Weddingbee boards
I don't think my future hubby will allow me to even bring a computer...haha!
I would have, but we didn't get Internet (or even cell phone service) where we were.
you'll probably have a lot of downtime, and the allure of the internet may be irresistible. we certainly checked our email every day (and I squeezed in a quick blog I admit!), but if we were to do it again, i'd go totally internet free!
We didn't even bring our laptops because it would have been a temptation. We texted friends, but stayed away from the internet. Actually, it was kind of nice to be completely unplugged.
I had my Iphone so I did read a little of weddingbee every and posted a couple updates on Facebook with pictures of our room and the view. I did read other peoples posts on Facebook but didnt comment. We turned off our service other than wifi on our honeymoon because if someone accidentally called or texted us, it wouldve been alot of money! This way we could still keep in touch with people but still be disconnected in a way :)
There is no "other" option. I don't have a cell phone. My FI does, but its those pay as you go ones. We've used it maybe 5 times since February 
Where we're going on our honeymoon there is internet access in the main lobby I think, but the last time we went to a similar resort there was a heck of a waiting line...so I don't think I would be checking online anytime soon on our honeymoon!
no honeymoon for us (yet) but I voted "Only to post a couple pics for family to see."
we used the hotel's computers and internet cafes - this was before iphones and blackberries were around. :)
I had a mandatory ban on all electronic devices based on the fact that I was in the middle of nowhere... No cell service, no internet, no outside world. It was actually really good for me, but I definitely had withdrawl!
I don't think I'll be able to resist my iPhone. I just love it/depend on it too much! But it will only be for quick checks on the real important stuff. You know, e-mail, Facebook, and Weddingbee!
No because we are only going to be gone for two days. Even I can handle being electronic free for two days. But 3 is probably my limit and if we were going on a week or two long honeymoon, I'd find away to at least update my status once or twice.
We were pretty internet and phone free. We only had the Mister's phone with us and we checked email (and possibly Weddingbee) every couple days. To be honest, it was nice to have down time for all that technology.
I should also say that we were in Panama, and in some remote places.
I logged on to the internet once a day for about 30 mins on my honeymoon... Mr. Peng wouldn't allow more! He'd check ESPN, his email, and I'd check weddingbee and my email. :) We both had our "Must check daily" sites!
I'll have to do it on the d.l. Mr. Beagle does not understand my need to check my phone for email/twitter/wb every hour :)
There was a dial-up internet connection at the inn... so we checked our email a total of 3 times over 9 days.... and I sneaked a peak on WB as well. Thank goodness we were on an island that didn't have wifi or any temptations of modern life. I loved the freedom we had from phones/internet... and can't wait to visit again for the same type of escape!
We don't have a laptop right now and won't be taking one with us. When I'm in Jamaica, my cell won't work and I don't wanna be tracking down a computer. I'll get a calling card so we can let our parents know we're safe. But, other than that -- it's just me, my new HUSBAND, a few good books, a few good drinks and the beach!
I was checking Myspace and Facebook on my honeymoon, not to mention a bit of Weddingbee. I still find myself coming back to Weddingbee even though I'm already married. Weddingbee can be addicting!!!
Good for you if you avoid the internet on your honeymoon. We surfed the net way less on our honeymoon, but we both had our laptops and I checked in on WB a couple times. I was glad I checked my e-mail, too, cause our pro pics were finished while we were still away! :D
We brought our laptop so we could look things up, but I stayed away from all that stuff. Checked up a bit, but didn't write emails, didn't talk to people, not facebook status updates, etc. Mr. Joe started to a little, but I said it's our honeymoon and we're supposed to be disconnected from everyone else, and he agreed and went along with it as well. Definitely don't regret it!
My guess is that we'll have his BB and her iPhone that will be by our sides ... at least once during the Honeymoon...maybe more...
I want to say no.
But I love my iPhone, and we always do the crossword or read the paper on our computer...
ugh. it's difficult to can't escape the modern world!
i love excuses not to have my phone! and i think honeymoon is the best excuse ever. my fi will probably have his for alarm clock purposes only.
No internet for me on the honeymoon! I didn't even read my blogs for the four days I was in Philly this weekend!
No offense to the bees and other brides who can't unplug, but I think that for that week or two, you should give all your time to your new husband, not spend it updating your 300 "friends" on Facebook of your very personal time.
We will be bringing his world blackberry so we can stay in touch w/everybody but where we're considering is technology free! No cable, no internet, no phones! Just US!
we checked our email maybe 2-3 times, and I posted our teaser photos. that's about it. We had free internet connection and computers at our hotels--but definitely did not bring our phones with us!
Nothing. I'm not even calling AT&T to see if my phone will work. I hope it doesn't. FI is obssesed with his IPhone. I will be so excited to be able to spend time with him without him checking sports scores or messages every two minutes.
I told my mom I would call her every few days from a pay/room phone. She'll know the hotel numbers in case of emergency and we're giving the petsitter my mom's number as an emergency contact.
It will be sooooo nice to disconnect.
I update my facebook status once or twice from my blackberry, and we brought the laptop so we could back up the camera's memory card every day. There was NO WAY I was going to limit the # of pics I could take. We also used the laptop to buy event tickets and look up local restaurants.
While I would love to pretend that we could live internet free ... this is a hard concept for me ... I'm not exactly sure what I would do... both Loverboy and I have forums we regularly check ... I guess a week away wouldn't ruin it but I'm not sure it would make it any better for us, either. Would depend on where the honeymoon is and what is planned for it I suppose.
Probably. I feel so cut off without those things, as well as my 'puter and the internets. :p
Well ... the only social network site I come to is WeddingBee! I feel completely cut off when I don't update myself on the boards ...
I'm sure it will be "illegal" on our honeymoon =) LOL
Maybe. Who knows. I just may need a looooong relaxing break from the whole world.
I am email and blog junkie. So when we were relaxing in the hotel room I would hop on. I was stalking facebook to see the first pictures people posted! I couldn't help it!
I didn't even turn my phone on for the entire trip! It was amazing! (the over 300 emails I came back to wasn't amazing, but who cares!)
I'll probably tweet some goregeous scenery and facebook stalk the photos friends have posted from our wedding- but I would not be writing on facebook walls or commenting on blogs- just observing :) AKA- no stress, just enjoyment!

Sorry, there are no users yet.
My FI and I, though we are absolutely in love with our gadgets are undecided about using them on our honeymoon. My iPhone contains an application for every social networking site possible (AIM, Yahoo and the above mentioned) but I'm not sure whether I will be using them at all while we are on our much needed vacation.
As much as I love to stay connected, this is the one time where I think I will completely disconnect.
What about you? Will you be using your phones, PDA's or laptops to report back while on your honeymoon????
