Our Honeymoon: Whitehouse, Jamaica

Our honeymoon was great, but aren't they all? Great room, nicest pools, ocean walks every morning, snorkeling in the afternoon, and of course the little umbrella drinks (who doesn't love those?). The best part was after all of the hustle and bustle of our wedding, I got to spend time with my new hubby and it was just us! That was the best part. Now, Mr. W may put that right up there with the food, which I have to agree was the second best (5 star restaurants, sign me up!).

We went to Whitehouse, Jamaica. It was beautiful! The resort was all-inclusive so we were able to eat as much as we wanted, drink as much as we wanted, and not pay for a thing! Not to mentioned Sandals is a couples only resort so it was nice to meet other married couples, one of which we became great friends with. I would highly recommend this resort to anyone out there looking for a getaway. The staff was helpful, the drinks were cold, and the view was amazing! Oh, and the food, the food was absolutely fabulous!

I don't think I can count using all my fingers and toes (hubby's included,) how many times I have seen on Facebook, "Hey everyone, what is a good place to go for a honeymoon? Suggestions are appreciated!" Either all my friends are getting married... or all my friends are getting married! ;) Of course there are always the ones that respond right away and tell you every detail, and then there are people like me who like to keep their secret spot hidden!

Ok, it's not so secret but our honeymoon was special and amazing; we have vowed to go back on major anniversaries, along with taking at least one destination trip a year to have new adventures together. (This year is the Dominican Republic!) This may seem like a radical way for newlyweds to spend their hard earned dough, but we would much rather spend our money on trips and experiences that we can to do together, rather on clothing, bags, and jewelry. An article from the Huffington Post proves that experiences make you happier than stuff, and I can't agree more!

Here's how much fun we had:
