You know what's easier to plan than a wedding? A vacation! Let's tackle this with ample time to spread the word because your guests will LOVE contributing to your honeymoon fund via your registry! Plus dreaming about a honeymoon can be a timely daydream to boost your mood and get something checked off the list.
Honeymoon Planning Essentials
At least you know the guest list this time :)
When: Right after the wedding? The following week? The following year? How long can you sneak away?
Where: Domestic or International? Driving a few hours or flying far away? Consider weather, and your greatest daydream destinations.
How Much: Honeymoon Funds can help so can looking for deals on flights, or keeping it to driveable destinations. Luckily you should expect cash donations on your wedding- easy to stick in your wallet and use for your honeymoon.
Inspiration: Buy a physical guide book (hello Rick Steeves! or google best destinations based on the month you are looking to get away).
Final note: Don't voluntell your fiance its their job to plan some perfect surprise honeymoon (I see this a lot). It's usually said with a fair bit of resentment "they are in charge of the honeymoon planning because I have done everything else for this wedding..."
Better for you and your future spouse to regroup as a team to assess the tasks needed in the final months leading up to the wedding. We'll talk about my advice for how to reassess roles, and enable support.
Keep planning!
