So now that we are married we need to get on the ball with planning our honeymoon. Yes you read that right, we are married and have not had our honeymoon or even planned it.
J and I have known for a while we want to go somewhere in the mountains during the cold winder months for our honeymoon. We want to snuggle up by a fire with all our fur babies with hot cocoa warming our hands and snow is falling outside.
Something like this is perfect!
We want to get away from it all, no phones, no computers, no iPads, maybe a TV so we can watch movies or binge watch Netflix together. We want to spend some time together without a care in the world, not worrying about groceries for a few days or waking up the next morning for work and in our mind a nice cabin on the mountain side in the Carolina's is just what we are looking for.
Originally the plan was to rent our a cabin from a family friend in Boone, North Carolina... however we both really want to see The Biltmore Estate which is in Ashville, 2 hours away from Boone.
I always thought the Biltmore was just a big old beautiful historic house that they opened for tours, turns out I was wrong. Besides amazing interior and perfect gardens there is a restaurant with rave reviews and my favorite part.. a winery!!!
We plan on going around Christmas time and the amount of lights they have and amazingly decorated trees, just thinking about get makes me smile. J and I's most favorite time of year is Christmas, we love the lights, the joy in everyones hearts and it is a time for family which is something we love most.
But I mean look at this place during Christmas! Breathtaking!!
Now to my favorite part... The winery!!!
They make the wine from their own vineyard on property, have complementary tastings and a wine bar with one of my other favorite things... CHEESE!
One of the older ladies J has befriended at work told him all about this estate and it has totally changed my mind on where we wanna go. Now to get planning!
If you have any tips about Asheville, renting cabins or the Biltmore leave it in the comments!
