Honeymoons??
Alright, so we've picked out our dresses, showed our bling, now the best part.... the honeymoon!
If you are married, where did you go?
If you are engaged, where are you planning on going?
If your are single, where do you want to go?
Would you wait to go on your honeymoon?
Also, suggestions and "where not to go" would be VERY helpful!

Turks and Caicos or one of the other, lesser-traveled Caribbean islands.

My fiance and I are still 18 months out from our wedding, so we definitely haven't booked the honeymoon yet. However, the front runner right now is Aruba. We liked the idea of Bora Bora, but it was waaaaaaaaay too expensive.

I am thinking Tahiti , Fiji, or Greece.. (I dont' think he's too into greece though)
Of course I'd love to go to the Maldives it's less "touristy" I've heard... but that is a lil out of the budget I think.

1st go round - Walt Disney World. Don't laugh - it is one of the top honeymoon destinations.
2nd round - B & B in Virginia. Blech.
If I had it to do over again, I'd book a land/sea cruise with Disney. You can bring your own booze on the Disney Cruise( unlike others), you have Disney-class service, and the rooms are the largest in the industry. Plus Castaway Cay, the Disney island in the Bahamas is amazing - you can walk right off the boat onto the island (other cruise islands you have to tender to). There's plenty for adults only both at the World and the Crusie. I'd do 3 days at WDW, and a 4 day cruise with the romance package.

Greece is amazing. You should try to talk him into it.

Well-
we are heading to Rome then to a city near Pompeii. Afterwards we are flying to his hometown in London for a church blessing then a reception at his parents place. My parents, brother, aunt and uncle as well as two friends are coming over for it. Then my parents, Joel and I and my aunt and uncle are going to travel to Irleland, Wales, Scotland and around England for a week before heading home.
So I would say Europe, but my fiance doesn't really consider England, Wales, Scotland or Ireland as Europe. Brits are weird like that!

I'm single, but I'd love to do a Mediterranean cruise honeymoon if I ever get married.

We didn't have much money, so we went to Jekyll Island, GA and stayed at the Jekyll Island Club Hotel. It was SO relaxing. We joke that we did a cheap honeymoon because we liked each other, we'll save the expensive vacation for when we don't want to be around each other and want to see the sights!

We did the Aventura Spa Palace, which is about an hour south of Cancun (in the middle of NOWHERE). It was absolutely amazing! I defintiely highly recommend going the all-inclusive route. Where we were, our room, all food and all drinks were included. It was so nice not having to worry about any extra $$$ since it was all already paid for. And believe me, you definitely get your money's worth out of that all inclusive fee.

I am married and we went on an Eastern Mediterranean Cruise. We boarded our ship in Barcelona, Spain after spending a few days there. Then headed to Sicily. We docked in Sicily and got to go to the top of Mt. Etna. Then we went to Naples, Italy and did the Amalfi Coast and Pompii. We continued up the eastern coast of Italy and made a port call in Civitavecchia, where we took a train into Rome and the Vatican City. Then we headed up to Tuscany and visited Florence and Pisa. Finally, we made a port call in Nice, France and visited Eze. We circled around and went back to Barcelona! It was only 8 days, but it was amazing!!

We spent 10 days in Italy, which was amazing. I'd do it again in a heartbeat!
ZTAngel, what part of Costa Rica where you in? For our 1 year anniversary we spent 8 days in Costa Rica and loved it!! I've been trying to get back ever since!!
