s/o if you were going to honeymoon again

[walterismydog]

Where would you go?

I would want to go on an extended whitewater rafting/exploring trip through South America.

My first honeymoon sucked. We went to my Aunt and Uncle's GORGEOUS beach house on the Jersey shore, where we got to stay for free. However, I had been there a million times before and it just wasn't special. It was in the early fall, so all the summer people were gone and it was like a ghost town. Horrible honeymoon.

This time around we're going camping for 3-4 days in Northern Michigan (Traverse City area for those of who are familiar with it) right after the wedding. Then, next winter (when I have more vacation time) we're going to an all-inclusive resort somewhere warm. Mexico? Jamaica? Not sure yet. But it'll be amazing. We're looking to book one of those last-minute deals through a travel website.

I didn't have a first honeymoon because we bought a house.

I would very much like to go to Greece, Turkey, and the Mediterranean on a cruise.

I wouldn't do anything much different. I want somewhere with a beach/sunshine, good drinks and food. Also it's the one time I care what my room is like. I'd like something a bit more luxurious than your average hotel room.

I would love to go to Santorini, but don't love starting off my marriage with that long of a flight.

I didn't have a honeymoon at all. I wish I would have. The Galapagos Islands sound like a great place for a honeymoon.

I enjoyed where we went on my first honeymoon (Gatlinburg), but XH wanted to stay in the cabin the entire trip where I wanted to go out and explore.

I would love to go to Ireland or England.

Ooh I dunno! Probably an all-inclusive resort somewhere warm where we could do snorkeling/scuba diving, fishing, lounging, adventuring, etc.

Mine was kind of like PiP, my parents have a house in Mexico, while it is awesome I had been there before and it wasn't really that special. Plus, MY PARENTS WERE THERE. We definitely had an awkward moment lol my parents weren't aware of it though.

Santorini is really nice, but IMO not the best honeymoon destination. There really isn't much to do on the whole island Thira and Oia are the two main towns, and you can pretty much see both in one day.

Granted, on a HM, you'll be staying in the hotel for some portion of it, but the best places there with the views down into the caldera, especially in Oia, are suuuuper expensive.

A travelling trip of Greece would probably be better, but that's just my opinion.


ETA - I just realized that might have come across snotty. Wasn't trying to be, I swear.

I didn't have a HM the first time around (and I'm still bitter about it).

I really want to take a trip to Italy - if I can swing it for a HM, great, if not, I'd probably look and see what Living Social or Groupon deal I could get for somewhere warm - maybe Puerto Rico or the British Virgin Islands.

I had 2 awesome HMs but # 3 would be to Bora Bora

[bowies]

My first HM was nice - small all-inclusive in Jamaica. It wasn't nearly long enough though. X wasn't much of a traveler.

BF wants to go to Ireland for our HM, but I've been there before. We'll see. My dream HM is Bora Bora. Maybe I'll go with mags.

My first honeymoon was awesome, the ex and I did two weeks in Hawaii and it was amazing!!! I'd probably do something like St. Lucia or Mexico, because I've never been to either place and I'd much rather have a relaxing beach trip then a touristy place like Europe.

[marigoldgirl]

I did not have a honeymoon before. I would really like one if I ever got married again. I would be happy with anything. Camping, beach, touring. Not really sure. Just time away with the one I love doing something we both enjoyed would be enough.

[naeljun]

Probably a med cruise or Europe.

My ex and I went on a cruise to Mexico for our honeymoon. It was fun, but I can only take so many days on a ship! I wanted to go to Italy, but we couldn't swing it at that point. So we said we'd save and make it our 5 year anniversary trip. Well, that year came and ex's sister had a destination wedding and all our Italy money went toward paying for us to go to her wedding. So still no Italy for me ...

Fi and I ARE going to Italy for our honeymoon next summer!! I am so freakin' excited. I want to see where my family is from, take a cooking class in Florence. Fi wants to visit the Ferrari factory. We are so excited!

ohhh, I'd love to go to Greece!!!!!!

this time we are going to St Lucia...Fi never got a first honeymoon as his now EX was a teacher and couldn't get the time off, mine was the same place as the wedding, St Thomas.

Idk, I kind of think it would depend on what kinds of things we both were interested in. Seems weird to me to think of where I would go on a honeymoon without taking the other person's interests and preferences into consideration.
