Honeymoon Budget

How to Budget for Your Dream Honeymoon!
By Jenifer Campbell of Escape Destinations Travel
 
Did you know that the average Honeymoon is 7 nights in duration and will cost over $5,000+! Your budget may be higher (or lower) than many others.  Setting your budget up (ahead of time) will help you in the decision-making process, as you will be able to discover what may be dreams and what’s more realistic.
 
We have a detailed spreadsheet where you can add up these costs (actually it auto calculates it all for you) based upon what you add into the budgeting sheet.  Request our Free Honeymoon Budget Planning Form today!
 
*Our Secret Honeymoon Tip:
Did you know you can use a free honeymoon registry (such as HoneyFund) where your friends and family can actually contribute towards your dream honeymoon as a wedding gift?  More details can be found on our website.
 
Here’s a few Budgetary Questions You may want to Consider when Planning Your Honeymoon Vacation:

1. What time of year do you wish to Honeymoon? Did you know Honeymoons that traditionally take place at special times of the year tend to be costlier? It’s true.  So perhaps you can consider choosing a better season to travel?
   
   
2. Know your budgetary constraints. Be sure to share this with your knowledgeable travel consultant ahead of time. There’s no use planning a romantic Bora Bora Overwater Bungalow, when your budget is more in line with a Carnival Cruise.
   
   
3. Bring your ammunition to your travel consultant! Let them know of any special perks or miles you may have that can assist in your honeymoon planning.
   
   
4. Be Upfront and Honest. If you or your soon to be spouse have any dietary, medical or accommodation needs, let your travel consultant know ahead of time.
   
   
5. Do your homework! Know where your ideal locations to honeymoon would be. Feel free to fill out our Honeymoon Destination Quiz ahead of time, so you know whether staying in a romantic castle hotel in Europe, a villa in the brisk mountain air or an All Inclusive resort at the salty seas are more your style as a new couple! 
   
   

We’re here to help you plan your Dream Honeymoon, by saving you time having to research for hours and hours and eliminating as many tasks and stress off your plate, as much as possible, at no additional cost to you (when you book with Escape Destinations Travel).
 
Think of your “must have” items needed for your Dream Honeymoon, and then consider prioritizing from there.  Don’t forget the romance, fun (and budget) at the same time.  You want to have the Honeymoon of your dreams, but don’t want to spend the next year after that, eating Ramen Noodles and Boiled Hot Dogs every night for dinner!
