Mr. Handy and I aren’t too big into dancing. I am a little too conservative to be droppin’ it like it’s hot, and he wouldn’t know what rhythm was if it knocked him over. During our many years of relationship bliss, I can honestly tell you that we have never danced together, well, except for the occasional twirl in our living room. I can’t imagine my friends dancing to Flo Rida with my elder family watching. I am not sure if most people dance the way we do up here, but shall I say, its a little on the “oh my goodness—did she really just do that” side. It’s somewhat provocative and not really appropriate for a wedding. Most people tell me after a few drinks you won’t even care about the way anyone is dancing. But then my reply is, “We don’t drink either.” Boring, aren’t we?

With that said, we aren’t having a reception. Well we are, but it is more like just a dinner. After the ceremony on the aqueduct, we are heading over to…

(Imagine a big square of long tables, not round ones scattered everywhere.)

Three Palms

Deck

It overlooks an amazing view of the golf course, the breathtaking Caribbean to your left, and the lush mountains of Jamaica on your right. The food is mouthwatering, and do you want to know the best part? Its included in the all-inclusive package! The only cost that comes out of our pocket is the rental of the room and any upcharges on the food. Since it is all inclusive, they do have about five entrees that are a $20 upcharge that will get billed to the room. We will be paying that upcharge should anyone feel the need to dig into a juicy steak and lobster dinner. I wouldn’t blame them, it is scrumptious! Oh and one more thing: since it is a part of the restaurant, they decorate it with whatever I flowers I want. I just tell my wedding planner what color flowers, which ones, and whatever decorations (in moderation), and they will provide. I highly doubt they will have amazing vintage pieces on hand, so I might end up purchasing a few items, but with the renting of the room and the fee for upcharging, we are still saving so much money! Sweet!

After the ceremony and dinner, we are keeping the option open to go the club/bar on the resort, and of course it’s all inclusive! The music they play of course is Jamaican (yea, mon!), the dance floor is already there, and I highly doubt any grandparents or elder family will even consider going in there. So if when my friends decide to do the booty shake, our elders won’t see it and have a stroke. Can you tell I am slightly nervous about the dancing part?

Do you think I am crazy yet?
