You’re engaged—congrats! You've found the right place to start planning your honeymoon!
Here’s a month-by-month guide to make honeymoon planning a breeze.
12+ Months Before:
-
Dream big. Start browsing destinations together and figure out what kind of vibe you want: adventurous, relaxing, cultural, or a mix.
-
Work with your travel advisor (hi, that’s me!) to explore ideas based on your travel style, budget, and seasonality.
- Travel styles to consider: Active, adventure, culinary, culture, luxury, nature, relaxation, wellness
9–11 Months Before:
-
Pick your destination and lock in your travel dates. (I can do my job best when you have a destination in mind!)
-
Book early for the best rates and availability—especially for luxury resorts, overwater villas, and boutique stays.
-
Consider whether you’ll use points & miles or pay out of pocket.
- Secure travel insurance for peace of mind.
6–8 Months Before:
-
Plan excursions and special experiences: spa days, private dinners, guided tours.
-
Double-check that your passports are valid for at least 6 months after your return date.
3–5 Months Before:
-
Begin pre-travel preparations: vaccinations (if necessary), updated TSA info, STEP registration.
-
Create your honeymoon registry if you’d like guests to contribute to the experience. Ask me how to do this!
1–2 Months Before:
-
Finalize packing list and shopping for any special outfits or gear.
-
Reconfirm all bookings and transportation.
2 Weeks Before:
-
Review your itinerary with your travel advisor. I host a pre-travel call for all my clients where we go over final details.
-
Pack, relax, and get ready to celebrate!
Your honeymoon should be stress-free and unforgettable—and the right planning timeline can make that happen. I know how stressful just planning a wedding can be (I'm also a wedding coordinator). Let me take the work out of travel, so you can focus on what really matters.
