Choosing your honeymoon destination

In the midst of all your wedding planning, most couples also discover they’re doing vacation planning at the same time – for their honeymoon. We’ve got some tips to help you through the decision-making process.

Decide WHAT you want to do. Sit down together and talk about what sort of vacation you’re looking for. Is it relaxing all day every day on a warm beach? Exploring a new city? Hitting the slopes? Figuring out what you want to do will help you narrow down other possibilities.

Then you can start looking at WHERE you want to go.  Will you need a passport? Do you have the budget for airline travel? You can find both budget-conscious and luxury honeymoon choices no matter what you want to do. Is Fiji out of reach, but you still want beaches? Try North Carolina’s Outer Banks. Dreaming of a French getaway, but Paris or Nice is just too far? Quebec City is just a car ride away. You can be creative with your locations, if you plan ahead.

Remember your identification. If you’re planning on changing your name, remember that the name on your plane tickets needs to be the same as the name on your passport or driver’s license. Unless you’re postponing your honeymoon and you’ll have time to change all your documentation, make sure your reservations are in your maiden name.


Have fun. Celebrate! You just got married!
