During wedding planning, one thing you will not forget is to plan for your honeymoon. This will give you a great time to celebrate your wedding and create unforgettable and happy memories together. It is of great importance for a new couple to plan their honeymoon, prepare the budget and save towards it. I have put together ideals that will help you save money and still enjoy that Unforgettable moment of your life.
1. Take advantage of seasons. Every destination has a high and low season—during the high season there are crowds and high prices, while the low season is cheaper (usually because the weather is lousy). Shoulder seasons, however, are right on the cusp of high and low, so the prices are more reasonable because there's less demand and the weather is still pretty good. Shoulder season for the Caribbean is late spring and fall, or for Europe, it’s late spring or early fall.
2. Go where you literally get more. A poor currency exchange can sabotage your budget (for example, the dollar is only worth three-quarters of a euro). You’re better off (at least financially) finding a destination where your money has more value, like Nigeria, Mexico or the Dominican Republic.
3. Fly off-peak. Flights are less expensive in the middle of the week across the board. If you're traveling domestic, fly on a Sunday to avoid business travelers. If you're going abroad, leave on Monday or Tuesday for the best deals.
4. Use public Transportation unless you're renting a car, do like the locals and ride mass transit. Cab rides, convenient, are notorious budget busters. Before you travel, familiarize yourself with your honeymoon spot's main modes of transportation, be it train, bus or ferries. Saving money isn't the only benefit of mass transit—in congested cities; the train is often the quickest way across town.
5. Investigate packages, If a hotel offers a "honeymoon package," take a close look to see if it's really going to save you anything. If the offer is six nights for the price of five, that's worthwhile.
6. Mention you're newlyweds. You can often leverage the fact that you're on your honeymoon for special (and free) extras. While there are no hard rules for the practise (or guarantees it’ll get you anything), its worth telling the receptionist you'll be spending your first days of married life with them. We've heard of couples getting complimentary room upgrades. It's also worth dropping the h-word when you're at airport check-in, and any bartender's bound to offer a round on the house.
