Wilma and I were chatting about the OO in Branson thread. That's where we honeymooned. I told her I coulda picked up a load of OO if I was an egghead back then. She said I was lucky I didn't.
For my first go around, Toronto & Niagara Falls.

    We went the cheap route and just cruised it up.  Went to Jamaica, Grand Caymen and Cozumel.  We're going to Fiji next summer for our 5 year anniversary.  
    Just a hack that makes some $hitty BBQ....

    We didn't go on one. Took Friday off, got hitched Saturday, back to work on Monday.

    We went to Curacao 3 years ago and that we decided to make that our honeymoon. Unfortunately, pregnancy did not agree with her so she vomited the entire time. I did get to jump off of a cliff, though. Perhaps we'll try again someday.

    I got married in 91 while I was still in college. I finished finals on Thursday and got married on Saturday. I had just finished my Sophomore year of college. 

    We were so poor that we couldn't afford anything much less an expensive honeymoon. We went to Asheville, NC and different parts of NC. We then went over to Gatlinburg, TN. 

    My wife got sick about halfway through so it wasn't the best honeymoon ever, but we have made it almost 23 years now.

    Chattanooga in 1962. Still going strong so it must have worked for us, although we were dirt poor.

    Met SWMBO at the Banff Springs Hotel when we were both working there. Moved back to Winnipeg with her for my career. We went back for our honeymoon 2 years later. We still knew a bunch of people in different departments. We stayed in the Honeymoon suite which was a two floor room and had all the luxury services of a king and queen.

    I got married 21 days after my eighteenth bday . I literally didn't have a dime to my name. We got married at the courthouse and her mom paid for us to go to Gatlinburg, TN. That was almost 21 years ago and she is still hanging with me.

    If I took my bride on a honeymoon and she barfed the whole time, I would jump off a cliff too!  Bummer! :((

    That's kinda what we did.  Wife didn't want to be the center of attention at an over-priced affair, so we drove to a Chapel in Tahoe.  Got married, drove back home, and I worked on a college paper that night.

    And I don't remember which vacation we called our honeymoon, it was either the cruise to Alaska, or the trip to Hawaii to watch the Total Eclipse of the sun.
