Would you call this a honeymoon?

If you were this couple, would you want to be wished a happy honeymoon?

  • Yes, I would be happy to count this as a honeymoon celebration

  • No, we had a real honeymoon already

  • No, I'm pregnant and shy and would be embarrassed by people wishing me a happy honeymoon

  • No, I'd rather celebrate it as a first visit

My nephew got married on June 26 and for a wedding gift we gave the couple a 4 night stay using our DVC points, together with 5 day tickets. Right after the Dis stay they have a business trip to Miami so they have plane tickets.
They already had their "real" honeymoon right after the wedding, went to Italy. They're very excited now about the bride being 8 wks pregnant (a honeymoon baby) and they plan a low-key trip since she has 1st trimester fatigue.

It's also the bride's 1st Disney trip, the groom last went as an older teen.

I was looking up their reservation on the dvcmember.com site and there's an option to enter a "celebration" from a list--the options are b-day, anniversary, engagement, honeymoon, 1st visit, wedding, personal triumph, other. This is what the instructions say:

"What Would You Celebrate?
If you'll be celebrating a special occasion during your stay, please let us know so that we can help you make your visit even more memorable."

Last year we went on a family trip a few days after our 14th anniversary--we entered that as our celebration info and were given anniversary pins & a card, and were greeted at check-in by the CMs.

My question: If you were these newlyweds would you call this a honeymoon? Would you want to hear honeymoon congratulations if your "real honeymoon" was 9 weeks ago and you're now pg? I know a lot of people are pg or have kids already when they get married. But they're an old-fashioned couple, didn't live together before they got married qnd may be a bit embarrassed to be "honeymooning" while pg? I'm wondering about putting down the celebration as "First trip" rather than as a honeymoon?

WWYD?

TIA for any thoughts & suggestions!
 
Maybe to eliminate any stress on your part, and possibly on theirs...why don't you ask them?

You don't have to tell them all of the surprise details--just say "Disney followed up with me regarding your reservations and they asked me if you are celebrating anything special such as a birthday, honeymoon, first time vist, etc." and see what they say! :goodvibes HTH
 
I think "second honeymoon" would fit the bill nicely. Perhaps if you contact MS, they could make a note to alter the designation, or give another idea.
 

Good call - 2nd Honeymoon seems to fit the bill. I would still call it a 1st visit for the bride - regardless of the Honeymoon status.

Last year, I saw lots of people wearing multiple pins - like Birthday and 1st Visit so I think you should def set it up as a 1st visit and ask them about the Honeymoon.
 
The honeymoon is over, obviously ;)
I'd go for first visit :)
