Honeymoon blunders
Here are some of the most common honeymoon mistakes-don't make them yours!
1.
Forgetting to book a double bed.
You may laugh, but it's important when reserving hotels, especially abroad.
2.
Making reservations for an early flight the morning after your wedding.
If you're planning an evening reception, you can be sure you're not going to bed early on your wedding night. A later flight may save you from walking bleary-eyed through the airport.
3.
Not carrying a Condom.
This may sound strange but most of the honeymooners do forget to carry condoms on their honeymoon. This may happen either because of the hectic and tiring marriage ceremonies or just a simple oversight. Adequate sex protection is a must if you do not intend to get pregnant immediately after your marriage.
4.
Skimping on your accommodations.
Maybe on other trips, but not a honeymoon. Even if you think you won't spend much time in your room, you'll be sorry if your accommodations are not special. Probably the most common honeymoon lament we hear is, "I wish we'd spent just a little more and stayed in a deluxe room."
5.
Not setting a honeymoon budget.
Before you go, agree about what you'll splurge on and where you'll skimp to avoid any possible money hassles en route.
6.
Letting one person do all the planning.
After all, this honeymoon is for both of you. If you do all the work, you'll feel guilty if things don't go perfectly. If you don't take part in the planning, you'll probably end up dissatisfied.
7.
Ignoring cost-saving travel packages.
Talk to your travel agent. Many packages will allow you to have all the frills you want...and save you money.
8.
Thinking you have to spend every minute together.
You'll both be happier if you plan one or two separate activities on your honeymoon--and think how much fun you'll have sharing your experiences with each other.
9.
Keeping mum about being honeymooners.
Don't be bashful...especially with hotels, cruise lines, restaurants...Tell them when you make your reservations and you're likely to enjoy special treatment.
10.
Relying too much on friends and family.
Ask for recommendations from friends and family, but don't let yourselves be overly influenced. Follow your own interests.
11.
Not consulting with a travel agent.
A capable agent will help you plan a honeymoon that's right for the two of you-- at a price you can aff
