<prompt> Human: Hey guys, first post to rpersonalfinance here!I am recently engaged and soon to be married, with that comes a lot of costs. In particular, the venue already booked with two deposits down and the honeymoon still undecided where we want to go.I have seen the Chase Sapphire Reserve Credit Cardpop up on reddit recently and I decided to look into using its rewards to cover or at least drastically help cover the cost of the honeymoon.TL;DR on the card 100,000 points 1,500 if booked through Chase in travel if you rack up a 4,000 balance in the first 3 months. 450 annual fee. 300 annual travel credit. 3x points on travel and restaurants world wide, with 1 point per 1 spent on all other purchases.I think I would get approved. I have 3 credit cards: Visa Kroger card, Mastercard Sallie Mae famous on reddit for 5 cash back from Amazon, Discover IT card. And I have a Fico score north of 770.My plan: Put the 4,000 from the venue on the Chase card to get the 1,500 in travel. Then use the 1,500 300 in annual travel credit to pay for the honeymoon. The downside I see here is obviously the 450 annual fee. The way I see it is Im still making out 1,350 ahead 1,500 300 - 450 at the end of the day.Can you guys help explain the proscons of this, as well as would you do this if you were in my shoes? Also, how much do you think this will hurt my credit if I cancel the card once the wedding expenses are paid off?Assistant: You can pay for all of these expenses at the end of the statement period?Human: I dont believe you need to pay off the balance to get the bonus. I see what you mean in terms of the APR and racking up a huge interest payment, but if it means getting my honeymoon for free, it seems worth it to me to dive deep into my savings and pay the 4,000 upfront. Then re-cooperate my savings later on. What do you think?  <response>: Definitely pay that shit off bef9re any interest charges or the worth 9f the card drops dramatically.
