It's Official!

Ryan and I finally finished the last piece to our honeymoon puzzle. On our wedding night we will be staying at "The Duke Mansion." It is an old plantation home built into a Bed and Breakfast, located in downtown Charlotte.

And then, we'll drive about 3 1/2 hours south to Charleston, South Carolina! We will be spending 4 nights at the Sheraton hotel which is located in the heart of downtown. I have heard nothing but wonderful things about Charleston. It's supposed to be one of the most romantic cities in the south...ahem ahem. Can't go wrong. Charleston is right on the coast so I'll be spending lots of time at the beach. Ryan's dad was able to give us his accumulated hotel Sheraton points due to many many work trips to Asia, so we're staying for Free! Ryan and I are both excited to splurging a bit on nice restaurants and fun activities!

AND: Ryan's parents have decided that since they are traveling this far for the wedding, might as well spend some vacation time as well! They are renting out a beach house for the whole family the week after Ryan and I get married. No worries, Ryan and I will be able to spend a few days with them at the end of the week. The beach house will be on Hilton Head Island, also located in South Carolina. Check out this beach:

Lots of R&R time. Can't wait!
