When it comes to your honeymoon, the world is your oyster. You can go anywhere on any budget if you plan right. That means there really aren't any "best months" to take a honeymoon. Whether you're getting married in June or December, you can plan a great honeymoon - with great weather - as long as you choose the right destination.
It's a good idea to start planning your honeymoon as soon as you start planning your wedding. If you're like many couples, this gives you a year or more to plan, so you can research the best places for your suntan or skiing plans. You may want to consider the planning tools and tips provide by free honeymoon registries.
Selecting the most effective honeymoon destination by month entails a number of elements. You surely want to think about the climate. If you are planning a beach honeymoon, sun and heat must be inside the forecast; but after you choose to sightsee in an historic European city, you may opt for milder weather. Some couples are deciding on cozy ski retreats for their honeymoons, so they prefer chilly climate with a lot of snowfall.
Besides weather, you want to know when your possible destination experiences the most tourists. For the most beneficial offers and least tourist site visitors, pick the weeks just just before or just after the peak tourist season for your destination. If traveling through the off season, check to ensure that hotels, restaurants and attractions are not closed for the season.
Three of the most popular honeymoon destinations, Hawaii, the Caribbean and Disney World, have specific tips that are unique to them:
Hawaii is almost always warm and sunny, but the weather can be better during the summer months when there's less rainfall. You'll also benefit from fewer vacationers.
The hurricane season in the Caribbean is June through November, so this really is not the safest time to program a Caribbean honeymoon. As alternatives, contemplate the western Baja coast of Mexico, Hawaii, or Aruba which lies outside the hurricane belt.
Whenever you want a entertaining honeymoon at a preferred family members destination, like Disney Globe, try to program your honeymoon when school is in session, so the crowds will not be as heavy.
