As you embark on your journey to getting married, you will need to plan out every aspect of the day. Booking the reception hall, picking out flowers, sending out invitations and choosing your wedding party are just the beginning of planning the day. As you dive deep into signing contracts with vendors and working out how to finance the wedding, please do not forget to book your honeymoon. Planning your honeymoon is equally important as planning for the wedding day itself.
Why? The reason is simple and complex at the same time.
The simple answer, if you do not book the honeymoon you will feel you have nothing to look forward towards other than getting through the wedding day in one piece.
The complex answer is that while you may have imagined planning your wedding from the age of twelve, not everything necessarily could go according to your plan. In all great projects, everyone has obstacles to overcome and stress to deal with before the major event. Booking your honeymoon will give you a vacation to look forward to after the most stressful day of your life. Yes, your wedding day is known as the most stressful day of your life. The first day of your honeymoon, well, the word honeymoon just speaks for itself doesn't it?
And you don't need to go to some exotic place that costs oodles of money to have fun. Sure, booking a trip to Paris, Hawaii, a cruise through the Carribean, or an adventure outing in the African safari sounds great. However, all you need is some time with your newlywed spouse. That means if you think it is cheaper to go somewhere locally, then do so. Be sure to book it so that you will leave a few days after the wedding so you have time to recover from the big day. The last thing you want is to sleep in and miss your vacation!
Another piece of advice is that if you are not leaving the country and your cell phone has reception, remember to keep it off. The honeymoon is a time not to be bothered with your day to day stresses, whether it is from work or in-laws. If you have a hard time keeping the phone off, either keep it on silent always, or leave it at home. The peace and quite is worth it.
Take it from me, book your honeymoon as soon as possible, and you will be thanking me later!
