Tip Of The Week: Planning Your Honeymoon

This is such a personal choice however here are a few things to consider:

1. Availability: How much time can you get off work? Some couples are choosing weekend getaways because they simply cannot afford 2 weeks off work. Check with your employer and don't book anything until you know all the facts!

2. Weather : If you have chosen a destination, they you must research the weather especially if it's a tropical island because you do not want to spend your honeymoon there in the middle of the rain season! It is wise to check out which destinations have the best weather in the month in which you will be married in.

3. Budget : As we all know wedding can be quite pricy therefore the budget of your honeymoon can be quite small but not to worry- here are a few tips to make your dollar stretch;

- Go in the off season not peak season (please again check the weather because some places are affected by this greatly!)

- Register for your honeymoon: just like you would for gifts, register online for your honeymoon 

-Do not pre-book: If you have already selected your location, do not pre book all the activities at the destination because you may find that your plans change when you get there. Be spontaneous! 

-Shout it from the rooftop: Let everyone know that you are newlyweds because you will most likely get  free upgrades, discounts and freebies!

-Opt for a package: If you want to save money and are on budget perhaps consider a package for your honeymoon e.g. Flight Centre will advertise flights & accommodation + free breakfast ect...

-Research online: Visit Living Social and other discount sites that will give you amazing packages for half the price! 

Best of luck xx
