    We are getting married on Sunday 19th June 2011, but sadly as my fiance is a student nurse it will be in the middle of his course and we have to delay our honeymoon til the beginning of August when he has 2 weeks off :-( I am really disappointed but trying not to make a big deal of it as he already feels really bad. Anyone else having to delay their honeymoon?? Also, just realised my passport expires in March 2011, so will have to send off for a new one in my new name :-)

    we might go on a minimoon if h2b can get week after off for a few days but probably have a familymoon a year later or a honeymoon in a couple of years. Which i would like as we plan on having our first planned baby then lol. We already have 2, very much not planned but wouldnt change then for the world. :)

    We're having a delayed one a) due to money - hoping to pay for it with any prezzie money we get (if we get any) and also due to family being over from Canada and Australia we feel it would be rude to marry and run lol xxxx

    possibly, if we go to florida which is the plan at the moment then we will probably delay the honeymoon till november to avoid hurricane season and school holidays x

    yeah we are going a month after the wedding as h2b has cant be off work during pay/budget week which comes in to the 2 weeks after our wedding so we have to wait until after that pfffffft but guess it will give me time to shop and pack for honeymoon goodies!!!

    We are delaying ours for a few weeks to see what we can afford at the time and to find a nice late deal or weekend break and also so that my mum is on school holidays and can look after the baby if we decide to go abroad. x

    I wanted to delay ours so we could go to Thailand as the weather there in Sept is pretty pants. The h2b wants to go straight away so we have decided to go to Italy instead and have Thailand as a separate holiday. You could always book a holiday home in the lakes or somewhere nice for the weekend after and then go away in the August? That way it feels like you are having a break and time together after the wedding and it doesn't interfere with study etc.

    We're kind of having a delayed honeymoon. We are having a 'mini-moon' just after the wedding (a few days in Italy) & then (hopefully!!) going to New Zeland the year after, since h2b has always dreamed of going there! x x x

    We're getting married in September and having a mini-moon :). We have a caravan in Pwhelli so we're staying there for the week and then we are having our honeymoon the year after (2012). Going on a cruise and then on to New York. We've done it that way because we wanted our dream honeymoon so it made sense to save for it once the wedding was paid for xx

    We'll already be away so we're staying on in Spain after the wedding with the guests who are staying on after the wedding and spending time with the in-laws. Then we're hoping to have our honeymoon sometime between the wedding and October when I go back to uni.

    We were going to go to Thailand after our wedding but realised we couldn't save up for it in time so we are going the year after for 10 days of sun, sea, scary moped riding, cocktail drinking and the other activity, lol. We are asking anyone who wants to get us a gift to buy us holiday vouchers so we may get lucky and be able to go sooner than the year after but we don't mind, it is another thing to look forward to and we will feel like newlyweds all over again! x

    we are also having a delayed one. 1, as we might not have the cash to pay for it and 2, the weather where we are going will be much better :0)
    Dont be too disappointed Kat, it means you have something else wedding related to look forward too! AND you can get your passport etc changed in time for your honeymoon in your new name. xxxx

    Thanks Karlie, and to everyone else who has commented on this thread. Although it would have been perfect to go on our honeymoon straight after the marriage, you're right, it will give us something to look forward to in august. I was surprised at how many others are also having a delayed honeymoon for one reason or another, I don't feel so downhearted about it now - thank you :-) Re: passport, I will send off for it before we are married so I get it back in my new name with plenty of time before we go away! My friend checked it out for me on the website and I think I can send off for it 3 months before we marry.

    Glad you are feeling better about it, it is amazing how many of us are in the same boat, but I liked the thought that we could be honeymooners a year after we got married, inject a bit of romance back if any was lost, lol. x

    So many peeps have different outlooks, we all have our own reasons why we chose these things and if we want the best and it means waiting then so be it... I can cope and deal with that.
    My only trouble is we are getting wed 9th October and want to go to a place where hurricane season, so we wait until late November through to April... However we have promised my step son that we would take him on holiday for Xmas next year.... gggrrrr I'm guessing it will fall into place itself.
