It's been just about a month since we returned from our honeymoon and we have kept very busy since then (which I will be updating about soon!) - but in the meantime, I just had to share our honeymoon with you! Spending 8 nights at Secrets Maroma Beach in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico was absolutely incredible and we are blessed to have such fond memories of our honeymoon. A honeymoon is a once in a lifetime trip; yes, we can go back there in the future, and yes, we hope to visit and explore an abundant amount of places/resorts in our future, but there will not be another trip like our honeymoon. I highly recommend taking your honeymoon immediately following the wedding, if possible, because that week was such a special time for us. We were on a natural high and feeling so in love. We were able to share such vibrant memories of our wedding as it was fresh in our heads, and celebrate the fact that we were exchanging vows and rings and shedding joyful tears just days before. It was a once in a lifetime trip that we certainly made the most of!
Just a little recap - we left the Monday following our wedding and we were beyond excited after months of planning. It surely lived up to all the hype! Upon arrival, we were given champagne with fruit, treated like royalty, and the moment we walked out from checking in, our concierge greeted us with "Welcome home, Mr. & Mrs. Barr!" Not only did we have no clue how he knew our names already, but we were also basking in glory with the thought of "Mr. & Mrs. Barr." He showed us to our room (with chilled champagne and fruit awaiting our arrival) and then it begun - a week of pure bliss! The food, the drinks, the staff and the atmosphere were everything we could have wanted and more.
Oh, and the photographers were just as great...
Secrets Maroma Beach - you were wonderful!
