The Honeymoon
Book your honeymoon through a professional travel agent for the best information on the newest facilities and the greatest buys. Consider working with a travel agency that has a wedding registry. That way, guest can make gift donations toward your trip. Determine your budget and length of time you'll be able to honeymoon. If you will need passports and visas, be sure to request these at least 4-6 weeks prior to the honeymoon. Also, the bride must obtain hers in her maiden name. Be sure that airline tickets and other reservations are in your maiden name also so they match your passport or visa.
Consider the climate and activities when determining your destination. Don't over schedule activities. Make sure you spend some time just relaxing together. Most important, get away for a least a few days. This time spent together is far more important than where you go.
