It is getting increasingly depressing to have everybody at work suddenly start to become interested in where we are going on our honeymoon.
Yes, I know that is a typical question that gets asked at this time in the wedding planning process, and yes, I know that we should have had something booked by now, but unfortunately we dont. And we dont know if it's going to be in our cards to be able to take one.
Now dont get me wrong, I know that not everyone takes a honeymoon. And that not everyone takes one right away. Which would have been sad, but deal-able if we had figured that out early on in the planning. But the truth is, we had one booked. We had the deposit down on an incredible cruise...and then of course, things happen, other things are more than anticipated, and we had to move in the middle of planning, only a few months after moving here in the first place. Things we hadnt counted on, things that blew the honeymoon budget. So sadly, the cruise was cancelled, the deposit was then used to pay for moving expenses and other things, and now we just dont know if it's in the cards.
I know this is one of those ranting/self-sadness posts, but as much fun as this wedding planning has been and as excited as I am to be marrying the guy of my dreams, it sucks to have to tell people at work about not booking anything yet, or maybe waiting to take it. Yes, I know that a trip isnt what the wedding is about. I know that in many years when we look back on it, it wont be the end of the world. I know that we will have time to have many, many trips later on in life- after all, we'll be married forever, we were just looking forward to that break from how stressful everything in life has been lately and looking forward to having our first actual vacation together.
But I know that it's not the end of the world. We just have to keep telling ourselves that we are going to have a great wedding with our family and friends, we are going to be married for crying out loud, and that we love each other regardless of any sort of trip.
There. I'm sorry for that bout of venting-ness. Though to my credit, there have been very few of these in the wedding planning process. I promise to try to have no more. :)

Me
- Cass
- I'm a newlywed with a love for the little things in life- sipping a cappuccino at a local coffee shop in the sunshine, art that seems to make no sense, the smile my husband gets sometimes when I catch him watching me, the cool breeze in the fall when the leaves are changing, my dog when she has somehow manages to wedge herself under my hand and I find myself petting her unknowingly, the smell of freshly cut grass, the sounds of the ocean, taking photos of instances you can never get back. I feel too much about things but may not always say it. I adore my mother. You'll find I take a lot of pictures. La vita รจ bella.
