Here are my 4 simple steps to uncover the best location for your honeymoon vacation

1. Create a Vision

While this may seem obvious, you’d be surprised how many couples turn to the internet first, when they really need to create a vision first.
Allow me to help you better define what you are envisioning for your honeymoon and break it down in a more realistic way so that you can get clarity on your vision.
                                         Are you ready? Here we go!
Do you want...

• · Modern rooms with 24-hour room service
• · Authentic and unique accommodations
• · Adult or couples only setting
• · Top shelf liquor
• · Restaurants worthy of a foodie
• · Onsite water sports
• · Nightly entertainment
• · Large and active
• · Boutique and low-key
• · Mountains and waterfalls
• · Oceans and beaches
• · History and culture

Go ahead and use the above list to get started creating your vision for your honeymoon.

2. Decide on your non-negotiables

I encourage you both to write down your must-haves and priorities, the things that are most important for you to have the honeymoon of your dreams.
For example, a swanky suite, high-end service, a world-class spa, the best beach, kick-a** dining, a downtown location with easy access to everything, beautiful sites, specific experiences like swimming with sea turtles or ziplining, etc.

Once you decide on your non-negotiables, the two of you can work together to create an experience that will give you both what you want.

3. Define the type of experience you want

​Now that you know the most important things that each of you wants, it is time to work together to decide on the overall experience you both feel you will need.
Some couples really want to be pampered and relax, other couples want to explore and have an adventure, and some couples want a good blend of both.
The location you choose for your honeymoon will directly impact the type of experience you will have and without defining what type of experience you want; your honeymoon could be mediocre.

Here’s something I like to ask couples during a consultation: “Finish this sentence with the first word that comes to your mind: in order for my honeymoon to be perfect, it must be _________"

4. Agree on a budget

And the final step is to agree on a budget. Once you have an idea of what you both
want, then the budget conversation will be easier to have, as well as help you both decide on something realistic.

It is best to consider your vision and your non-negotiables and fit those into your
budget. You’d be surprised at how far your funds will go when celebrating a honeymoon at an all-inclusive resort.

I recently wrote an article about how much a honeymoon costs. I encourage you to check it out as I believe it will give you a good baseline.

Ultimately, the best honeymoon location for you and your partner will be one that excites and energizes you both. After all, this is a time to celebrate the culmination of a lifetime together and to enjoy being in love—not just another excuse to spend money.  When it comes down to it, go somewhere that gives you instant sensory pleasure: watch the sunset from a tropical beach, book a room with a view that makes you immediately unplug and relax, or enjoy dinner by candlelight on the beach or at an upscale restaurant.  The choices are all up to you!
I think this is one of the reasons why I love specializing in honeymoons. No two couples are alike, and I take great pride in finding the best location for them. If that sounds good to you,
