Hello New brides and congratulations

I'm getting married in August and I booked my honeymoon last week. I really thought i would be a lovely idea to go on our honeymoon has Mr and Mrs and put it in my married name. It was after that i realised that i would have to sign my new passport in my new name (before the wedding).

I'm probably being the most ridiculous person ever and paranoid but im quite superstitious and was worried that i was going to jinx things. Did anyone else do the same and practice their new signature before the wedding and everything is going fine (for now) lol.

I know this is such a ridiculous post but ive been so worried lol and of course my H2B thinks im being really stupid as well and wants us to go away in our married names.

Thanks

I only found out today that you can get a new passport ready to go on your honeymoon....Wish the travel agent told me this as she went into detail about making sure I travel in my maiden name!

I don't think its superstitious! Go for it! I might even call my travel agent and see how much it costs to change the names haha!

Check with your airline operator as you maybe able to travel with your passport in your maiden name along with a copy of your marriage certificate.

Hi I got my new passport in my new name before our wedding as I wanted to go on honeymoon as Mr and Mrs. I didnt worry about jinxing things and in fact was really excited when I received my new passport in my new name,. Must have looked at it about 20 times before I put it away! I would say go for it cos it is the best feeling going away as Mr and Mrs on honeymoon, and I think you would regret not doing it if you went away in your maiden name. Hope that helps ?

Decide before you book your honeymoon. It won't matter which name. You're you! Saying that I changed my name for my first marriage and am doing it again. It is very quick to change your passport (you can pretty much post it now, I am august 3rd so i can send mine on Friday). Of course, the fact that I did change mine before my last wedding might make you feel it was jinxed!. I don't believe you can jinx it. You probably want to practice your new signature anyway. It will change over time.

Besides, I love the idea at peeking at 'Mrs S...' I giggle at the idea.
