Planning a wedding includes what happens after the big day, too. You’ve thrown the celebration of a lifetime; it’s time to treat yourselves with time to rest and revel in being newlyweds!

Weddings can be expensive, and it might be tempting to short-change your honeymoon. Reconsider before you do! This is your opportunity to put a pause on life and celebrate the commitment you’ve just made, so it’s worth taking one if your budget allows.

Start by writing independent wish lists for your trip. Include things like: • Where you want to go • What you want to see • What activities you want to do • How long it will take to get there • How much time you can take off Once you’ve made your lists, share them with each other and compare. Will your vacation be relaxing or active? Will it be on a resort or a ship? Planning your trip together will ensure that both your wishes are met.

prepare beforehand

You may know you need a passport, but what about medical needs and vaccinations? Some countries have requirements you’ll need to meet before traveling, and it’s better to be safe than sick during your honeymoon.

Also do your research on any resorts or excursions you plan to book. Make sure you know exactly what’s included in an all-inclusive package; oftentimes things like meal and alcohol packages are extra. Double-check transfers, taxes, and gratuities, too.

use a pro

Make those dreams of romance and bliss a reality by hiring a certified travel agent. A professional is familiar with “everything travel,” which will save you time and money by avoiding hidden fees, poor service, or unpleasant surprises.

Travel agents know all the ins and outs of multiple destinations, and will have invaluable, local advice to make your honeymoon as safe and enjoyable as possible. They’re also able to get you discounts on lodging, airfare, and more so you can afford your dream trip.
