Choosing the perfect honeymoon destination can be challenging, especially with so many amazing options.

Figure out your preferences


Before you start planning, sit down with your partner and determine what you want out of your honeymoon. Do you crave relaxation, or do you seek adventure? Maybe a bit of both? What you want out of your trip will definitely help you understand the types of places you’ll look for. If you’re hoping for relaxation, a cozy cabin or a beachy bungalow could be great options. If adventure is calling, an apartment deep in a foreign city or a stay in a remote village could make for incredible memories.




Consider your budget


Once you’ve figured out what hopes you have for your getaway, you’ll want to set a budget that reflects you and your partner’s specific financial situation. This will help you determine how much you can spend on your trip, which will start narrowing down your options. Consider budget categories like flight tickets, lodging, food, and souvenirs. Stick to your budget as best as you can!


Don’t forget about jet lag


Jet lag is a real thing, and can be super debilitating. The last thing you want is to spend your honeymoon feeling exhausted. But don’t cancel your flights yet! If you can, add an extra day or two to the beginning of your trip to account for any needed rest. Or, if you’d like, you can try to adjust to your destination’s time zone before you leave, if you’re not heading out right after your wedding.


Diversify your destinations


There are many different ways to relax, and many different ways to adventure! In the beginning stages of planning your honeymoon, look into a bunch of different options. This will help you realize what’s out there, so you won’t miss out on something truly incredible. Once you have a few options that fit your budget and your preferences, research, research, research. Pay attention to how you feel about each option, and then pick one that you both feel the best about.



Check for special deals and perks


Many hotels, resorts, and travel companies offer special promotions for newlyweds on their honeymoon! Maybe you’ll be able to stay in a beautiful honeymoon suite, or enjoy a free dinner to celebrate your love. You can save money on some wonderful experiences, so make sure to check if your destination has any honeymoon packages or promotions that you can take advantage of.


Remember what’s most important


At the end of the day, your honeymoon is about connecting with your favorite person. If you’re feeling stressed about it, consider taking a step back and a deep breath. No matter what, you’re starting a new life with the one you love. With this in mind, we know you’ll plan a getaway that will only strengthen your bond.
