3 Top Tips for Booking the Perfect Honeymoon

Your honeymoon isn’t just another holiday—it’s the trip of a lifetime, marking the beginning of your greatest adventure together. Whether you're dreaming of overwater bungalows in the Maldives, a wine-filled escape in Tuscany, or a cultural deep-dive in Japan, your honeymoon should be as unique as your love story.

As a honeymoon specialist, I know what it takes to turn dream itineraries into unforgettable experiences. Here are my top three tips for booking a honeymoon that’s seamless, stress-free, and seriously romantic.

1. Start Planning Early (But Not in Panic Mode) Booking early gives you the best choice of destinations, room types, and flight routes—especially for in-demand seasons like summer, Christmas, or popular wedding months.

Why it matters: • Resorts often offer early booking deals or honeymoon extras (think champagne on arrival or complimentary spa treatments). • Flights are more affordable and easier to coordinate with your wedding dates. • You’ll have time to secure passports, vaccinations, or travel documents without scrambling. Pro Tip: Aim to start planning 10-11 months in advance. You will lock in the best prices, take advantage of booking on a low deposit and paying the balance off.

2. Prioritise Experience Over Instagram It’s tempting to chase that picture-perfect destination—but your honeymoon should reflect you, not just your feed. Are you both foodies? Beach loungers? Adventure-seekers? Choose a place that fits your personalities and travel style.

Why it matters: • You’ll enjoy every moment more if it aligns with what you both love. • A less ‘trendy’ destination may offer more intimacy, better value, and fewer crowds.

3. Leave the Logistics to the Pros Your wedding is stressful enough—your honeymoon shouldn’t be. By working with a honeymoon specialist, you get expert recommendations and support before, during, and after the trip.

Why it matters: • You won’t waste hours comparing hotel reviews or figuring out complex travel routes. • A specialist can tailor the trip to match your budget, wish list, and timing.

No two couples are alike—so no two honeymoons should be either. Whether you want total relaxation or non-stop adventure, your perfect trip starts with thoughtful planning, expert insight, and a clear focus on what truly matters: celebrating the start of your new life together.
