Honeymoon Poll

Because some of the posts I've seen have me curious/confused...
[Poll]

Re: Honeymoon Poll

  • I thought there was the one "honeymoon" and then the rest were vacations.

  • We took our honeymoon, and are hoping to take a vacation for our first anniversary! We're thinking Quebec City.

  • I took a honeymoon, our next trip is a vacation. I feel like if its taken very soon after the wedding, say within a month or so its a honeymoon, anything after thats a vacation.

    The definition states newlyweds take honeymoons & newlywed is defined as a person recently married so I guess a honeymoon is based on how you view recently married.

  • you get one wedding. then it's called a vow renewal.

    you get one honeymoon. then it's called a vacation. 

  • Our wedding and honeymoon were the same, since we had a destination wedding, next trip is Vegas for our 1 year anniversary! Then no more vacations for awhile, we have big plans to go to Bora Bora for our 5 year and will need to save save save for that one!

  • Now I want to go read and see where the confusion is.  Britt- help me out and just flame in FFW ;)

     I had a HM.  Now I want a vacation. 

     

    ETA:  Never mind, got it.  I tend to skip posts if I don't think I'll have anything to say.

  • I checked mini-moon but we really didn't even have that. I went to VA for about 9 days to get ready for the wedding and visit with family and H flew in Thursday night and left Sunday. So our actual HM is going to be in August when he's done with summer school.
  • i voted "2nd honeymoon" because H and i had to compromise on the honeymoon. i wanted a beach where i could plotz, he thought touristing in england and ireland was a good idea 2 days after the weddign. NOT. but i couldn't deprive him of Europe when he never wants to take a vacation...so we compromised and did the DR for 4 days and England/Ireland will be 2 weeks. both shorter than if they were the "only" honeymoon. thank goodness we are staying with friends in England as otherwise 2 trips would really break the bank.
  • We had a honeymoon, now I want a vacation bc all of these posts are making me so jealous. I agree, anything after the HM is called a vacation.

  • We're leaving on the HM on the 18th after that it's vacation except for our anniversary, we're calling it our 1 year which we have some ideas but we have to see as we get closer. After the HM our next vacation will be Minnesota =)

  • we never took a honeymoon. 

    but our next trip will be so far removed from the wedding (and probably not just us two) that it will fail to be a honeymoon.

  • We are going on our honeymoon at the end of this month and I do consider it our honeymoon. It worked out better financially and with H's schedule to wait a month. We stayed at a super nice local hotel the wedding weekend which I don't consider to really be a mini moon. 

     

    I consider it our honeymoon because it is a vacation taken shortly after our wedding that was planned along with our wedding to celebrate our wedding. It is not a normal vacation for us as we would not be going on a cruise (or anywhere) this summer if it weren't for us getting married.  

     After that, it will be vacations. 

  • I called our trip right after the wedding our "mini-moon" but when people asked I always said we are just going to take a bigger trip later in the year.  Not really referring to it as a honeymoon.  Either way it's still a vacation.
  • We leave on our honeymoon on the 24th.  We couldn't go on one immediately after because of my class schedule.  Any trip we take after that will be called a vacation.
  • We took our honeymoon, we will probably take a vacation for our first year anniversary.

  • We took our honeymoon, I don't know why we would ever call our next vacation a second honeymoon, that is kinda wierd. Maybe in like 10 years, we can call a vacay our second honeymoon for fun, but not anytime soon
