Sun...Sand...or Rain?

So even though I promised I wouldn't (sorry Dave!!) I immediately wanted to start planning a wedding. I have known for a long time that I haven't wanted to have a big wedding. I'm not sure exactly when the moment hit that having a whole day oriented around things being perfect, perfect hair, perfect flowers, perfect dress, perfect food, would be too much for me handle. Don't get me wrong, I love going to weddings and seeing how others put together large, beautiful events with all of their friends and family around, but I would be a nervous wreck. I would worry for the entire day about whether things were going well. 


After deciding that I didn't want to have a big wedding, it was a pretty easy decision to plan a destination wedding instead, with only our closest friends and family in attendance. 


We pooled our ideas and our top three locations included: 

Hawaii

Las Vegas

Ireland  

And, I'm sure it will come as no surprise that we chose IRELAND! This blog will follow, what I'm sure will be the ups and downs of planning our perfect wedding trip!
