Honeymoon::Kauai

Since our two year anniversary was this past Sunday...and every Thursday prior to this post, I've been posting our wedding details...I grew a little nostalgic thinking about today being Thursday and not having another wedding post to share with you....SO I thought, what better time to share our honeymoon than now?!  Get excited!!  :)

We got married in August, which apparently is hurricane season in a lot of exotic locations...so that ultimately narrowed our search down to a few spots for our honeymoon.  I wanted to be somewhere remote, but not deal with the headache of a long flight or currency exchange.  We decided that Hawaii would be a great location for our honeymoon...Kauai to be specific!

I love Kauai for being so remote and beautiful, and yet there is the commercial aspect, should you have that desire.  There are two major resorts on the island, but plenty of hotels, condos, and everything in between.  I would highly recommend the island...we had the most amazing experience!

 Arriving at the Grand Hyatt!  Aloha!

 Pure relaxation...ahhh!

 Spouting Horn

 Enjoying dinner...yum!

 Our tour of the Napali Coast, via catamaran.

 Such a beautiful day!  

 ::love::

 Gorgeous waterfall...one of many throughout the trip!

 Sightseeing on the north shore.


 Queen's Bath...a must!

 Kung Fu Panda...beware!

 The Grand Canyon of the Pacific!

 Helicopter Tour...look ma, no doors!

 The most amazing views!

 Napali Coast from the air...so so beautiful!

 Amazing tour, but happy to be back on ground!

 Married one week!  At the Beach House!

 Ahhh...I loved this cabana!

Last night...tan, fat and happy!  :)

We honestly had the best time in Kauai...I can't recommend a better place for a honeymoon or vacation.  It's the perfect mix of relaxation and recreation.  Have you been before?  Where did you go {or where do you like to go} on you honeymoon?

WOW, what a fun, adventurous and relaxing vacay! Loved that you did the helicopter tour. They didn't offer that in Bora Bora, but it was spectacular. xo

Breathtaking! Looks like y'all had an absolutely blast. It's always so fun to look back. I wish we could go on a "honeymoon" once a year. :) Happy 2nd anniversary!

Looks like you had an amazing honeymoon. I don't think that I could have been in a helicopter without doors. SCARED of heights!! Great post.

Tara {The Silver Lining} said...

Your honeymoon looks absolutely fabulous! What great memories to look back on. I've just been married a year and half now, and I loved our honeymoon too! It's just such a perfect time no matter where you go....but Hawaii looks amazing. Definitely on my places to go!

Stephanie said...

SO beautiful!! I'll be in Honolulu in 3 weeks and I canNOT wait!! :)

Cheryl E. said...

I got engaged in Hawaii and totally fell in love with it. I totally agree that there is not a better place to vacation. We always talk about going back. So amazing!

Michaela said...

WOW girl! What beautiful pictures. I love Kauai...we went a few years back and had a great time. Didn't expect all those random chickens and geckos everywhere, though! You guys look adorable as always (:

Stephanie said...

I know we've talked about this before (when we discovered we both at The Beach House), but we did Kauai and Maui for our honeymoon. It was fabulous! Love all of your pictures!

Ava said...

Love Hawaii~ great pictures!

Carrie @ Hazardous Design said...

Too funny, my husband and I visited Kauai the year after we got married. I have a photo of myself in front of (what looks to be) that same waterfall!

Claudia Lane said...

sherri lynn said...

Gorgeous pictures! I love the ones from the helicopter. We would love to go to Hawaii one day.

Ashley said...

looks amazing! is that "bath" like warm water?? I think they had that on the bachelorette ...right? looks so awesome!

I want to go to bora bora for my honeymoon :)

Aubrey {All Things Bright and Beautiful} said...

That definitely does look like the best place for a honeymoon...I have no idea what we were thinking when we went on ours to Orlando...including Disney and Universal! It was definitely not the relaxing and romantic getaway that it should have been! Oh well, you live, you learn, right?

Becca {A Blonde's Logic} said...

I miss Hawaii! Never been to Kauai though but will have to go!

Natasha, as ever you are so gorgeous and look so completely happy in your honeymoon pictures!!! I'm so excited to see your photos.....we're planning to take our kids to Hawaii this coming winter or spring and Kauai is looking like our destination. I can't believe you did that helicopter ride! It looks amazing but insane all at once - but the views are incredible! What a beautiful celebration of your marriage and a way to start your life together.
