Honeymoon couples often focus on their wedding and reception plans more than on their honeymoon plans.   However, the honeymoon is the time to relax and enjoy the newlywed experience.   

The key to a successful honeymoon is to determine exactly the type of experience you and your companion desire.    You may want luxury, adventure, or just some quiet laid-back place.    So try to identify your travel style and match your destination accordingly.

Here are the most popular honeymoon destinations:

 

Hawaii Jamaica Mexico Tahiti St. Lucia Italy U.S. Virgin Islands Aruba Las Vegas Bermuda Bahamas Fiji Belize

Colorado Costa Rica Florida Aruba Cape Cod St Lucia France Amsterdam Spain Alaska Portugal Vienna

 

 

Planning a honeymoon is important in order to make the most memorable and unforgettable experience.     There are many different environments’; mountains, beaches, deserts, international or maybe a little of each.   There are resorts, tours, cruises, all-inclusive or just independent travel.    What ever the destination, the planning should start several months in advance.

One thing is certain, a honeymoon is for the couple and both should contribute to the planning.    Typically each person will have a different idea of their perfect honeymoon activities and destination.    One may want to relax on the beach while the other backpacking in the mountains would be the first choice.

The time of year can also impact the destination choice.    It is usually best to pick an off season time to get the lowest cost and avoid the many tourists.     This may also impact the wedding date, so planning is very important.    People would generally try to avoid the peak season to make the honeymoon the most enjoyable.    Off peak times may mean more risk of bad weather where some activities are not possible, so you need to determine the priorities.
