I second the point about putting a few days between your wedding day and leaving for your honeymoon. If you don't think you'll be up to leaving the very next morning, don't try to.

My friend booked a 6:00 am flight the morning after her wedding, and they didn't get to their hotel until 12:30 am. So they didn't get any sleep and were in airports all day, she says it was miserable and if she could have a do-over, she would have either left MUCH later in the day on Sunday or waited until Monday.

Good point. We left on Sunday after our wedding but we left at 12:30 PM. So we had time to get some sleep and then get to the New Orleans airport on time. My cousin left for his wedding at 5am the Sunday after his wedding. They planned on just staying up all night and partying, which really isn't my idea of fun, but each to their own!

My husband and I found out about 2 months before our wedding that our original flight was cancelled and that we were placed on a flight that was leaving at 6:00am the morning after the wedding (i believe the original flight was for 4 or 5 in the afternoon).
I was planning on not sleeping a wink because neither of us had any time to pack (I was about 1/3 packed) and we didn't get home until 11:30 that evening. Thankfully we checked our answering machine and they called to tell us that our flight now was pushed back to 12:30pm. THANK GOD!!! We got some rest, packed, and even had a chance to go through all of our cards from the wedding.

I felt more prepared to go on our honeymoon with just a difference of a few hours than I would've if we left at 6am that morning.
