honeymoon booked!!! sooooo excited

Postby ms-to-mrs » Tue Oct 18, 2011 4:45 pm

As the title says we booked our honeymoon today. :bounce :bounce :bounce :bounce :bounce :bounce :bounce :bounce :bounce :bounce :bounce :bounce :bounce :bounce :bounce

I have butterflies in my stomach I'm so excited. Everything just seems to be coming together. It's a bit surreal. We're heading to orlando for a wk, on a cruise and then a few days in fort lauderdale before flying home. We really can't afford it and I know we'll be penniless for a while after but we figured we probably wouldn't get another chance for a holiday like this until our kids are grown. We want to start a family ASAP :babydust

I'm just so excited I had to share. I just can't believe i'm getting married and going on honeymoon with my wonderful H2B. :D

Wow Bora Bora looks amazing. I'd never make a flight that long though. I'm nervous enough thinking about the ten hrs it will take us to get to Orlando.

Oh really ms-to-mrs?!

Not a good flyer? Poor you, one of my friends is like that, so nervous every time he flies and he has to fly a lot with work! You'll be so excited hopefully that'll beat the nerves :clapper

Bora Bora is 8 and a half hours dfrom LA and LA is about 10 hrs from london so our flights will be the same length as yours but just in 2 legs!
Drink plenty of champagne and you'll be grand :knockback

Well done, it's a great feeling when everything comes together. I felt the same when we booked ourselves, it was expensive but thought what the hell it's a once in a lifetime holiday. Enjoy

:bounce :bounce How exciting :bounce We aren't goin on a HM straight away as there will be quite alot of family flying into ireland for the wedding, who'll be around for awhile so can't be rushing straight off :( but we will prob take 3-5 day trip somewhere in europe and then look (and save) towards a proper honeymoon a little down the line.

Going to California and Bora Bora.


Bora Bora sounds & looks lovely flomeo and is actually on our list of places to go (in general) and consider for a HM destination (can i ask did you source through an agent or book it yourself online? - as long as you don't think this is being cheeky :oops: ) but we have a family wedding in Australia probably coming up in 2013 so think we will be going to that and incorporate it into our HM, although I've been there a couple of times (love the place :lol: ) my B2B has never been down under and would like to experience it and as I said we get my cousins wedding in and a bit of family reunion aswell :D

Enjoy ms-to-mrs am sure it will be fantastic :bounce

Hi BluefishJD,

We went with an american travel agent in the end and booked 8 nights between Moorea and Bora Bora with them. They throw in more in the packages, we normally book all ourselves (I can't bear package holidays) but an agent seems to be the way to go for BB, we'll book the flights to Cali ourselves in the Jan sales hopefully!
You can fly there from Auckland too (its actually way closer to NZ than it is to the US) but we've been to NZ a few times before so doing the California route. New Zealand is my favourite place I've ever been- incorporate that in your HM for sure! Much prefer it to Oz, I'd move there in the morning!
Very excited about Bora Bora now and watched Couples Retreat yesterday, we're staying at the St Regis where that movie was filmed!
