<p><strong>First Things First – Define Your Ideal Honeymoon</strong><br />
  Most   people grow up with a preconceived notion of what an ideal honeymoon should   involve. However, a bride’s idea of tropical paradise and a groom’s idea of a   ski resort could conflict. </p>
<p>Consider these questions as soon as honeymoon talks begin:</p>
<ul>
  <li>What is most important? Sun and surf or the privacy of a cozy mountain   retreat? </li>
  <li>Are you looking to experience new cultures in distant lands or do you just   want to get away from it all? </li>
  <li>Do you want to go around the corner or around the world? </li>
  <li>Do you want to spend more on the wedding or the honeymoon? </li>
  <li>Niagara Falls like your parents? The Caribbean like your friends? Europe   like your ancestors? </li>
  <li>What sounds better: a cruise, a package vacation or an all-inclusive resort? </li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Types of Honeymoons</strong><br />
  Unless your dream destination has   already been set in stone, first decide what type of vacation you want and then   narrow down your list of destinations accordingly. </p>
<p>Resorts are the most popular honeymoon destinations, for they transport you   into another world for a miraculous escape from the daily grind. Often set in   the most picturesque places in the world, they include pools, private beaches   and golf courses, as well as culinary delights and relaxing spas. </p>
<p>All-inclusive resorts streamline the enjoyment process by including   everything — your room, transfers, recreational facilities, meals and drinks —   all in one price. Without the worries of wondering how much everything little   thing will cost, you are free to live the high life and experience everything   you want as often as you want it.</p>
<p>If an all-inclusive resort sounds tempting but too stationary, consider   taking a cruise. Cruises are floating resorts that whisk you away to one exotic   port after another. </p>
<p>Looking for adventure? Ask us to help find you and your fiance' some outdoor   exhilaration! Whether it’s white-water rafting in Colorado, hiking through the   Alps or taking an African safari, sharing the experience will become a vital   bond you both will share forever. </p>
<p>Cultural and historical trips are fascinating and romantic ways to reconnect   with the past. Visit a famous European city — Paris, London, Rome…the list goes   on — and inhale the culture, soak in the sights and experience the art of   living. Or dive into the rich history of the old world country from which your   family originated. The unique perspective you gain will become a central root   for your future family tree.</p>
<p><strong>Want Stress Free? Leave it to a Professional</strong><br />
  We can   save you money as well as time — two enormous factors for a couple trying to   plan a wedding and a honeymoon simultaneously. We specialize in providing   personalized suggestions to suit your interests and your budget!</p>
<p><strong>Begin early and share the planning.</strong> To ensure that you   both enjoy the honeymoon, make all the decisions together. </p>
<p><strong>Make time for yourselves.</strong> Pad your honeymoon schedule   with generous amounts of free time, for a rushed and overly organized honeymoon   might feel too much like your wedding. Instead, plan a few enjoyable activities   and leave lots of opportunities to just enjoy each other's company.</p>
<p><strong>Set a tentative budget.</strong> Talk about your expectations and   priorities from the very beginning and decide what you might splurge on and   where you might cut corners. </p>
<p><strong>Splurge on whatever accommodations you choose.</strong> No matter   what type of vacation package you choose, you will spend an enormous amount of   time in your room or cabin. Make it special — make it unforgettable. </p>
<p><strong>Use your maiden name.</strong> Unless you’re taking a delayed   honeymoon, you won’t have time to change the name on your passport and driver’s   license. Use your maiden name on visas, airline tickets, etc., so they match as   it appears on your official documents. </p>
<p><strong>Tell the world you’re on your honeymoon.</strong> Stand up on   every chair, on every rock and shout, “We’re on our honeymoon!” Everyone from   strangers to airlines to hotels will take notice and cheerfully offer you such   special treatment such as complimentary champagne in-flight or a gift basket in   your room. Go ahead, it’s your honeymoon!</p>
