The week after the wedding, we're kicking off married life with some family traditions we love. First up: the annual Riha family trip in Alys Beach. Then, we’ll head over to Miramar Beach to celebrate the Fourth of July with the Sanders family. But the celebration doesn’t stop there! We're doing not one, but two mini-moons before our big honeymoon in January. Mini-Moon #1 The second weekend of July, we’re flying to Orlando, Florida for a weekend at Epcot and Universal Studios! We’ve always wanted to "drink around the world," and we figured there’s no better time than as newlyweds. Margaritas in Mexico, beer in Germany, champagne in France — we’re coming for it all. Mini-Moon #2 In September, we're heading to one of our favorite cities — Chicago! We’re excited for a few days filled with fun, great food, and soaking it all in as newlyweds. On the itinerary: brunch at Beatrix in River North (Emma is already dreaming about the green chicken chili enchiladas), cocktails with a view from the 95th floor of the John Hancock Building, catching a White Sox game, a cozy dinner at Gilt Bar, and strolls down Michigan Avenue. And finally... Our Official Honeymoon – January 2026 After countless YouTube videos (and more than a few snacks) on a rainy Saturday afternoon, we finally landed on our dream destination: Curaçao! We’ll be trading winter coats for swimsuits and heading off on a tropical escape. For seven sun-soaked days, we’ll explore colorful streets, relax on beautiful beaches, and dive into the island’s vibrant culture — and hopefully into some crystal-clear waters too.
