Here are a few tips on when to go, what to do and how to save for one’s blissful journey to the start of a newly wedded life:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Travel Destinations<\/b>. If you can’t come to a consensus, a travel agent is well-experienced in designing a custom itinerary that will make you both happy.<\/li>\n
  • Travel Budget.\u00a0<\/b>Knowing your budget is an important detail, and so is sticking to it. Consider booking an all-inclusive vacation so you will know in advance how much you will spend on food, drinks and entertainment. With an all-inclusive, whether it is a resort or a cruise vacation, you may also be able to obtain bonus amenities such as spa and tour credits.<\/li>\n
  • Planning Timeline<\/b>. Booking your honeymoon package nine to 10 months in advance is ideal, but begin researching destinations a year out. Specialty excursions and the most highly-desired rooms at hotels and resorts fill up quickly.<\/li>\n
  • Travel Seasons.<\/b>\u00a0Spring and fall \u2013 known as “shoulder seasons” \u2013 are perfect for traveling to certain destinations. Airlines often have the best availability and many hotels and cruise lines offer discounts and value-added packages. The money you save on a flight can go toward an upgrade, such as a private car that will whisk you away from the airport to the hotel, while others wait in line.<\/li>\n
  • Use a Travel Agent.<\/b>\u00a0A travel expert can help you secure VIP add-ons, such as a room upgrade, access to private lounges or dinner reservations at the most sought after restaurant \u2013 all at no additional charge to you. They also share insider advice like the need for visas or vaccinations, the best day for certain tours, how to avoid crowds, and whether it’s best to use cash or than credit.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
