Any suggestions on a “mini moon” in July? We are located in north east and looking to go and relax at the beach or something similar. We are going to wait to go on honeymoon in the fall or maybe even next spring.

I just went on vacation to the Azores, Portugal, a volcanic island chain 4-5hrs away from Boston. There is so much beautiful nature there, natural hot springs, beaches, hiking, etc. In July, it would be absolutely gorgeous and better weather!

SIL just did a mini moon in punta cana, also in the north east. picked a nice resort for like 4 nights and enjoyed it a lot

My boyfriend and I just booked a trip to Majorca! It’s an island off the coast of spain. Very beautiful and romantic

Puerto Rico!

So my fiancé and I are having a microwedding in Rocky Mountain National Park next year, and we’re working with an elopement planner.
She sent over a sample ceremony (intro, sweet poems + passages to be read, and example vows), and we read through it last night. I was reading it out loud while my fiancé made dinner, and it just hit me that this is really happening. I’m just really happy that I found someone who is willing to take a vow to spend his life with me and I’m so excited for that day :)
