Wedding Planning Guide: Top 3 Honeymoon Tips

As a once in a lifetime trip, your honeymoon destination and itinerary should definitely be an amalgamation of your combined interests and pleasures. Globetrotting as a newly wedded couple is an exciting and romantic experience, and creating a tailormade package can only heighten and enhance the mood of your escape.

With so many standard package holidays on the market, combined with a couple’s probable lack of experience in honeymooning, how exactly do you create a perfectly sensual sojourn for you and your spouse?

1.     Don’t Bust the Budget

As with all other aspects of your wedding, set a budget for your honeymoon and choose your break based on this. Although restricting yourself financially can seem to take the fun out of the selection process, it will ensure that you don’t overspend, leaving you short for other nuptial fundamentals.

Honeymoon gift lists are a superb option for couples who have their heart set on an extravagant affair. Use the services of a travel company which specialises in bespoke luxury travel at great prices, to set up a wedding gift account, allowing your friends and family to contribute to your fun in the sun.

In addition to your own savings, this can be added to an existing booking or a new booking, to enable you and your partner to take the holiday you have been dreaming of.

2.     Do It Your Way

Although the standard honeymooning image is of endless palm fringed beaches, sprinkled with cocktails at sunset, not every post-ceremony stint has to fit into this box. Rather than booking your honeymoon with a high street holiday agency, look online at specialists in tailormade luxury travel and create the ideal honeymoon for you and your loved one.

Whether you opt for a beach break, adventure holiday, stint in the city, or even a safari getaway, honeymooning is all about embracing your union as two suited and unique individuals. Let this shine through in your travel itinerary and base your break on your fused passions.

Live the high life in Las Vegas before heading south for a week or two in Hawaii, discover Down Under, or relax in Mauritius after a spectacular safari experience in Africa. Whatever you do, do it your way.

3.     Be Diligent with Details

There are a number of factors to your honeymoon booking to consider before finalising any details. First and foremost, be sure to book your honeymoon in the names that correspond with your identification. It is tempting to show off your newly married Mr & Mrs status, however this will cause issues at all points during your journey, and you may be refused travel.

In addition, do some research into where to go and when. If your wedding falls during your dream destination’s rainy season, you may want to consider an alternative, or take a belated honeymoon a little further down the line.

With so much to plan for your big day, delegate some duties and let a specialist travel company take the lead with your honeymoon plans. It goes without saying that your input is required, but following this consultation, let a team of experts make your honeymooning haven a reality.
