I think I may have just found the best job in the world.  CNN reports, ” wanted: Luxury-loving couples available to globetrot for six months and get paid to test out the most romantic wedding and honeymoon destinations around the world.

It’s a hard offer to resist, but what’s being described as “The Ultimate Job” is just the latest in a series of recent dream positions to capture the public’s imagination and serve as a brilliant marketing tool for people and places.”

They have had a great response with more than 1,000 couples have already applied for the chance to be sent to resorts in Africa, Europe, Asia and the United States.

“The winners will be asked to blog about their experiences a few times a week “when they can get out of the hammock after sipping a glass of champagne,” Meleady said, and write for The Irish Times once a month.”

They will also be paid 20,000 euros (about $27,000). Hopefuls have until April 7 to apply for the “horrendous assignment” — as the company teasingly calls it — which starts mid-May.

You don’t have to be Irish to apply, but you do have to tout Ireland as part of the process.

Can you believe it?  Being able to travel around blogging about the most perfect places to honeymoon and get paid for it.  WOW, I think I just found my dream job…….

I’m not sure what to say about this.  Did he really have to stop the ceremony to update his Facebook status?  I’m wondering what the bride thought of the entire situation?

2) Register Together: You should try to register together.  By doing this you can eliminate alot of items that you really don’t need. It’s easy to get carried away and register for 3 muffins tins and 2 different types of bottle opens.  However, you should register for whatever you want regardless of the price.  You may not get that $500.00 duvet cover from your friends, but perhaps receive a gift card that can be used towards its purchase.

3) Check Back Often:  You should check back every so often to make sure that everything is OK with the registry.  Make sure the store has crossed it off your registry items that you have already received.  Make sure you understand and agree to the return policy.

4) Think of your Guests:  Make sure the store offers a couple of different ways that your guests can purchase your registered items: online, phone or in-store.  Register for a variety of different priced items so that your guests can make a comfortable decision on the amount spent on your gift.

5) Thank-yous:  Have those thank you cards ready to go as you begin receiving your registered items.  Keeping on top of this makes things much easier for you in the long run.
