thanks to the folks at the American Society of Travel Agents, is a list of ideas to plan a stress-free honeymoon.
• Begin early and share the planning. To ensure that both parties enjoy the honeymoon, couples should consider making all the decisions together.
• Define “Ideal.” If just one person will be doing the planning, he or she shouldn’t assume that because they have always dreamt of honeymooning in a tropical paradise their soon-to-be-spouse shares that dream. Consider these questions as soon as honeymoon talks begin:
o What is most important? Suntan lotion, sand and surf or the privacy and seclusion a cozy mountain retreat?
o Are you looking to experience new cultures or do you just want to get away from it all?
o Are you more interested in going around the corner or around the world?
o Do you want to spend more on the wedding or the honeymoon?
o What sounds better: a cruise, a package vacation or an all-inclusive resort, something tailored just for you?
