Real Honeymoon: Riviera Maya, Mexico

Hey everyone! Such an exciting week ahead here at Ever After Honeymoons!! On Wednesday, we will be venturing to the beautiful islands of St. Barths & Anguilla with Summer Watkins of Grey Likes Weddings! Stay tuned for exciting twit-pics and updates!

Today I am excited to feature Kendall from The Yes Girls on her honeymoon with Tommy in Riviera Maya, Mexico. First off, if you don't know of The Yes Girls, you should get to know about them! These girls help guys come up with fun and romantic proposals. Genius, right?

The two newlyweds chose to escape to El Dorado Maroma in Riviera Maya.  After their wedding they didn't want to spend a lot of time traveling so Riviera Maya was the perfect destination.

El Dorado Maroma

El Dorado Maroma is a gorgeous adults only, all inclusive resort.  The resort is located on Maroma Beach, which is the nicest strip of beach in Riviera Maya.  The resort has just 74 suites, so it is really quiet and private- perfect for honeymoon couples!

Relaxing and not having an agenda was their favorite part of their honeymoon! After their trip, Kendall had some really good advice for other couples preparing for their own honeymoons:

"Don't try to plan too much. Enjoy every day and really act like you are on your honeymoon! So many times on vacation we come home more tired than when we left because of how much we try to do. Read, eat, don't think about stress back home & just enjoy each others company!"

Sometimes, advice like that is so easy to forget and I agree that it is so important to just enjoy your time together when you are on your honeymoon. Rejuvenating, blissful, & fun, El Dorado Maroma was the ideal escape for Kendall & Tommy. So glad you guys had such a great time!

Real Honeymoon: Greece

Today, I am super excited to share the honeymoon adventures of Ashley from Be Inspired PR & her new hubby Tyman! They are just about one of the cutest couples around (to see what I mean, click here, here, & here!!) and they were such a joy to work with.  Ashley & Tyman decided on Greece because not only had neither been before, they also felt that the destination offered a good balance of relaxing and adventurous activities.

The newlyweds!

 To kick off the honeymoon, Ashley & Tyman began in Mykonos at the Kivotos hotel. With only 38 rooms, it was a perfect escape after all of the wedding festivities. The Kivotos Hotel is also absolutely amazing, with some of the best views of the island and a fabulous private beach.

Next, the two ventured to the romantic island of Santorini and stayed at the Aressana. Of the two major cities on the island, Oia & Fira, Oia was the couples favorite because they felt it was quintessential Greece, and I have to agree! The bright white buildings against the rugged landscape and gorgeous blue waters.... I can't get enough!

After their island adventures, the two headed back to the mainland and explored some of the beautiful Greek historical sites including Delphi & Meteora. Lastly, the two stayed in Athens at the Ava Hotel & Suites. Finishing up their honeymoon escape with some of the best site seeing Greece has to offer was perfect for these two and they left filled with enough Greek yogurt & Greek salad to last them a lifetime :).

Real Honeymoon: Bora Bora & Moorea

Hey everyone! I hope you all had a great weekend! To get the week started off right, I am excited to feature the exquisite honeymoon of Bryan & Laura to Bora Bora & Moorea. Not only is this one of the cutest couples, they were also fabulous photographers! The two started off in Moorea at the Hilton Moorea Lagoon & Spa where they spent their days filled with activities and then they made their way to the Four Seasons Bora Bora where they relaxed and soaked up paradise. Literally, their pictures are breathtaking.
