    So just wanted to see where everyone is going for there honeymoon, when your leaveing and how long your staying.

     

    I am going to Maui for ten days, and we were lucky enough to get a great deal though Costco travel so we are staying at the Ritz. Talk about fancy... never stayed anywhere so nice before... so looking forward to it wish I was leaving now.... but we have to wait. We are leaving the morning after our wedding.

    Anyone been to Maui and have any sugesstions as to must do or must see things. Any great places to eat or shop?

    We are leaving 2 days after the wedding. 15 days to Paris, Venice, Florence. I'm excited because I've never been to Italy before and can't wait for the shopping trip.

    So exciting!! You all are going to such great places!! and @bridetobe7844: 6 weeks holy moley!  where are you from?

    We won't be honeymooning until a few months after. [sad face].  We originally were going to spend a week in Malta but I think we're going to do 5 days in malta and 5 days in southeastern Spain! woo hoo!

    Oneeleven    April 7, 1992   Ontario, Canada, Getting married in the Mayan Riviera

    We are having a DW in the Mayan Riviera so our honeymoon is built in.  We actually only have 3 full days post-wedding.   We would have stayed longer but the place we are going is pretty expensive and I didn't want to rack up any debt from our wedding so we nixed an extra week.

    But I leave for Thailand to see hubby for 3 weeks at the beginning of Oct. We are calling it our 'pre-moon' since its pretty close to our wedding :p

    If all goes as planned, about five months after we get married we'll fly to Paris and stay for two weeks. We decided to wait five months after the wedding because our wedding is in November and we wanted to be in France during spring. :-)

    I can't wait to go to Maui; I'm having my wedding there next August!  Make sure to post a recap of your honeymoon Laughing

    We will be spending the week before the wedding in Maui and then going to Kauai for the week after, technically our honeymoon!

    Ooo, I've been to Maui 3 times, seriously an amazing place!!! Some of my favorite things to do are to go snorkeling at the Molokini Crater and BE SURE to go on a snorkeling trip that takes you to swim with sea turtles, it's the most amazing thing being right next to a wild sea turtle when he surfaces to breath and just looks at you!!! If you're there during whale season go on a whale watching trip too, you usually see dolphins as well. Lahaina has a lovely downtown area with plenty of shopping, the biggest banion tree, and great restaurants like Bubba Gumps and the Hard Rock Cafe. Bubba's is right next to the best sunset viewing!!! And be sure to go to a luau. In May we went to the Royal Lahaina Luau in Lahaina and it was great! If you like driving you could drive down the road to Hana. It curves around the island and has a few hiking trails to waterfalls and such. It's a long drive though if you go all the way to Hana with LOTS of hairpin turns and one way bridges. I would not recommend it if you get car-sick. Driving North through Lahaina and Kaanapali around the Northwest part of the island is lovely too with red cliffs, great views, and jungle. Wailea is a great shopping area too in southwest Maui! Hope this helps!!! :)

    how exciting! its cool to read where everyone picked for there honeymoon.Hawaii seems to be a popular one. but I have never been and all my life envisioned it for my honeymoon, FI and I brefily through around the ideas of Fiji, Paris or Australlia... but we figured Hawaii would be just what we want, relaxing. and not a super long flight for us.

    Its a surprise!! My FI and I made a deal. He only had to help me with the food, his attire and the honeymoon and I'd do everything else. I amd REALLY hoping he choose Fiji. I have been hinting at it the entire time we've dated that I want to go there and hopefullt he's listened. So we'll see :o)

    I love all theses choices, I wanted Fiji but we agreed on Hawaii... I really really wanted paris, but that will have to wait... he just wanted to relax and not have to worry about going somewhere where there would be a language barrier on our honeymoon, oh the silly things that stick out in his mind...
