Good morning! It’s so great to be home and getting back into a normal routine…
I am happy to report that the wedding went off without any major hitches (the downpour stopped just in time for photos and our outdoor ceremony) and the honeymoon was a fantastic adventure. John and I enjoyed a blissful week of delicious island food, plenty of fruity beverages beach- and pool-side and even went on a zip line excursion up in the tropical mountains. I wish I could tell you every single detail, but it would take several posts and I always think that photos speak louder than words…So I’m going to cut myself a tiny break this morning as I get back into the swing of things at work and share some of my favorite photos from our honeymoon (in no particular order). Enjoy!
For those of you who are curious about the hotel, we stayed at the Excellence Punta Cana resort in the Dominican Republic. We L-O-V-E-D it and would definitely go back if given the opportunity. We booked through VIP and were treated like king and queen. The staff was super friendly, the room was gorgeous and the grounds were very well maintained and spread out enough so that you didn’t feel trapped. We both felt very safe on the plantation too. The only complaint we had was the noise through the door – It was a bit loud, but we had a ground floor room so we heard everyone walking by. If we could do it again, I think I’d ask for one of the upper level rooms for a little more peace and quiet. We highly recommend checking it out and have already discussed going back for our ten year anniversary…
P.S. A HUGE “Thank you!” to my fabulous guest bloggers last week, Amanda, Lisa and Jessi. Knowing they had things covered here on DG-DIY helped me to relax completely while away. If you missed their posts, check them out here, here and here.
