Bachelor in Paradise alumni Ashley Iaconetti and Jared Haibon’s honeymoon was every foodie’s heaven. The Bachelor Nation couple recently got married and then jetted off to Italy and Greece for a honeymoon, and the couple kept fans posted with the most delicious Italian and Greek cuisine they consumed on the trip.
Ashley and Jared met while on the beaches of Mexico while on season 2 of Bachelor in Paradise. After years of the will-they-won’t-they type of love, they finally became a couple and then returned to the same beaches of Mexico where they first met, and Jared proposed to Ashley. The two wed in an intimate ceremony in Rhode Island and there were plenty of Bachelor Nation stars in attendance. The elegant and romantic ceremony was held for 180 of the couple’s closest family, friends, and Bachelor in Paradise castmates. The wedding reception had plenty of delicious food items such as New England style hors d’oeuvres and cocktails inspired by their personalities, but that was just the beginning of the delicacies.
The real foodie experience came on their honeymoon. According to Us, the pair were in an airplane headed to Italy just 24 hours after saying “I do” on August 11. Jared documented the adventurous honeymoon with a video of them on the airplane, where he said, “She wanted to leave for our honeymoon the day after our wedding.” And his new bride replied with a laugh, “I’m sorry, I’m so crazy.” The duo landed and headed to Positano - a small village in southern Italy - where they dined on genuine Italian pesto pasta and pepperoni pizza. While in Italy, they also munched on pastries and jam and an afternoon cheese plate - doing as the Italians do. Ashley is seen in one Instagram story, saying, “Isn’t that what Italy is all about?” She shared a snap on her Instagram of her hanging out in the sunny Italian village of Positano, seen below:
They continued to eat their way through their trip; the newlyweds dined at a Michelin-starred restaurant and enjoyed a seven-course tasting menu - including a pepper-topped pasta. They then traveled to Casa Angelina, where Ashley dined on linguine with fresh clams and joked in the video, “In the words of Lumière, your dinner is served.” Of course, there were the cappuccinos in the morning for Jared and cocktails by the pool. Then, for the second leg of the honeymoon, the Bachelor in Paradise alumni headed to Greece, where Ashley got to experience the magic of genuine greek yogurt. She obviously was blown away by the yogurt, saying on the video, “This doesn’t taste like Oikos, or Chobani, or Dannon.”
The couple wasn’t shy about posting every detail about their amazing honeymoon - and after all the drama the Bachelor in Paradise stars had endured in their early years - it’s well deserved. Through the newlyweds’ Instagram stories, fans could see that Ashley and Jared looked very much in love, relaxed, and most importantly, full.
