After considering all the expense of a formal wedding, hundreds of details and preparations to handle and months of stress, eloping to Las Vegas might seem like a good idea. 100,000 people every year get married in Las Vegas and the city has been called the Marriage Capital of the World.

That reputation started in 1912, when California imposed a three-day wait after getting the marriage license. It was called the “Gin Law” because legislators passed the law to reduce the numbers of drunk, impulsive weddings.

It was a wonderful 2 weeks’ break that my wife and I had. It was a trip to Japan and our itinerary covered popular tourist hotspots like Tokyo, Nagano (Matsumoto), Osaka, Kyoto, Kobe, Hakone and back to Tokyo again.

It was an amazing 2 weeks’ long break and it was in fact the longest vacation we had ever since we got married exactly 2 years ago.

In summary, they work for themselves and there is no need to get their leaves approved by someone else.

I have always thought that wedding planning is fun.

Yes, it is!

And at the same time, it is very tiring, worst than my final year project which I took in my final year of my University days.

If I have the chance to choose again for my honeymoon destination, I would love to go for a Maui Spa Honeymoon.

Why a spa honeymoon?

Imagine slipping into comfortablen spa robes and spending your first few days doing nothing and getting your well-deserved rest.

Of course, the eventual purpose is to relax our tired bodies, epsecially after 12 months of continous wedding planning.

Have you gone for your second honeymoon?

Nope, it is not a typo error.

What about your third honeymoon or the fourth one?

Have you bought your air tickets?

The first one was to Seoul and Jeju of South Korea and the second one was to Hong Kong.

The third one will be coming soon and it will be to Japan.
