After the frantic pace of organising your wedding, your honeymoon is
your first big chance to relax and to spend quality time alone
together.
For a week or two, you can forget the pressures of work, the mortgage and the rat race.
Choose your honeymoon together. Within the bounds of what you can
afford, it should be your dream destination, a place you both have
always wanted to go.
You will both be exhausted after the whirlwind of the wedding and may
need to wind down from the tension. Sleep in, enjoy each other's
company and have lots of lazy mornings. And, make sure no-one from home
can contact you.
If you are looking for a romantic location, the most popular choice
with newlyweds is a beachside honeymoon on a tropical island.
There is nothing more romantic than exploring deserted beaches
together, relaxing in the shade of a palm tree, snorkeling amongst
brightly coloured tropical fish and corals, and at the end of the day
sipping pre-dinner cocktails as you watch the sun set.
If lazing under a palm tree is not for you consider skiing in New
Zealand, discover Tasmania's history and natural beauty or visit the
sights in Europe or the United States.
If the honeymoon you have always wanted is out of your price range then
register with a honeymoon registry. Your guests will be able to
contribute to the cost of your honeymoon, providing you with a special
present that you will value for years.
A package honeymoon is a popular choice with many couples. After
worrying about every last detail of your wedding, you don?t want to
have to think about booking tickets, confirming flights, transfers and
finding a hotel.
A package gives you the chance to relax and let someone else worry about the arrangements.
A fantastic honeymoon can sustain a marriage for years to come with good memories and great photographs.
You should look back on the honeymoon as a special time for both of you - one of the best times in your marriage.
Origins of the honeymoon
In early Northern Europe, newly married couples drank a fermented honey
drink, known as metheglen for thirty days or until the moon waned. This
time became known as the honeymoon.
In ancient times when the bride was captured, the groom hid his bride
to prevent her angry relatives from finding her. From this came the
concept of the honeymoon trip.
