Honeymoon:
Everyone deserves a honeymoon and after all that planning you are going to need one. Below are the top ten honeymoon locations:
1. Amalfi Coast – Italy: Considered the most romantic location in Europe with 50k of coastline for romantic beach walks and relaxing dips in the beautiful blue sea.
2. Thailand – Koh Phi Phi: this is one of Thailand’s most romantic islands. With clear blue sea to match the clear blue skies it’s the perfect romantic destination.
3. The Maldives: Advertised as ‘Paradise’ the Maldives is probably one of the most relaxing and luxurious honeymoon locations available but it comes with a hefty price tag too.
4. New York: For a real cultural exchange, New York is the place to go, there’s loads to see and do with a fantastic friendly atmosphere to go with it.
5. South Africa: People say you that once you’ve been you’ll never want to leave. South Africa offers a honeymoon with romance and fun. Think four poster beds and safari’s.
6. Australia: Always a popular location for honeymooners as it is seen as a once in a lifetime trip. Much like your wedding!
7. Russia: An unusual honeymoon destination but also a popular one. St Petersberg is particularly romantic when covered with a blanket of snow. The perfect place to snuggle up together.

Your local travel agents can help you plan the perfect holiday if you just tell them what you are after and you will be well on the way to a once in a life time holiday with your new husband/wife.

Marrying abroad:

More and more people are choosing to spend their wedding day abroad and it’s easy to see why, sun, sea and beautiful locations. Who wouldn’t want to have their wedding ceremony standing on golden sands shaded by palm trees as the tide gently laps against the shore? But just how practical is it? It isn’t as expensive as you may think as long as your don’t have an enormous family, for those of us expecting 200 guests at the church this probably isn’t the wedding plan for you (unless your budget is very expandable). However a popular idea is to have a small amount of family and friends at the wedding then hold a reception when you get home.
Think carefully about where you want to get married and remember places like the Caribbean and Africa certainly make fantastic back drops to your big day but will also be incredibly hot during high season.
