Beach Bums
Summer breeze, palm trees and a straw for two in between; what’s not to love about this cliched yet romantic getaway? While you’re sunbathing ‘neath the clear blue skies, it isn’t a bad idea to pack up a breezy beach dress that will leave him reeling! Personally, we love The Bahamas for the crystal clear water and white sand shores but we say, pick whatever floats your boat and don’t forget the sunscreen!
Into The Wild
Prisoners of your own devices? Well, it’s time to break the pattern! And there is no better way to do this than on your honeymoon. Pack your bags and head into the greens to hit refresh on your lives. Wildlife getaways are a great way to unwind. The lush greens are also no network zones so the constant ‘ping’ of your mobile phones won’t get in the way of you both having a great time! Relaxed silhouettes and lighter, neutral palettes are a go-to amidst the flora & fauna. Safari resorts in South Africa and Rocky Mountains in Colorado are on the top of our lists, if you must know.
A Drive To Remember
Young, wild & free – go roadtrippin’ for your honeymoon if these three words describe you and your beau! Pack up a bunch of easy, breezy clothes; our bets are placed on a comfy shirt with loose bottoms to get you through the road looking stylish and feeling great. To explore in the truest sense of the word, trust the path to take you to a place you haven’t been to before. With your hair up in a pony, take your best pair of sunnies for a ride! Travel without a destination in mind, and watch out for those not-to-miss drive-through joints.
Cruisin’ Through
Feeling exotic? Board a honeymoon cruise for the most intimate setting with the ocean and the sea serving as your backdrop. Pass through some of the most beautiful ports and live every day as if it’s a new one. From open bars to relaxing spa sessions, casinos to grand suites – it can’t get any better! Pack your best dresses to sail through and ditch layers or pants. Don’t shy away from shimmer or anything that screams ‘glam’! And if you’re feeling a little extra, strike the infamous Titanic pose with your soulmate – just for fun!
An Urban Fairytale
If dancing’ in the street is on your honeymoon bucket list, then you ought to do it in style! Give in to your ‘crazy’ and groove with your partner amidst the hustle and bustle of a city, or simply take a walk in the park – hand in hand. A honeymoon in a metropolis gives you a million things to do at all times during your stay. Stroll aimlessly through lanes with no sense of direction or time, explore the history of the city or catch up with locals to socialise. Your best maxi dresses will allow you the space to breathe easy and toss away the fatigue. Plus, make flats your BFFs for an urban getaway and they shall not disappoint. Don’t forget the cuisine though. After all, isn’t a food-binge almost always the highlight of a holiday?
