Where are you going on Honeymoon?

Jaysmonkey, 2 January, 2014 at 14:10 Posted on Planning 0 37

We've finally booked our Honeymoon and I'm so very excited!

3 days in Singapore, 11 days in Bali - 7days by the beach (Tembok, we went for Black sand over white!) and 4days in the Mountains (Ubud) and then 2days in the air.

We fly just 2 days after we marry. ❤️

So lovely Hitchers, where are you going? or have you been? x

    Wow!

    I bet you're excited!

    We looked at that exact honeymoon, only in August the weather wouldn't have been kind to us, hence we had to look at weather friendly options for our chosen time of year!

    I hope you have an amazing time! x

    Wow, both of your honeymoons sound amazing.

    We're off to Mauritius for 2 weeks. We fly the day after the wedding so we won't have much time to sort our stuff out!

    We are spending 10 days in France, starting in Paris, then heading south for wine tasting region ? and finally a few days on the med coast.

    We have done lots of travelling as a couple but never been to France together - and it seemed both romantic and budget friendly!

    We are off to South Africa for 8 nights (3 in the Kruger, 3 in the Winelands and then onto Cape Town), and then 8 nights just chilling in Mauritius - SO excited! It is the most organised aspect of the whole wedding

    we are flying Tuesday after Saturday wedding so hopefully we get a little bit of time to recover post wedding and have a chance of packing all we need!

    We had the standard menu with local ingredients and it was the best meal we had in Bali!

    We're off to a luxury lodge in Fynn Valley Holidays on our mini-moon, for four nights the Monday after the wedding. Cannot wait for it, champagne in the hot tub looking out at the stars!!!!

    Then our 'maxi-moon', we're off to Bali too! Spending 3 days in Kuala Lumpur first, before flying to Bali to spend 10 nights in Sanur Beach. That will be 5.5 months after the wedding, in August.

    We're not having a Honeymoon. By September our 3 pet rats will be over 2 years old and we can't/won't leave them, so any Honeymoon will be put off probably till 2015. I'm not bothered, not a holiday person anyway!

    What a fabulous thread!

    I would love tto go somewhere hot with white sand and clear blue water but my biggest worry is our daughter.

    Ive never left her for longer than a weekend and really don't know what to do. One thought is to have a short break as a couple and then shortly afterwards go on a big family holiday abroad. Shes almost six and we've never been able to have a big holiday due to house moves and work related issues. What have others done?/planning to do? If you have children?

    Having issues with the OH at the moment in the form of him refusing to discuss the wedding as it is still over 2 years away, however we have already previously agreed on Japan for our honeymoon. It's somewhere we have both really wanted to visit. If we can afford it I'd like a week there and also a week in either Vietnam or Cambodia. Haven't even started researching yet though.

    That sounds like absolute bliss!

    We're off to Mexico - Riviera Maya for 2 weeks staying in the Catalunya Royal Tulum leaving 3 days after the wedding.

    The hotel looks lovely, it's right on the beach but has been built right by foresty areas so it's really peaceful and has amazing wildlife (judging by tripadvisor!)

    I can't wait, I need a break and a tan! ?

    Unfortunately due to finances we can't afford a honeymoon straight after the wedding Smiley sad However, to give us something to look forward to after the wedding we are going to have our honeymoon for our year anniversary. Just to give us more time to save up and go somewhere really special. So jealous of you all!

    Sounds great! We are thinking Las Vegas, New York and Antigua or St Lucia. Ideally l was hoping for Sri Lanka and Maldives but they are too far from where we are getting married in Las Vegas.

    I've not been to the Maldives but have been to Cuba and it's an amazing place - definitely worth a trip! We're hoping for a week in Scotland or Wales straight after the wedding for a nice relaxing get away. Then a few months after the wedding we're going on a big holiday with my sister and her husband (who both have a big birthday this year) - 3 or 4 nights in New York, followed by a 14 night Caribbean cruise. I've not had a 'sun' holiday for years and never with my OH so we're really looking forward to it.

    We're getting married abroad and doing a mini-moon in Rome straight after the wedding for a few days.

    OH is totally in charge of honeymoon plans. I know some things are in motion, but it's completely a surprise for me - little bit worried.

    Anyone considering Cuba - do it! We spent 4 days in Havana and 6 in Varadero and it was the best holiday I've ever been on.

    I'm way more excited about our honeymoon than our wedding! And I don't get to go until 2015! The worst part for me is that due to saving up for wedding and honeymoon I don't get a holiday this year. Which i know is not a major problem but travel is my hobby!

    So our honeymoon plan currently is flying into San Francisco and hiring a car and driving to Boston. 3 week long road trip! Going to random places in America that no one but us wants to see plus taking in some national parks etc. I spend hours googling things we should go and see!

    At one point I asked my partner if we could have the honeymoon before the wedding so we could go this year. But apparently that's not allowed! What a kill joy! Ha ha.

    We went to Sri Lanka & Maldives, was amazing.

    Went to Cuba this year, Havana was great but Guardalavaca was dire. Go adults only in Havana or Varadero and upgrade the hotel as much as you can!!
