Just trying to get a ball park idea of what different types of trips cost. Thanks!
If you could, please vote and then post where you went/how long your stay was.
We did a week in Disneyworld, flying in from Vancouver, BC (which is pretty expensive airfare) and spent just under $5000.
5 days to Mexico with airfare to/from Texas, all inclusive adult only resort was a little more that 3k.
$4400 for 7 nights/8 days at an all inclusive resort in Punta Cana including airfare from CA.
Ours will be cheaper since we will already be in Maui for our wedding and are just island hopping over to Kauai for our honeymoon. However, I will price it as if we were coming from home :)
It will cost about $3000-3500 including flight, condo, food, and activities like helicopter ride. If I go shopping at all (which is a good possibility) - you can bump that up a little bit :)
Approximately $5,000 for our 7 day cruise to Bermuda where we stayed for 3 full days...
Worth every penny!
We live in Florida and are getting married on the beach. We only have 1 week of time off that we can use for the honeymoon. So, we wanted sometime totally different for us (i.e. not the beach) and that didn't require wasting too much time of our precious 7 days traveling. We decided to go skiing and snowboarding in the Poconos in Pennsylvania. We're staying at a country inn/BnB type place in the mountains in a room with a hottub and fireplace and we'll take day trips to ski resorts, go horseback riding in the snow, etc. We'll spend the last two days in Philadelphia and tour some historic sites, go to the museum, visit LOVE plaza, wine and dine, etc. Our BnB is about $850 for 5 nights; the Loews in Phily is $500. Airfare is $550 for the both of us. We'll use the cash gifts from our wedding to cover the rest. We're guessing we'll have between 1 and 2k to use for rentals and food and stuff. Any money left over will go to finishing off our registry.
So budget is $2000-$4000, and I think we'll actually spend about $3000.
We haven't booked our HM yet (or even 100% decided on what we're going to do), so I don't know officially how much it'll cost. But here are some of the ideas we've tossed around:
Canmore, AB (Canada): $2000 approx
Disneyworld, FL (USA): week-long trip likely approx $5K-$10K including tickets, hotel stay, dining out, and air travel.
Europe or Caribbean: likely approx $5K-$10K
(I'm leaning towards Canmore because I KNOW we can do it for "cheapish", and because we've been there before & know we like it. BUT...I've always wanted to go to Disneyworld, and FH wants to look into Europe/the Caribbean honeymoon hotspots, too, so we're considering those. I just really don't like the price points, LOL!
about 5k, dc to st. lucia for 5 nights (arrived monday afternoon, left saturday afternoon). we spent about 5k for flights and hotel at a resort via a travelocity deal, and an airport transfer, and then about 1500 or 2k on meals/drinks (except breakfast), excursions, and spa treatments when we were there.
We are planning a 10-14 day trip around Switzerland by train. I believe the cost is going to be around $8,000-10,000.
I think we are spending about $6,000 for our honeymoon in St. Lucia. We're spending 5 nights in Sandals La Toc followed by 3 nights in Ladera.
We're estimating about $6000 for an 8 day cruise in the Caribbean:
$3000 - cruise (balcony suite)
$500 - airfare to Miami
$1500 - onbord expenses
$1000 - excursions
Going to Mexico from Texas for 7 days, all-inclusive resort. Including flight, $2200 for us both. We plan on doing a few fun things off the resort or on the beach, but hope to stay around $2500 total. WOOHOO!
Typing it is getting me excited all over again.
We're going to Greece for 10 days - 3 nights in Athens, 3 nights in Mykonos and 3 nights in Santorini. The total cost with airfare is about $5500 before spending money. I agree with @hecallsmelove: Typing about it s making me excited all over again, too!
We're spending $10K for two weeks in Europe. Flying from Phoenix, AZ to Prague then to Rome, Paris, Venice, and Florence.
We went to the Mackinaw City/ Mackinac Island area of Northern Michigan. It wasn't my initial dream honeymoon but it was very romantic and relaxed and I wouldn't change a thing about it. We probably over-indulged a little bit while we were there, but it was totally worth it. The experience was priceless.
We just booked out honeymoon from Ohio to Grand Bahama. We are staying at the Grand Lucayan Resort which is right on the beach and we have an ocean view room. It isn't all inclusive, though but for everything it was $2,230
We went to Sandals Grande Antigua for our HM. It was around 5000 for the two of us for our AI vacation package(flight, oceanview hotel room and all meals/drinks included). However we did spend an additional 1000 on excursions, spa, shopping, photoshoot and pictures. BTW - I didn't vote as I'm not sure what to choose as there are only 2 choices on the poll and both are such a wide range.
