 I was just wondering if you girls are having a honeymoon after your wedding and if so where are you going to go? We are still deciding at the moment, the wedding is costing us a small fortune as it is and the fact that we have a four year old son means that it wouldn't be a honey moon as such but a 2/3week family holiday to Florida so that our son could enjoy all the attractions like Disney and Sea world etc..We are looking at it that we have many years ahead of us where we will have the opportunity to get away just the two of us...So I just wondered what you were all doing xxx

 We went to Gran Canaria on the Saturday after our Thursday wedding. It was my first holiday without my children who are 17 and 14 but they encouraged me to have a holiday without them and they had friends and relatives looking out for them. It was weird but also wonderful for me and hubby to have a week alone

 I cant :( me and my h2b both work in the same place and so the manager cant afford to have us both off at the same time for a fortnight because i want the week off before the wedding. We r gonna have a belated honeymoon tho. Save up some money and go on a more amazing one as we will be broke after the wedding. xx

 We're going to Vienna for 11 nights. Our wedding's on a Saturday so we're leaving on the Monday and coming back the following Friday. Then we've still got a couple of days to relax before going back to work.

 as were getting married in March and all our funds are being used up on that, we've asked for Thomas Cook vouchers for gifts!
Also with a few months saving were hoping to go away later in the year! Somewhere HOT and SUNNY emoticon

 My parents are giving us a honeymoon as our wedding present. We were told we could choose anywhere so we're off to Barcelona for a week or 2. I've been twice before and love it and really wanted to show my partner the sights, so when it was offered as a gift we snapped it up emoticon We'd wouldn't be able to afford it ourselves for a year or two otherwise.

 We always said we wanted Japan, but obviously that's massively expensive! We're going to take it slowly, therefore. We'll go away for four nights in Center Parcs after the wedding, just the two of us, and then give it a yer or so to save up for Japan and go then.

 We're hoping to get away, would love to go to mexico. But we're going to leave it last minute and see what we can get mainly because we're scared of getting in to debt. Everything seems to be costing more than we thought. if we dont manage to get away soon after the wedding we'll just wait a little while until we can afford something. xx

 We are having 2 honeymoon's, one just the 2 of us and the other with our 2 children, my parents are amazing and will be having the children. Think our honeymoon will either be the Maldives or the Seychells emoticon
Not too sure when exactly as H2B works off shore and will be starting a new contract just after the wedding, so once he a definate date, we can get on and book!! So it will either be before he starts his job or his 1st trip home emoticon

 We're getting married on the Saturday and then on the Sunday we are jetting off to the Maldives for two weeks. We wouldn't have been able to afford it but h2b won a competition where the prize was £5000 of holiday vouchers emoticon so we thought why not? Going straight after the wedding as I want to finish work on the Wednesday and return on the Wednesday three weeks later and I have limited holidays (taking 14 days in total for the wedding/honeymoon). @emmalouise, @quoth_the_raven Egypt rocks - have been twice and going back soon x
