Wedding Diaries: Honeymoon

So when we planned our wedding date, we thought we were planning it right in the middle of a two week break from school for Chuck. Unfortunately once we got the school schedule, we found out there's actually only a ONE week break- luckily for us it's the week leading up to our wedding. But, we were kind of bummed when we figured out that we will be getting married on Friday and back to school and work on Monday. And bummed that we would not have any time for a honeymoon, at least not immediately anyway.

Well, a few weeks ago we realized that Labor Day weekend is the weekend following our wedding, so I asked Chuck if we could just do a short getaway that weekend and then do a bigger delayed honeymoon later on in the next year or two. He liked the idea, so we started looking at Bed & Breakfasts in New England, within a couple hours driving distance from Boston and close to the beach. After we looked at pictures and read reviews, we decided on one that's located on the south coast of Maine.

Maine!!!

We'll be staying all of Labor Day weekend at the Maine Stay Inn & Cottages in Kennebunkport, Maine. The Inn is located right on a river and a little less than 2 miles from the ocean.

Here is the Inn.

We are staying in one of the "Contemporary" Cottages because we like the idea of a B&B but we don't like Victorian era furniture or crazy, floral wallpaper.

We've never stayed at a Bed & Breakfast before and we've also never been to Maine. So I am extremely excited about this mini, slightly delayed honeymoon. Lobster, lighthouses and stalking the Bush family summer home. It's going to be great.