We're going for a week (plus a buffer day on each end) to a dude ranch in the colorado mountains! Totally not our usual thing, but that's why we're doing it. I like to usually go to Sandals-type resorts... so we'll do that once or twice a year. We wanted to do something different! There will be lots of delicious home-cooked meals, a private cabin on the CO river, horse back riding every day, hanging out by the pool, hot springs in the mountains, hot air ballooning and white water rafting! YAY!!!
We did two weeks in Italy and Greece. After everything was said and done we spent about $10K.
We're spending 5 days in Tofino, B.C. We rented a little cabin that's right on the beach. I really wanted our honeymoon to be super relaxing since the last couple trips we went on together (backpacking in Europe and Orlando, FL were super go-go-go and busy!) so I'm looking forward to sleeping in and walks on the beach in July :) Plus my FI HATES flying so I didn't really want him having anxiety on our wedding day about jetting off somewhere the next day. Lol
Oh, and it's going to cost about $2,500 - $3,000 I believe.
FI is keeping a secret (well, I don't think he'll be able to hold out much longer!)
I know we're going to Disneyland for 2 days (ahh! I LOVE disneyland, and he's only been once - when he was 5) I'm stoked for the bride and groom Mickey ears!!
And I know we're going somehwere else for another 8 days 7 nights ... and I think it's going to HAWAII!!!!
I know he spent >$5k because I know <$5k was his budget and he told me he blew his budge out of the water :)
Park City, UT. 5 days, 4 nights at the Waldorf. $1500 included flights and car. It was a fantastic deal. It was right on the edge of ski season, so the town was pretty dead. There were a few resorts open, though, so we got to ski without crowds. It was great.
We spent 2 weeks in Europe (2 nights in France, 3 nights in Rome and 7 nights spread out in Athens, Crete & Santorini) and I believe we spent about $6-7K.
Totally worth it!
We rented a private island off the coast of Belize and stayed for 10 days. We paid for the plane tickets with airmiles, so after taxes, etc, the whole thing cost us about $7k. We booked while the island was undergoing renovations, so it was super duper on sale. They've since raised the rate WAAAAAAY up, there's no way we could have done that now! Everything was perfect while we were there, not a hammer in sight :)
We spent the first two nights in a suite at a beautiful hotel in our departure city followed by seven nights at a boutique hotel in the Caribbean. All in all, we spent between $9K-10K.
We spent 2,800 which includes airfare from Chiacgo, 5 nights/6 days at Couples Tower Isle resort in Ocho Rios Jamaica, and transfers to and from the hotel.
5 day all inclusive adults ony resort for $2800 (included airfare) to Punta Cana, DR. We booked through cheapcaribbean.com. Oh yeah, its a 5 star resort to.
We are actually doing our wedding in Scotland (so that's about 3-4K of the price) and spending a week there. Going to London, Paris, and Amsterdam. We'll be there 2 weeks. It's costing us about 8k total. We have a few B & B's reserved, but mostly staying in hostels (in private rooms when they are available). We spend most of our time hiking, etc so we go to the grocery in the morning and pack lunches, so we really only eat out for dinner. Flying from Texas. We're actually mailing all the wedding stuff home after the wedding so that we just have our backpacks.
$2500, 7 nights and 8 days at a 5 star all inclusive in playa del carmen mexico :)
We spent 3 weeks in Ireland, for about 9K. Not bad at all considering the time we spent away!
We booked ours 3 days before leaving, got an unreal deal!
$2100 (though we only paid $800 out of pocket, paid the rest with Sears giftcards we rec'd for wedding gifts (booked through Sears). 5 star (Gran Bahia Esmerelda -Punta Cana) for 7 nights. Unreal amazing week.
We're working with a $8000 budget for 2 weeks in Israel traveling all over and doing 4 star hotels.
Tahiti/Moorea/Bora Bora... and it cost a lot. We stayed in OWBs + excursions... 10K+
We are spending more on the honeymoon than the wedding but going to Europe is my lifelong dream so it's definitely worth it.
2 wk Greece, Turkey and Italy Cruise $2,600
Plane Tickets $2,000
Tours $1,000
4 Days post-cruise in Italy $1,400 (2 days Rome, 1 day Florence, 1 day Venice)
Hoping to spend less than $7,000 :)
We plan on paying less than $2000 for a 4 night stay in one of those all inclusive resorts in Ixtapa, Mexico.
They say Ixtapa is the Fiji of Mexico.
We have a low wedding budget and low honeymoon budget. I figured we'll get more buck for the bang if we do Mexico.
We haven't gone yet, but we've budgeted $12000 cdn for a 14 night trip to Switzerland.
Here's the breakdown:
~$7500 for rooms (we're staying in some really nice places)
~$2500 for airfare
~$1000 for food (low thanks to 1 week in an apartment with our own kitchen)
~$1000 for car/train
We'll probably go a bit over budget because the exchange rate is awful these days. I'm used to it being 1:1 but it's now almost 1 cdn buys only 0.9 chf!
