3 Tips for Planning Your Honeymoon

As if you don't already have enough on your plate with planning a beautiful wedding in Colorado Springs, you also have to plan your honeymoon as well. While it's customary for a groom to plan the honeymoon, you are joining your lives together and it only makes sense to make major decisions together based on your finances and preferences. Here are a few things to keep in mind as you start booking hotels and transportation.

Decide How Long You Can Escape For

This will be one of the first things you and your future spouse will decide about the trip. If you can only take a few days that will limit the amount of travel you can incorporate, whereas if you have more than a week you can generally make it to most destinations and enjoy them for a few days before having to head out.

Set A Budget

This is the second most important thing you can decide when thinking about your honeymoon. You will already be spending a lot for the wedding, and then on top of that, you'll be spending money on a large traveling adventure. Keep in mind that there are many ways to plan a honeymoon, and you can always take a small one now, and plan a larger one for your 6 month or one year anniversary. Once you've set a budget, you can choose the destination, activities, places to stay and eat.

Choose a Location

There are a few ways to do this, you can either work together to decide on a place to visit, or you can let your groom surprise you with a surprise destination! For many brides, this is too much suspense and they don't want to not know what to pack - but it can be a fun surprise. Do you want to travel out of the country or stay in the states? Do you want to take your honeymoon immediately after the wedding or are you going to give yourself a few days to rest? These are all important things to think about before picking a location. You can also think of your lifestyle. If you both are adventurous and love to hike, bike and swim,  a tropical cruise with excursions could be the place for you. If you and your hubby to be like to explore historical landmarks and delicious cuisine, maybe a European tour would be up your alley. Of course, should you decide to stay in the states, Colorado has been considered a wonderful vacation location!
