\"Planning

Planning Your Honeymoon: Domestic or International?<\/h2>\n

First things first, where are you going? Do you want to stay in the country or would you rather explore something a bit outside of what you\u2019re used to?<\/p>\n

Some find it more romantic to escape to a foreign country and immerse themselves within a new culture together. There\u2019s something more secluded and connecting about an experience as such. But others may want to just let loose and have fun in a more comfortable setting, which would be found easier in a home country.<\/p>\n

There are benefits to both kinds of adventures but things you have to consider as well. Do you both have a passport? Have you traveled together before? Before you dive into planning we\u2019ve got lots of tips and ideas to consider while making your destination selection. Take a peek and have fun mapping our your journey!<\/p>\n

10 Tips for a Great Honeymoon<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Decide on a budget. Figure out how much you have to spend beforehand, and perhaps count on some wedding-gift money to add to your stake.<\/li>\n
  2. Discuss your idea of the perfect vacation. Who likes sports? Who likes sun? Who wants to explore an exotic destination? Make a list of the things that mean the most to you, and compare notes. Marriage is going to call for lots of compromise, and this is the place to start.<\/li>\n
  3. Pick your destination. If you’re on a budget, keep in mind that many places adjust their rates seasonally. For instance, it’s cheaper to visit the Caribbean in warm weather, and ski resorts that offer a lot of activities (but no snow) in summer will also be less expensive.<\/li>\n
  4. Use a travel agent. It doesn’t cost any more, and he or she can make all the arrangements without you having to worry about them. Plus, if something goes wrong, you’ll have someone you know to call.<\/li>\n
  5. Passport. If you’re going abroad, leave plenty of time to make sure your passport is current and you have any visas required. To avoid confusion, women are advised to make reservations under their maiden name and wait until returning to legally change a name after marriage.<\/li>\n
  6. “It’s Our Honeymoon”. Here’s a great tip for getting extra special care. Anytime you make a reservation (no matter the event) let them know it is your honeymoon. You may get upgraded to a better room at no charge, receive a welcome bottle of champagne, and who knows what else.<\/li>\n
  7. Protect your privacy. No, not online privacy. We’re talking about making sure you pick a hotel where there aren’t hundreds of kids running around. You want some romance and privacy on this trip.<\/li>\n
  8. Take more money than you think you’ll need. You may pay for everything up front, but things like tips, watersports, local restaurants are all things that you will want to take advantage of that you’ll need cash for.<\/li>\n
  9. Schedule “do nothing” time. This is your honeymoon. Relax.<\/li>\n
  10. Be considerate of your spouse’s wishes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    5 Great Honeymoon Ideas<\/h2>\n

    Before you figure out a destination, you may want to decide on the vibe you want. Relax at the beach or get adventurous in a foreign country, here are 5 great honeymoon ideas to get the wheels turning.<\/p>\n

    The Beach Honeymoon<\/h3>\n

    Seemingly the most popular of the bunch, the beach honeymoon is all about surf, sands and sun. Take in the rays and spend your days relaxing seaside at any tropical location.<\/p>\n

    From a Jamaican, full-service resort where you can focus on the music to seeing the gorgeous coast in the Spain or checking out Bondi beach in Australia, there are so many incredible places to take a classic beach vacation to an entirely new level. Hawaii, Bora Bora or even Mexican, they\u2019re all spots that deserve a look or two before you make your final choice for an oceanview.<\/p>\n

    CTA Area<\/p>\n

    The Adventure Honeymoon<\/h3>\n

    Maybe you\u2019re more of an adventurous couple and want to make this trip filled with experiences that you\u2019ll remember for the rest of your life. If that sounds like you two, maybe you should check out destinations that are a bit more offbeat or at least filled with excursions that will get the adrenaline pumping.<\/p>\n

    Try looking into all of the fun adventures that Queensland, New Zealand has to offer. The Rocky Mountains could be a great destination to try or checking out tons of spots in Australia as well. The rain forest of Costa Rica doesn\u2019t sound too bad either.<\/p>\n

    CTA Area<\/p>\n

    The Intimate Honeymoon<\/h3>\n

    Once all the wedding festivities die down, you may just want to take it easy. Reconnect and relax within a more intimate setting. Pick a new place, get good rest, sightsee and, of course, make sure there are lots of places to indulge in drinks and good dishes too.<\/p>\n

    Pick a destination that has some secluded spots or resorts to enjoy. Bora Bora, Fiji or even Sonoma, California could be locations to take a better look at.<\/p>\n

    CTA Area<\/p>\n

    The \u201cWorld Traveller\u201d Honeymoon<\/h3>\n

    Of course, if you both have the travel bug you can take a more exploratory approach to your honeymoon. Grab a backpack and do what you\u2019ve always wanted to do by traveling the globe – or at least a big part of it.<\/p>\n

    Whether it\u2019s a cross-country road trip or a perfectly planned backpacking adventure around Europe, there are lots of areas to explore with your new husband or wife. Thankfully, there are tons of \u201croutes\u201d and help you can find online to make this idea go off without a hitch.<\/p>\n

