Boyfriend and I had gotten married in a very small ceremony with almost no family or friends in attendance. We hurried back to my house in New Jersey so that we could grab our things and get to the airport to go on our honeymoon. Boyfriend's dad and V.B. were there to help us. I ran upstairs to my room to grab a suitcase and I started filling it with clothes I thought I'd need for two weeks; we were headed somewhere tropical so I was packing summer clothes and I also packed running clothes/shoes. Boyfriend jogged upstairs to hurry me along so I zipped up my suitcase and followed him downstairs and out the front door to the black Escalade in my driveway. On our way downstairs Boyfriend and I had decided that it would be best if I drove since I knew where the Newark airport was and could get us there without getting lost. As I was about to jump in the driver's seat, I realized I'd forgotten both of my phone chargers, so I apologized and ran back inside. My cats were looking at me like, "where are you going and for how long?" and that's when I realized that I hadn't arranged for anyone to watch them while I was gone. Then I saw my deodorant on the dresser and had to grab that. Next, I couldn't remember if I'd packed running clothes and couldn't decide if I should just put some on, just in case. Lastly, I realized that I hadn't showered so I jumped in and took a very quick one. When I got out of the shower, Boyfriend was there asking me what the heck I was doing. I explained to him all of my problems and he convinced me that everything would be fine, but I still lingered in my room. He coaxed me out and as I looked back at my room I saw my Blackberry sitting on my nightstand so I ran back to get it. AT this point, Boyfriend tells me that we have 55 minutes until our plane takes off and I realize that we're just barely going to make it in time so we both jog downstairs. I stop midway down the stairs to take stock of what I am doing - getting married, escaping on this honeymoon, and my family has absolutely no idea about all this - then I see Boyfriend hobbling out of the kitchen and into the foyer on a crutch. I ask him what happened and he tells me that he just did something that really hurt his right ankle, knee and hip, so he needed to lean on a crutch for support. He hobbles out to the car and his dad helps him into the passenger seat as I jump in the driver's seat. V.B. and Boyfriend's dad sit in the backseat. I buckle up and grab the sun shades from the windshield but I can't fold them properly and Boyfriend is starting to get angry about how long it's taking me to do everything. I toss them at his feet and they pop open, so I say, "Watch out!" so that he doesn't get hit by them. As I drive off, I realize that I had just made us incredibly late and we might miss our flight and not get to go on our honeymoon.
There also was a part of this dream with an oyster feed and a lot of people, but I can't remember anything more than that it happened outside.
