Plans for after the wedding...

Maggieaha

I just talked my fiance into running a 5k with me after we're married. I just started running a couple of weeks ago, and have improved so quickly that I want to try a race for the first time. I think that things will be a bit crazy before we get married, so we're going to run it after. I'm so excited!!! Irrationally so. haha!

What are your plans as a couple after you're married? Anything besides the wedding day (and marriage) to look forward to?

We plan to buy a house and go on our honeymoon.  Nothing that big.  We don't have any other huge plans.  We just take things as they happen.

My fiancee is actually trying to convince me to do a 5k! I used to be very athletic and loved playing sports, but I probably haven't really exercised in 3 years (I'm terrible, I know!) I don't think I could run a half a mile let alone a 5k...but I told him I would start training soon hah

Other than that, I'm just looking forward to our honeymoon in St. Lucia, moving into our house, and both of us will be done with grad school next year! (:

We dont really have any plans for after the wedding other the honeymoon.  I am headed to Vegas in October for work so I am trying to get FI to come with me and then other then that we will just be saving since we want to buy a house soon

YuMMMy721

Nothing too exciting for us. Relaxing after all the crazy wedding planning!! We plan to start trying for babbies at christmas time, so that'll be fun... but just enjoying married life, and of course the honeymoon!!!

We'll go on our honeymoon a couple weeks after the wedding and then I'm going to start gathering ideas for our kitchen remodel. I've been telling FI for the past year that I plan to use any monetary gifts from the wedding to redo the kitchen. I'm super excited to start this project.  Hopefully my sister gets engaged this summer so I can help her plan her wedding for next summer (but without the stress of being the bride). We plan to go to Ireland next summer too and after that, I want to get on the baby making train!!!

Honeymoon, Buying a house, and then BABIES!

mekiakoo

Originally I pictured us getting married, buying a house, and having babies. But we just bought our house. So I'm looking forward to making improvements to our house and babies!

1 of our cousin is getting married in June and she just had a baby in January and other one just got married in November and is due in October. AHHH BABY FEVER!!!

dawnleanna1

Two weeks in Europe for our honeymoon! After that? Relaxing with the kids before school starts again. We already have 4 kids so no more babies for us!

brandeeteer

We're remodeling the house that his dad gave us. It needs a facelift and also planning on finishing the basement. I already have 2 kids that he's been raising since they were young so we decided no babies for us.

We're doing a race too! We're registered for a a half marathon in October. It'll be my first half (I've done some 5milers and 10K races before) and his second. I'm excited to train together and glad to have a goal aside from fitting in my dress as an exercise motivator.

And I am jealous of all you people on the baby-making path! We're young (24) but mostly want to wait till we're more more advanced in our careers (I'm a teacher and he's a journalist).  So we're going to wait till I finish my master's and possibly my 6th year before we try. I am so busy with working full-time and taking classes I couldn't imagine being pregnant or having a baby during it. And it will be nice to be making more money when that time comes, so that's part of it too.

Honeymoon in Aruba, and then we come back and the next weekend is another wedding we are attending for friends, then a couple weekends later is Fi's 10-year HS reunion. We hope to be in a new house or at least in escrow by August, and then I'm looking forward to making a baby!

We are taking our honeymoon in December and then we will think about buying a home in 12 years. We want to make sure this is where we will be for 5 years before making that type of investment. We have also said roughly 810 years before even thinking about babies!

Our plan for after the wedding is not to have any plans.

Skyjewell23

Babies for sure We plan to start trying in January.

We move into our new home May 31st so that will be a little before the wedding, but I can't wait until we are married and living there.

Honestly I think the one thing I am most excited about it seeing that ring on his hand everyday for the rest of my life. I don't think it will ever get old

Well, right after the wedding are the olympics in London, so we're really excited for that! Then we have pretty much 1 wedding a month through the Fall, all of which we have to travel out of London for. Then hopefully we can focus a bit more on traveling around Europe (my goal when I moved to the UK was to visit one new place in Europe a month, but it hasn't happened so far). Then sometime in 2013, we will move back to the U.S., and probably start trying for babies around 2014, when we're settled somewhere.

No plans but to live a happy married life

elizabethmae315

At 22, no babies on the schedule yet. Talk to me in a couple years. Plus, we'll have a niece or nephew this winter, so that may hold us over awhile. 

I just plan to spend time with FI, since we only see eachother on weekends right now, I cant wait to see him and wake up next to him everyday. 

We plan to watch football all weekend in the fall, without the annoying homework getting in my way. 

We are taking a real honeymoon in Jamaica in January. Then we are thinking about adopting a dog next march, around my 23rd birthday.  

ETA: oh yeah. we'll have a house. hopefully. 

syddy88

We started a bucket list since we will have more spending money once its not all being poured into the wedding. Also, save up to buy a house. We feel like we have been in such a whirlwind with the wedding planning that we want to relax for a while and enjoy being married. Once you have kids you are a parent forever, so we want some time to enjoy just being married before we jump on the having a family plan.

We are hoping to buy a house by the beginning of next year; Since my daughter just turned 10 we are actually TTC now (the sooner the better for us); I am looking for a new Masters program after the wedding as well. That is about it for us. Just looking forward to finding our "groove" as a family.

littlemoments324

not really much...

1) hopefully find better job
2) babies
3) Cruise
4) babies
5) possibly move back to MI

BeachLover2885

We are going on our honeymoon a few days later and then our goal is to buy a house or townhouse next year. We both want a dog (not in a pet-friendly apartment now) and then I think we will try to get pregnant within two years. 

laceyr1985

Well we already have babies!!!! Lol...we want to move into a house work on starting our own business! O yes...probably 1 more baby!!!! :

owengirl996

Haha I just told FI today he should work up to running a 5K with me I did one about two years ago, and I still run, but kind of fell off that wagon. I usually run 2 miles 3-4 times a week, so I think I could work my way back up to it. FI has just recently started running "with" me (ie, he sprints ahead of me, then waits til I get ahead, then sprints again...not exactly at a 5K pace, but at least he's doing it!)

I want babies! But he wants to wait a little bit. If we don't end up pregnant by next year, we will probably take a cruise or something as our "real" honeymoon. We are only going on a mini-moon right after the wedding, since we have to travel for it anyway. The timing just wasn't working, and I would have had to take more than 2 weeks off of work in a row, which then requires special permission...

We'd love to get a house, but they are just so dang expensive here that I don't see it happening in the next few years. As lame as it sounds, I'm more excited to become 90% debt free in the next 4-5 years, if we can. (We will still have student loans, but cars should be just about paid off!)

NikkiF731

After the wedding we are catching our breath for a day, honeymooning for a week in Alaska, adopting a puppy, continuing the friend wedding circuit, and hopefully I'll be employed in a school district. Those are the most immediate plans. Also, I'm really really looking forward to hosting thanksgiving for both of our families at our house! (once we flipping finally close)

TChiumi

We are going on our honeymoon, I will be starting teaching at a new school, we will be moving, and then hopefully babies!!
