Alternative Ideas For Your Honeymoon

These days, you don’t have to head to a Caribbean Island to enjoy your honeymoon. There are lots of different ways you can celebrate the start of your life together. You and your spouse are unique, so why settle for a traditional, generic honeymoon?

Here, you’ll discover some great alternative ideas for your honeymoon to help make it that little bit extra-special.

Why settle for one honeymoon when you can have two?



One of the most recent honeymoon trends is to take not one, but two honeymoons. Couples are starting to treat themselves to a mini-break before their actual honeymoon begins. However, we’re not talking about enjoying a mini-break and then jetting off to your main honeymoon destination. Instead, couples are having a mini honeymoon if they need to postpone their main honeymoon for a later date.

So, you could choose to book a small minimoon and then save up for an extravagant, longer honeymoon later in the year.

Travel in style and luxury



Your honeymoon isn’t just about the destination, it’s about the travel too! So, why not opt to splash out on your honeymoon by booking luxury travel? It could be a private jet to take you to your destination, or if you’re having a nearby honeymoon, why not opt for luxury car hire?

If you pay a little bit extra to travel in style and luxury, you’ll get off to a fantastic start on your honeymoon. You’ll feel extra-relaxed, refreshed and it’s something that will add to the honeymoon experience.

Head off on a couple’s road trip



A road trip may not be the first thing that springs to mind when you think of a honeymoon. However, there are ways to make it more romantic. Road trips can actually be an awesome way to spend your honeymoon, you just need to make sure you’re well prepared.

Why not book luxury hotels along the way to make it extra-special? You could also make it your mission to check out as many posh restaurants as you can along the way. Road trips can be as simple or as luxurious as you want them to be. You could even choose to hire out a luxury car to take you on the trip if you don’t want to use your own.

Consider Air BnB



When it comes to honeymoon accommodation, you may want to stray from the luxury hotels and couples’ resorts and book an Air BnB. Not only is this often cheaper, but you’ll also find a huge choice of unique properties you can stay at. They offer a home from home experience too so you’re sure to have an enjoyable stay. Tell the host you’re on your honeymoon and they may even throw in a special celebration package.

These are just some of the different ways you can spend your honeymoon. Whichever one you choose, all that matters is you get to spend quality time with your new spouse.

  2. Air BnB sounds like a great alternative to an expensive luxury hotel. There are some amazing places too just as good as hotels in regards to quality.

  3. I don't like doing things normally so we had a week's pre-honeymoon on our own. A week with friends and family who joined us for our South African wedding the week after, and then a week afterwards on our own travelling around again. It was amazing! :)

  4. What great ideas! A road trip sounds like so much fun! We went to Spain with our children for our honeymoon, our daughter was only 12 weeks old at the time!

  5. I was desperate to visit South Africa for our honeymoon, but sadly Corfu was all we could afford - we loved it anyway, of course. I really need to try an Air BNB

  6. I'd love to have a small mini moon just after the wedding then a bigger honeymoon later so we'd have more time to save x

  7. I love the idea of a minimoon (plus the name sounds cute!). It is way more feasible, especially when you’ve already just splashed the cash on a wedding. Luxury travel seems like a great way to make it extra special.

    1. If you can't splash on a little luxury on your honeymoon then when can you?
