What to Pack for a Memorable Honeymoon
Wahoo! You made it through the big day! You didn’t stumble over the vows and you remembered every one of your partner’s distant relatives! Your dress didn’t get ruined and no one shared any horrible secrets. So now, it’s time to celebrate with your honeymoon! Read on for the best packing tips ever.
The Basics
First things first, as much as the whole idea of a honeymoon is to celebrate a very special coupling – you’re still going to need your average garden-variety vacation gear. Clothes, pyjamas, underwear, toiletries, etcetera, etcetera – unless you’re going to a nudist colony (in which case, hey have fun!) these are still all essential items that you’ll need to function in civilisation. After all… you will need to leave your room to eat and drink at some point.
Naughty Side
On the other side of the coin however, yes, you could argue that a honeymoon doesn’t really require a ridiculously long packing list – especially in terms of clothes. But what your list lacks in terms of practicality will be more than made up with fun items. Special lingerie, favourite movies, a toy or two – Naughty But Nice can certainly help you fill up a suitcase. Ensure you pack special items that will make the time with your partner just that bit more special.
Sustenance Supplies
Next up on Honeymoon Packing 101 is sustenance supplies. Regardless of how long your trip is going to be, you can’t survive on pure love and adrenalin. You’re definitely going to need your food, your drinks, and your personal belongings – so make sure you account for this in your luggage weight count. Ensuring you have your favourite snack foods accounted for, and all the necessary components to make your signature cocktail and you’ll be on to a winner. You don’t want your honeymoon to be memorable purely because you had to eat C-Grade takeaway and drink bottom shelf liqueur do you?
Entertainment Value
Of course, everyone assumes that a honeymoon itinerary only includes one thing, and although that One Thing may have a certain prominence on the To Do list – there are definitely numerous other activities you’ll be partaking in during your trip away. Regardless of the destination, or the length of your stay, it’s still a vacation and that means relaxation of all sorts. So stock up on books, magazines, TV shows, movies, and games – bonding together over new activities, or even just reading side by side, will create some great memories. As a sidenote, make sure you also look in to the local entertainment wherever you’re staying – trust us, your significant other will still be wanting to be spoiled post wedding.
Yay! So now, you should be all packed and ready to go – the above list contains everything necessary for a (positive) memorable honeymoon. Enjoy your vacation newlyweds!
