I am so honored to be featured in another fabulous issue of Utterly Engaged!  The theme of the latest issue is Organic Love, and is such a gorgeous issue!  I included my picks for my favorite eco friendly hotels in Central America, with hotels in Costa Rica, Panama, and Belize.

I am in great company in this issue!  A close friend of mine Christy Schnurle produced an incredible shoot featuring her paper products, One Handspun Day.  I love the colors and beautiful details.

I also love the gorgeous engagement pictures for Amanda from 100 Layer Cake and her fiance Tim!  The images by the incredible photographer Elizabeth Messina really capture how in love they are.  I planned their trip to Italy when they got engaged, so I loved hearing more about their love story.

If you haven’t seen this issue yet then definitely check it out now!  And congratulations on another issue!  Every issue is somehow better than the last!

I absolutely love what I do.  That being said, some days it can be downright torture staring at gorgeous vacation pictures all day!

Today I am wishing I was sitting beside this incredible pool at Parrot Cay Resort in Turks and Caicos.  How beautiful and perfectly relaxing does that look?!

And while I am dreaming, I would also like to be wearing this.

Anyone care to join me?


The incredible Petit St Vincent Resort has an amazing limited time offer that I just had to share!  I absolutely loved this resort when I visited earlier this year (and wrote about it here and here).  It is so private, there are beautiful cottages right on the beach, and the service couldn’t be any better.  This is the perfect honeymoon destination for couples looking to relax in luxury.

For stays between June 1-August 31, they are offering a 7 night package in a One Bedroom Cottage for $4,200 for two guests!  This rate includes all meals, all non-alcoholic beverages, and use of all non-motorized water sports.  This rate does not include tax and service charges, or flights to Union Island.

My absolute favorite part about our stay at the Viceroy Riviera Maya was their gorgeous villas!  The hotel is smaller with just 41 private villas.  And every villa has a large terrace with a private pool!  I was in a Royal Jungle Villa.  Come check it out!

I also loved the outdoor shower!

The absolute best part was our large private terrace!  I wish I was still laying on that hammock!

I loved just how spacious and private the villas are!  So perfect for honeymoon couples.

    AMAZING!!! I would love to be here with my future hubby (26days til our wedding)

I am back after a fabulous trip to the Viceroy Resort in Riviera Maya!  I absolutely loved this resort for so many reasons!  It was the perfect place to relax and be pampered, and would be an incredible hotel for honeymoon couples!

The beach at the hotel is absolutely gorgeous!  They have these beautiful covered cabanas with the most comfortable beach beds!

One evening we did tequila and ceviche tasting which was so much fun!  Highly recommended!

There is a beautiful restaurant and bar right on the beach!  I loved having breakfast and looking out at the water every morning.

The service at this hotel is so warm, friendly, and helpful.  The hotel is really small so everyone quickly learns your name which is so nice!

Next I will be sharing the hotel’s gorgeous private villas!  Interested in going to Viceroy Riviera Maya for your honeymoon?  Contact us!
