I know I’m not the only Floridian on here, so I would request prayers for all of us.
My fiancé and I just purchased our new home in Tampa. We are getting married next week out of state and won’t be home to see the damage until mid-October. A hurricane was not on our radar and we are not from Fl, so it’s hard to know what to expect. Please pray that our home withstands the storm. Please pray that our windows do not break and our A/C does not go out. We want to avoid mold especially since we’ll be gone.
I’m feeling a bit helpless and depressed and am really hoping for some good news. Thanks anons <3
If it were me I would compromise and just cut the honeymoon short but don't skip it. Whether you are there the day after your wedding or a month later isn't going to change what has already happened. Maybe call your insurance company and tell them you will be out of town and may have damage, and let them know why your damage report will be slower. Can't hurt, and they probably expect you to be late if you just moved to FL and haven't experienced the whole insurance/FEMA thing yet.
Don't let this ruin your wedding or honeymoon - there's nothing you can do. If you skip and try to honeymoon later it won't be the same as being a newlywed.
Unless you are within walking distance to the water you are probably going to be ok.