    \"Honeymoon

    Honeymoon Milestones: What to Do, & When to Do It<\/h2>\n

    12 Months Before Departure<\/h3>\n
      \n
    • Determine your budget. Decide how much money you can spend on the honeymoon. This will help you narrow down your choices.<\/li>\n
    • Use a travel agent. Trust us, you have enough to do. Travel specialists can make life way easier.<\/li>\n
    • Decide on your destination. No brainer, right? As soon as you get engaged, you should start thinking about where you want to honeymoon.<\/li>\n
    • Book your flights. Booking early will also help you get a nonstop flight.<\/li>\n
    • Book your hotel. Nail down your accommodations early, so you can focus on the more minor details<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      6 Months Before Departure<\/h3>\n
        \n
      • Make hard-to-get dinner reservation. There’s always the hard to get into awesome restaurant. Book it now.<\/li>\n
      • Schedule transportation. Once you know your itinerary, organize any additional transportation. Trains, buses and transfers can all be booked this far out.<\/li>\n
      • Renew your passport. The turnaround for getting or renewing a passport can be as quick as a month, but it\u2019s better to have this squared away.<\/li>\n
      • Apply for any visas. Know what the country you\u2019re visiting requires, and take care of it.<\/li>\n
      • Purchase travel insurance. Travel insurance plans can cover everything from illness to acts of God. Given the cost of most honeymoons, it is important to get coverage just in case.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        2 Months Before<\/h3>\n
          \n
        • Plan your activities.You don\u2019t want to plan too much, and you may just want to sleep on the beach. But if you are going on a more cultural trip, go ahead and buy tickets to museums, or book a trip to a nearby architectural site. You won\u2019t waste time waiting in lines or figuring out details once you\u2019re there.<\/li>\n
        • Make a quick mental packing list. Need new luggage? Or a camera? If you determine in advance that you need expensive items, you might ask for them as wedding gifts. Or you may just realize you need to go bikini shopping.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          30 Days Prior to Departure<\/h3>\n
            \n
          • Finalize transportation. Reserve seats on trains if you\u2019re going to be moving around a country. Finalize your itinerary or confirm your car rental. If you are driving in a foreign country, get an international driving permit (available at AAA offices).<\/li>\n
          • Book spa appointments or other activities. If you\u2019re heading to a mega, all-inclusive resort, you may want to prebook spa treatments and special activities, like sailing trips or other excursions, that might fill up. Call and ask the resort concierge for advice.<\/li>\n
          • Fill prescriptions. Make sure you have full bottles of any medications you take regularly.<\/li>\n
          • Shop. Now\u2019s the time to shop for clothes\u2014not the week before the wedding. Don\u2019t forget things like voltage converters or specific garments (like a head covering for a place of worship) you\u2019ll need for some countries.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            14 Days Prior to Departure<\/h3>\n
              \n
            • Confirm everything. Call the hotel and any restaurants to confirm your reservations.<\/li>\n
            • Make copies of your documents. Have copies of your passport, visa, credit cards, driver\u2019s license, and any other important documents in case something is lost or stolen. Leave a set with someone at home and pack one in your suitcase.<\/li>\n
            • Write down important phone numbers. If you are visiting a foreign country, know the location of the closest U.S. embassy. Also, have the phone numbers of your credit card companies so you can quickly call if there are any problems.<\/li>\n
            • Get some local currency. You can easily get cash from an ATM in any country, but having a little bit of money on hand (about the equivalent of $200) is a good idea\u2014even if it\u2019s just to take a cab to the hotel without having to stop at an ATM in the airport.<\/li>\n
            • Pack. Don\u2019t wait until the week before the wedding, when you\u2019ll be extremely busy. Pack what you can ahead of time. You can throw in toiletries at the last minute.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              7 Days to Go!<\/h3>\n
                \n
              • Confirm the hotel. Again. It can\u2019t hurt. Just to give you peace of mind.<\/li>\n
              • Check the weather. If your destination is having an unseasonably cold week, you may want to throw in another sweater.<\/li>\n
              • Pack a carry-on for the flight. Have essentials, like your passport, cell phone charger, and anything else you tend to forget, ready to go.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                The Day Before!<\/h3>\n
                  \n
                • Double-check the necessities. Again make sure everything from the passport to the plane tickets are accounted for.<\/li>\n
                • Leave behind contact info. Make sure family members back home know where you\u2019ll be and now to get in touch with you in case of an emergency – this is especially important if you\u2019ll be going outside the country.<\/li>\n
                • Touch-in with your helpers. Go over the essentials with your loved ones. Whoever is taking care of the dog, grabbing your mail, taking your trash out or making sure everything at the house is kept intact, go over whatever needs to be done and send them a nice thank you (and bring something back too!).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                  \"Packing

                  Packing For Your Honeymoon<\/h2>\n

                  • 3-5 mix and match bikini pieces, depending on the destination of your trip. Even if you\u2019re heading for snowy mountains, chances are you\u2019ll have a pool or hot tub available!<\/li>\n
