4 offbeat destination wedding & honeymoon venues in Puerto Rico

Last month I went on a 5-day press tour of Puerto Rico, busing around the island with a pack of other journalists to check out wedding and honeymoon destinations. It was fucking awesome, and I saw some venues that OMG, you guys… if you’re planning a destination wedding (or looking for a honeymoon spot), you would LOVE these places.

Hannah and Simon’s family-centered, baby-wearing adventure honeymoon in Bali

We went to Bali, Indonesia. We chose to go somewhere affordable, but family-friendly. We didn’t think we could afford to go on a honeymoon, let alone schedule it in.

We decided to delay our honeymoon so that it overlapped with the anniversary of the DDay landing. We ended up flying to Europe in May 2010, seven months after our wedding.
