You want this trip to be one of the most memorable in your lifetime, filled with warm and loving memories.

Couples first must decide when to take their trip. For years it was tradition to leave right after the wedding. Couples are more practical today. Weddings are major events in many cases, so it's natural to expect a letdown once the excitement is over. Rather than going during the post-wedding blue period, more and more people opt for waiting a month or two. This gives them something to look forward to
down the road a bit. Instead of leaving on their big adventure, they often go away for the week- end together right after the wedding. Think of it as a "mini-moon".

As you begin planning the honeymoon you first step is to determine how long you want your honeymoon to last.

If you lose a few days to jet-lag you may feel as if your trip is over before it's even begun. For short vacations of a week, the Caribbean is one of the most ideal vacation spots destinations. Many of the different islands
offer fantastic package deals. These exclusive resorts offer a complete vacation package: food, drinks, entertainment, and a fabulous location, all for a very reasonable price. The Caribbean offers newlyweds a chance to bask in the warm sun and enjoy each other's company in a beautiful setting. The Caribbean is the ideal location winter honeymoons.

If you prefer not to travel far, find a cozy bed and breakfast near your home. Many offer spa packages, including massage and other pampering. A getaway such as this is a super way to relax and enjoy one another's company.

If you are lucky enough to have two or more weeks to go away on your honeymoon, there are so many fabulous destinations around the world the possibilities will seem endless.
