I don’t think I can begin to say when the countdown started, outside of how close we finally are to the big day. Planning a wedding is never easy, let alone a destination wedding in 2020.
Are we crazy? Maybe, but full of hope and determination, too, to celebrate our nuptials down in Tulum, Mexico, this November with family and friends. We’re talking less than 30 guests. I call that impressive as is, too! We thankfully did not have to move our dates or travel plans, thus far. The excitement is real, and we are so very excited to get down there not only to relax but to celebrate and be with family! 
There are way too many “what ifs” in life, and we’ve started to learn you can’t question too much. It’s time to live life and see where the road takes us. Our resort, The Bahia Principe Grand Tulum, finishing planned renovations, is scheduled to reopen days before we arrive. Thankfully as bride and groom, we have been lucky enough to escape a few days prior to our guests and seek a little pre-honeymoon down in Mexico.
We’ve gone through countless bumps in the road, difficult conversations, unfortunate realizations and much more throughout this year, as many brides have. It’s quite the learning curve, but we’ll make it.
While away, we are excited to utilize The Parking Spot‘s services once again for a safe, trusted parking spot to leave our car near the airport. This provides such convenience and peace of mind with our early flights.
The days are coming closer as we’ve repeatedly packed our bags and gathered our excitement, and we are beyond ready to take off on this new adventure! I found my forever travel buddy years ago and am thrilled to make it official and continue our adventures for many more!

Jul 26, 2024Bask in Nature’s Tranquility at The Spa at Four Seasons Tamarindo
When the two of us entered The Spa at Four Seasons Tamarindo, past the backlit boutique items and local artisan-painted wood carvings, the place wrapped us in a feeling of tranquility. Its stone walls, earth tones, woven wall hangings and furniture made of natural materials reminded us we are part of nature’s spectrum, the abundant windows showing native plants and trees outside.

Jul 24, 2024Althoff Grand Hotel Schloss Bensberg Review
After a long drive from our previous destination, it was a relief to see Althoff Grandhotel Schloss Bensberg in our view. When we pulled into the hotel court, I felt like we were pulling up to a royal palace. Considering the hotel was originally built as a castle for Prince Elector Johann Wilhelm II of Duesseldorf and his wife, Maria-Luisa of the Medici family, my thought wasn’t that far off.
