Packing for the honeymoon....

Anyone else stressed about this? We are going to be away for 9 days, beaching, hiking, biking, and nice dinners at night. So I have to pack for all that. Under normal circumstances I’d be stressed about packing for a trip like that, but planning a wedding at the same time is making it much worse!

I get BRIDES Mag and in their last issue i believe there was a checklist of what you should bring that I tore out and am going to use...

Try looking on their website..im looking right now, i think it will take the edge off!

My mom got me a hope chest for Xmas, so whenever I thought of something I wanted to bring on the HM, I threw it in there. It really helped alot and I was able to do it a little at a time.

i say the same thing everytime but i still always overpack. I will bring at least 2 outfits for each day. A daytime and night outfit and a few extras to decide among. I will try to do better with shoes this time bc i usually bring too many shoes and dont wear most lol, it takes up so much space for shoes so ill try to work on this.

Ugh, I can TOTALLY relate to this! I ALWAYS overpack and dont end up wearing half of the stuff. Plus, I invariably forget something or realize there is something I wish I'd packed. I'm so bad at it.

I always pack enough for like a month..even it's a long weekend trip.

FH said all I need is 2 bathing suits and lingerie.

I said 'hello!! what about when we go to dinner?' and he said 'bring a skirt to wear over the bathing suit bottom'

Boys have NO clue!!

Don't stress it though, just bring as much as you can. and worse comes to worse, buy it there.

youre lucky bc beach stuff are smaller and easier to pack. We're not doing any beaches so i do have to bring daytime outfits and dresses and even quite a few dressy dresses. Fh is even bringing a couple of suits, maybe i should get the zip lock type bags but the ones for packing clothes in the suit case lol

The key for me is NOT packing 34639027304 pairs of shoes
Especially since I end up wearing 2-3 anyway

Aaarrghhh! Plus we dont even have a suitcase big enough! We registered for one, but who knows if we will get it. Might have to run out right before and get an emergency suitcase.
