He says he was “suckered in” but I call it “fairness”.
Briefing:
I had this whole perception that after the wedding, couples change clothes and board a flight for a journey to their honeymoon location; then I started planning for my own wedding. Within weeks of planning, I knew there was no way we would do that. All I thought about was resting after the wedding and the following day we would go to our honeymoon location.
Weeks into months: This wedding shindig was a lot more expensive than we thought. I was calculating based on my sisters wedding, which took place about 6 years ago. I should have known better, not only did policies and regulations change but the prices are A LOT HEFTIER; I mean by the thousands. At this point, I couldn’t believe that I was actually suggesting for us to wait on our honeymoon. All I knew, was that I did not want to cut myself short. If we were going to do it, then we were going to do it right! So we decided we would wait four months after the wedding to go to our honeymoon.
Closer to the wedding months: Given how much work was involved planning, we thought we needed to get away for a few days after the wedding to relax. In comes the MINI-MOON!! Yes, I convinced him to go on a mini-moon after the wedding. What seemed like a small plan started growing and growing! After all decisions were made, he realized:
“Wait a minute! I just got suckered into TWO honey-moons!!”
My response: No babes, this is the least you can do after all the work I have put in to this wedding J!!
Suckered in?!! maybe yes but it’s still an awesome idea.
Mini-Moon location decision coming soon!
