Honeymoon Question

I'm starting to plan some things for the honeymoon. Specifically with my mom cuz of the timeshare she's giving us. We are pretty much just looking at the weeks fh and I could go. The wedding is May 29 so we have Memorial Day off, we are gonna take an extra day or two and just do a mini vaca for relaxation (maybe out east or Newport, RI).

SO the honeymoon we'll be taking either June or July.

If we were to go in June (which is my preference) it would be June 26 to like July 8th or 9th. My friend is getting married on LI on July 11th even though she hasn't set the date yet. I'm the MOH in her wedding so I don't know if that would be cutting it too close (coming back on the 8th or 9th and then having the wedding on the 11th). My mom thinks we should wait til after her wedding but I don't want to. My friend has been somewhat getting on my nerves and I don't want to have to plan around HER schedule. But I don't want to be a b*tch either about it all. I'd rather have a month between the wedding and HM and not 2 months, you know?

What do u think I should do? I know it's early to be thinking about all this but it's been bothering me.

I agree with your mom (sorry) some what. Is it possible to leave June 24th and stay till the 6th so that way you give yourself 5 days between the HM and the wedding. Just incase your friend asks you to do something last minute for her. But I know how you feel I wouldn't want to wait any longer my HM either.

HTH

I would talk to your friend first, find out if she is definitely planning for that date, then you will have to make a decision. Is she in your wedding party as well?

ETA: If she was your MOH and did the same thing, would it bother you?

yea, she's a bridesmaid in my wedding party. i don't want to step on her toes but she's already been doing it to me in other ways. she's been acting selfish in my opinion. so i'm not really caring all that much if i cut it close...but at the same time i do care cuz she is my friend.

i think maybe i should ask her or just run it by her to see what she says.

and nicole - don't worry about it, i want honest opinions! lol and there's times when i do agree with my mom about it too! but then i'm like 'this is about me! not my friend' ughhh lol

OH if she is having another MOH then I think you are fine!!!! She will have the other MOH run errands if need be and you will def. be there for the RD. Just run it by her first out of resepct.


ETA: I now change my advice since I found out a little more info

ITA, you wouldnt want your MOH doing this to you, and since your going to be her MOH (which is an hour) I think you should kinda take into account her schedule as well JMO, if you could leave a day or two earlier in June i think that would work out well

hmm thats a toughie...its your wedding HM so you should do what you want. i would run it by her that you may be getting back a few days before so you may miss the RD. plus she hasnt even set a definite date...how long are YOU supposed to wait for that?
she might not be able to even get that date and then all this stress is for nothing lol. was it possibility to go a few days earlier and come back a few days earlier?

what if she cant do the date she wants to do and ends up doing it lets say a week earlier. I would just be afraid with that since she hasnt booked anything yet.

if she keeps that date though you should be fine. My friend was on her hm and when she came back she had about 2-3 days until she was a bm in her friends wedding. She just made sure to get the dress altered before she even left for the HM and the girl had her bp a while before so she was also around for that.
