Relaxation & Honeymoon Packing List

Our wedding is sneaking up on us (only 25 days to go!), and in honor of National Relaxation Day (August 15), I’m sharing what I plan to pack for part of our honeymoon – the “I’m sitting by the pool all day today” part.

We’re also hoping to go to Hawaii this year, so I’m thrilled that Tommy Bahama’s “Summer of Go” Sweepstakes has a grand prize of a trip to Hawaii. I’m totally in.
Necessary for a relaxing poolside vacation: cute swimsuits, easy sandals that go with everything, maxis and coverups, and a bag to carry extra sunblock, our room key, and a great book.

Did you know that August 15 is National Relaxation Day? Tommy Bahama is hosting the “Summer of Go” Sweepstakes in honor of all those who need a vacation (Right here!).

Weekly prizes July 16-August 18 include a vacation for 2 (flights! hotels! gift cards!), and the grand prize on August 18 is a trip for 4 to Hawaii. Go here for more details (or don’t, in which case I have a better chance of winning).

Thank you to Tommy Bahama for sponsoring this post. All opinions are my own – because who wouldn’t love a free trip to a tropical paradise?
