Wedding Anniversary Invitations

I’ve been sharing some archived, wedding related Q&A that I’ve accumulated. I’ve been getting great feedback, so we’ll continue on with part 3 of this thread….

You’re not the only one who can’t fathom this. We make enough money to go on a
"dream honeymoon" but probably won’t. We’ve decided the best place for our
money right now is a k, savings towards a house and paying of student loans.

Maybe it’s a matter of age and maturity? Jim will be this summer and I will
be . I also have an year old daughter so maybe that has something to do
with it. We plan on taking a dream vacation, but it will probably happen after
we buy a house and when we’re sitting on a huge bank account.

I’m having to pay off student loans right now and I can’t imagine going into
debt for a vacation or something I don’t *need*. I have a car loan and the
student loans and don’t want anymore debt. I guess I’m a bit frugal in that
sense.

I wonder if years from now when they are still paying off wedding/honeymoon
debt if they will think it was *really* worth it.

For a few posts, I’ve been sharing some archived, wedding related Q&A that I’ve accumulated. I’ve been getting great feedback, so we’ll continue on….

I’ve spent all afternoon yesterday and today helping my BIL and FSIL plan
their honeymoon this August, since I’m already in Florida and can look things
up for them.  (They are taking out a *huge* loan to do this, btw, and I won’t
even go into my personal feelings about that…see question below…)

It looks like they’ve settled on weeks at Disney World (poor things!) — one
of those nights being spent in the Grand Floridian’s honeymoon suite,
additional nights in a Grand Floridian garden room, and another week at the
Caribbean Beach resort.  After that, they’ll be coming to stay with us in
Tampa Bay for more days.  Oh yeah, I’ve helped them purchase WDW annual
passes (cheaper than package pass rates) and airfare to and from FL, too.  
Think I should charge commission?  (The hotel and park passes alone were
almost $!)

All of this vacation planning on their behalf has left me daydreaming about a
fancy honeymoon of our own, and we already took ours years ago this summer!  
(Our honeymoon was nowhere near as "posh", however.  Todd and I had a
-day/-night honeymoon — paid for with cash that we already had on hand.  We
spent night in a nice honeymoon suite in New Orleans where we were married,
and nights in a Pensacola Holiday Inn Express.)

My husband makes almost double what the B&G make combined (even though it’s
more expensive to live in FL than in OK) — but we’ve never felt like we could
justify the expense of the Grand Floridian for one night during our several
mini-vactions to WDW…much less SIX…

My BIL is and my FSIL is .  This leaves my husband and I with an
interesting question…  Is it the norm for people to take such extravagant
honeymoons (especially when they’re borrowing the money from a bank to do so
and haven’t even completed college)?

Don’t get me wrong — I’d love to let loose at Disney like that — but I just
can’t fathom paying for the vacation for years afterwards.  (That’s not
a judgement — just my personal opinion.)  Just curious as to how "important"
that dream honeymoon really is to most brides and grooms…and if you’re
going to take it, regardless of expense…

For the next few posts, I’m going to share some archived, wedding related Q&A that I’ve accumulated. It may be just a bit off the specific topic of this blog, but I think you’ll get some great information from it anyway.

That seems so silly to spend borrowed money in that way. I am having a
hard enough time dealing with my student loans that was taken out solely
for an education, I couldn’t imagine having to pay for years for
weeks of luxury. Our day honeymoon is ending up being part of a
conference my FH has to attend for his research, so bringing me alone
isn’t that much more (and it’s money we already had saved up
specifically for this reason).

Your BIL and FSIL will have a rude awakening after finishing school and
starting out with a huge debt. Maybe it’s really the best lesson for
them though. Count your blessings that you have the sense to know what
your limitations are and not to live in debt the rest of your life!

I’m typing away on a more in depth post for a few days!

Good morning everyone and Happy Saturday!

This has been a wild few days and I am a little tardy on some of my miscellaneous tasks, like posting to my brand new blog. I’m going to do my best to make up for this in the next few days, so keep checking back.

Meanwhile, I was driving through san jose this week -don’t ask me why- and I got into a conversation with a woman working at a convenience store. I shared that I had started
my new blog and that I was planning to be exploring into the subject of wedding anniversary invitations. She has a sister that is getting married later this summer and said that they were looking for information for wedding anniversary invitations in her town.

Now, san jose is a long way from my home - exactly 375 miles -I checked the odometer- and I don’t have many friends in the bridal business there. I had to admit that I didn’t have a good source
for her, but I thought it would be a good idea to use the power of the internet to try and help her out.

So, I’m throwing this question out to my new readers:

If you live in, or near san jose, can you provide a good referral for wedding anniversary invitations? If so, please shoot me a quick
email at Customerservice@wedding anniversary invitations, so I can pass this along to my friend.

Thank you and I hope you all enjoys the rest of their Saturday!

Welcome everyone!

This is the initial post on my new blog about wedding anniversary invitations.
Even though I’ve been in this industry for many years, I’m very new at this blogging thing.

I am very committed to the topic of weddings in general and wedding anniversary invitations in particular. Over the coming several posts I plan to
share my knowledge and insight about wedding anniversary invitations and quite a few associated topics.

I hope you share this journey. I welcome your feedback and your comments,
and know that your involvement will make this much more enjoyable.

I hope you enjoy this!
