YOURWEDDINGDAY 27
Finding the perfect place for your honeymoon is a big
decision � almost as deciding on locations for the
ceremony and reception � so don't let it overwhelm
you.
Here are some key areas that you and your partner
should make up your minds about well in advance :
One of the first things to decide is whether you want to
go overseas, or stay somewhere local and simply hide
away.
How long you can afford to go for ( how long will your
boss give you and how much will it cost)? Will you be
driving, flying or a combination of both? What's your
budget per night , or in total (this may help you
determine how long you want to go for) ? Are you
planning an active or passive honeymoon and is this
what your partner has in mind too? By when do you
need to book?
TRAVELLING OVERSEAS
Travelling overseas sounds exotic, and it can be, but it
can also mean dealing with both long flights and the
unknown. If you or your partner has your heart set on
a specific destination, then go for it.
To make the most of your overseas stay, its best to use
a reputable travel agency in your local area or on-line
STAYING CLOSE TO HOME
Ifstayingclosertohomeismoreyourstyle,thenyoustill
have a range of options from which to choose.
What type of accommodation � do you want to stay in
a hotel and get service, but perhaps not have the run of
the house, or do you want to stay in a self-contained
secluded cottage high up where no one can find you ?
Without wanting to go and checking out every place,
how do you make a decision as to where is the best
place to take your honeymoon?
Why not start by narrowing down the type of
accommodation you want, then think about the type of
honeymoonyouwant(doyouwanttogobushwalking,
diving, skiing, sightseeing, or simply laze around).
Look for places that meet your needs, then make a
short-list and contact those properties to find out if they
are available and how much they cost.
Do they have the facilities you are looking for? (do you
want a spa, a pool, an open fire, resort facilities or a
secluded location)
THE MUST DO'S
*Book well in advance.
*Read the terms and conditions of bookings regarding
cancellations and deposits.
*Ask for written booking confirmation.
*Advise the property or hotel if you will be arriving late,
or have any special requests.
*Confirm payment options, paying by credit card,
cheque or cash?
*Remind them it is your honeymoon � you never know
what extra special touches they might add.
