Fi and I are throwing around HM ideas and haven't settled on anything we love yet. We have traveled a little together, but not extensively internationally. We have 2 weeks to take and right now have around 12K set aside. Our wedding is in September over Labor Day weekend so between now and then could probably save more if needed, or spend less if not necessary.
Places we've liked: Oahu was OK, Nuevo Vallarta, Key West and he really loved Maui (we got engaged there). Probably because we loved Maui so much, he likes the idea of traveling to Kauai. While I would eventually like to make it there, I feel like a honeymoon is more of a "once in a lifetime" trip and we've already been to Hawaii twice and will likely go again. He likes Hawaii because he feels like we could definitely budget to fly first class and he is kind of a taller, bigger guy and would be more comfortable. Plus it seems like the shortest flight.
He also really liked the idea of Austrailia, but I think that if we would like to go there, we should push our HM back a few weeks so we can hit more in their summer. (We really enjoy beaches, hiking, relaxing and snorkeling.) He doesn't want to wait and would prefer to leave right away that Sunday evening.
Together we've also tossed around the idea of spending a week on the Amalfi coast of Italy and then maybe the second week in either Florence or Rome.
A friend who recently HM'd suggested Tahiti (Moorea + Bora Bora) or Fiji. I've seen pictures and these are both gorgeous, but I don't know much more.
Anyone have any experiences they'd like to share or suggestions? Or places we haven't thought of yet? I don't mind planning, but we can't even settle on a destination yet, let alone flights + hotels! Thanks in advance!
