I kidnapped My Husband!

Sorry for pulling a disappearing act! We are both back to work and given our schedules we will have no time off during the summer months. Last week I decided to kidnap my husband for a quick R&R in Tulum, Mexico. He didn't know where he was going until the morning we left for the airport. He was not happy after I told him he would have to leave behind any liquids, razors, etc. He was prepared to drive, not to fly.

I had Tulum, Mexico on my travel bucket list for a while and I was finally able to find the right time and budget to go. Once we arrived in Cancun (which was a very easy airport to get through) we rented a car and drove about an hour and a half south. Once we arrived to our small hotel and were shown to our cabana, this was the view we found from our front porch.

We relaxed, had great food and visited the Tulum Mayan Ruins.

It was a wonderful short trip but as always we are glad to be home! Do you have any favorite last minute getaway locations? 

The Encore Bride Style File-Elopement in Mexico

By now I know everyone has seen this beautiful elopement ceremony Style Me Pretty featured a few weeks ago. It was designed by Lisa Vorce of Oh, How Charming! and photographed by Aaron Delesie. As soon as I opened the blog it blew me away and spoke to me, yeah, it said "You should totally do this!" I haven't been able to stop thinking about it and the idea of eloping. It seems to carefree, romantic and courageous!

I can only think of all the beautiful places I would elope to. Would you do it? Where would you go?
