Wedding Honeymoon Ideas
Stellar Exchange
Make overseas purchases with your credit card. You'll often get the lowest possible exchange rate, and you'll be protected from unauthorized charges. Just make sure your bank won't charge you for spending abroad.
Call of the Wild
Get in touch with nature on your honeymoon—whale-watch in Alaska, go on safari in Africa, ride elephants in India, or see kangaroos in Australia.
Well-Packed
Make a list of each item that you want to bring on your honeymoon, and cross it off as you pack it. That way, you'll be sure to bring all of your essentials.
Spread the News
While making reservations for your honeymoon, and during the trip itself, make sure anyone and everyone knows you're newlyweds. You never know who'll throw in an extra complementary champagne and strawberries.
The New Walking Tour
Ditch the canned chatter of a tour guide in favor of your iPod and a downloadable walking tour for popular destinations such as Paris, Rome and Vienna from Ijourneys.com. They’re chock-full of history, culture and entertaining stories.
The Life Aquatic
If sailing, snorkeling and scuba lessons are among your honeymoon must-have experiences, use the Pentax Optio W30 waterproof digital camera to capture your ocean adventures. Not only do you not have to worry about it getting damaged on a splashy off-shore excursion, but you can also use it to snap photos up to 10 feet below the surface. ($300; pentaximaging.com).
Pre-Weddingmoons
Unwind before the big day by booking relaxing long-weekend getaways (spa, B&B, beach, etc.).
Mist Opportunity
En route to your honeymoon in Hawaii is no time to catch a cold. So share a breath of fresh air with No Cooties Travel Spray's purifying essential oils and antibacterial agents, $9, Flight 001, flight001.com.
Spa Secret
Why waste half of your honeymoon winding down? To enjoy your vacation right from the start, book a massage for the day you arrive. Not only will it help melt away any lingering wedding stress but it will get rid of those pesky airplane aches too.
Honeymoon Condo
If you or your new husband like to cook, consider renting a condo or other space that includes a kitchen. Your candle-lit dinners will be that much more romantic if you never have to leave the room.Your Own Row
In an aircraft with three-seat configurations, up the odds of having your own row by choosing a window for you and an aisle for him; you can always swap with the person in the middle.Discount Destinations
Let off-season deals guide your honeymoon choice. In fall, save up to 20 percent off Hawaii hotel rooms; in summer, head to the Caribbean or Mexico to save up to 40 percent off accommodations.
Shop 'Til You Drop
Leave room in your luggage to bring home new purchases. If you're going to a fabulous shopping destination like Paris or Milan, bring an extra bag.
Cheap Seats
Fly on a weekday instead of a weekend to cut airfare costs to and from your honeymoon destination.
Bodacious Bags
Make an entrance with the stylish red rolling suitcase and hat box from Swany (walkinbag.com).
