Plan Together

All honeymoon planning guides will have this tip right at the top. Planning together for your honeymoon plays an important part in order to start your journey in life together on a romantic note. As a couple, the process of planning a honeymoon will be the first step where you start making decisions and get to know each other’s likes and dislikes in more detail. For example, if you love an adventure on vacation, and your new spouse loves to see historical, beautiful architecture when they travel, you can combine your ideas and look for honeymoon packages in Europe that are a perfect blend of adventure, and nature, architecture, and romance. When you’re planning together, make sure you tick off everything from your honeymoon planning checklist, and that you’re both equally involved in making these important decisions.

 

Read First-Hand Experiences

Reading first-hand experiences of other couples will help you to plan your honeymoon well. Lots of people love to capture all the memories of their honeymoon and once they’re back, will have lots of tips and hacks based on their own experience. Ask your friends, read travel blogs, and watch vlogs from people who have just come back from their honeymoon, especially if they made a similar trip to the one you think you would like to book for yourself, or have been to the destination you’re dreaming of. This will not only give you a real picture of the experience, but you will be able to avoid any mistakes that they made and be more aware of what you should and should not do on your honeymoon trip. Look out for travel experiences that will give you a new perspective, travel hacks, and a lot of tips that will enhance your honeymoon experience.

 

Set A Budget

Set a budget carefully when you plan your honeymoon. Look for options like hotel promotions to save yourself some money, which you can invest into an even better experience. For example, instead of a luxury hotel, book a romantic resort and spend the money you saved on an activity that you can do together.

 

Try to keep an average daily spend in mind, give yourself some extra room in the budget for unexpected issues or costs, and then book a package that fits into your budget. Here are a few things that you should take into account in your honeymoon budget planning:

• Flights (both ways)
• Accommodation
• Meals, snacks, drinks
• Sightseeing and activities
• Local transfers and other travel, like public transport and taxis
• Shopping
• Miscellaneous, such as souvenirs

Make sure you set a budget you can afford, so you don’t married life with large credit card debts!
