The honeymoon is booked! We decided to go though Christian Travel to plan our honeymoon to make things easier for us! They are wonderful to work with! Our travel agent, Charlotte, told us some stuff about each resort we were interested in-- both the good and the bad! We did some research and talked to some people who had been to a few of the places and we decided that Punta Cana sounded like a dream! It is found in the Dominican Republic and it out of the "hurricane belt" which is nice since we will be traveling during hurricane season! The resort is all inclusive--that means food, drinks of all kinds, activities like snorkeling and horseback riding, are all part of the price we pay. We won't have to carry any extra money unless we want to buy gifts, etc.
We will be leaving Monday after the wedding and staying until the following Monday. Several people told us not to travel the day after the wedding b/c we will be very tired and not up to dealing with the stress of airports. The plan is to stay in Charlotte Sunday night and fly nonstop to the island Monday morning. I don't know all the details yet but we put down a deposit on the trip and the final payment is due in June. I'll keep you posted as we get more details!
