Show Us Your Wedding Reception & Honeymoon

Oh I love this wedding stuff! I wish we could split it up and do more weeks of it!

BTW Did you see my ticker? Lost 3 lbs this week! Woo-Hoo! So happy and the best part was I don't feel like I struggled really. I hope it all stays this good :)

OK so our reception!

Was in a big ( but not quite big enough) tent. It was beautiful and really warm in there so we removed the walls for a great breeze and it was perfect!

Sweetheart Table

Our Tables

My favorite decor was the hanging candles, they were so beautiful and just looked amazing once it got dark.

First Dance

Beautiful cake! It was exactly how I pictured!


We honeymooned on a Tahitian cruise. The last day of the cruise was so sad I could have easily done another week there it was amazing!

Check out this story. Our cruise was suppose to leave on the X of August well we got a phone call from our travel agent and said " Well unfortunatley they overbooked. But if you will leave 7 days later they will give you half price." I didn't get this message for maybe 4 or 5 days by the time I did we had the offer for a FREE CRUISE ( apparently they were desperate!) So we left 7 days later than planned on a free honeymoon! We still had to pay for the plane tickets to fly to Tahiti but we saved around $5000+ for the cruise and because we saved we were able to do every excursion we wanted and didn't have to worry so much about the financial part of it! That was a great wedding present from Prin.cess Cruise Lines!









This was on an awesome little jeep tour we went on the water was FREEZING!

On the cruise boat :)



The best thing we did! We did a tour for 10 and we were the only 2 that showed up so we literally had a private boat ride tour around Bora Bora and he dropped us off on a small island we had all to ourself for part of the day! It was amazing!

Day of snorkeling

The Tahititan Dancers

Beautiful handmade lei's
