Perfect Honeymoon on a Budget

June 28, 2015 By Susan Robson

The Perfect Honeymoon on a Budget            th

New couples rarely have vast sums of money to spend on their honeymoon. However, every new couple deserves the perfect honeymoon – one without compromises based on expense. In my decades of experience as a travel agent, I have isolated the factors that allow any new couple to have the perfect honeymoon – regardless of their budget.

Why money doesn’t matter

Even though money and budget is the first thing most people think about first when they think about booking a Honeymoon, it is factually one of the least important factors. I’ve met people who had unlimited resources who still had lousy vacations. Why? Having a Perfect Vacation is not at all related to having money.  Money allows you to do and buy things, sure – but if you don’t know what to do or buy – or if you spend your money on what you think will make you happy and you have made a wrong decision, then it doesn’t matter how much money you have or don’t have.

The first thing to decide when choosing a honeymoon

So let’s set aside money for the moment. What do you want to achieve on your Honeymoon? List out every single thing you’d like to achieve, whether it’s relaxation, lasting memories, new experiences, exercise, adventure, shopping, great food – whatever you want to get out of your time together, write it down. Next, prioritize your list. Number the items from most to least important. Finally, have your fiance do the same thing.

Now that you’ve made your list, I’d like to point something out. You can achieve those goals at many different locations – and at any budget. It isn’t true that you must travel across the planet to have the Perfect Honeymoon. The trick is to find someone with decades of travel experience to help you make your priorities happen. Knowing your Honeymoon priorities, a good travel agent can work within your budget to make your perfect honeymoon happen.

I’d like to invite you to fill out my perfect honeymoon finder. It is a fun and fast series of questions that I use to help you choose your Perfect Honeymoon. There is no obligation to work with me further, and it is completely free. Go ahead and fill out my free Perfect Honeymoon Finder now.

Perfect Honeymoon despite Time Constraints

November 19, 2014 By Susan Robson

Perfect Honeymoon time constraints

Is the Perfect Honeymoon possible, despite time constraints?  Like it or not, time constraints can wreak havoc on honeymoon choices.

Time can become a major problem when choosing a honeymoon in several different ways:

Time limitations cutting a trip short

None of us have unlimited time that we can be away.  We all have responsibilities to work and family that, while they can be delayed for a period of time, can’t be ignored forever.  This constraint can play a role in the honeymoon decision-making process. Inexperienced travelers can in fact find it overwhelming.  How much time should be allocated for travel?  How many days of leisure will be boring?  Is it better to spend less time traveling and more time actually “on vacation?”

As overwhelming as this time factor can appear, there is a simple solution for it – which I outline below.

Seasonal time factors for a honeymoon

We all have the friend who got an amazing discounted rate for their tropical vacation, and who then arrived to discover the beaches were uninhabitable because it was jellyfish season.  The time of year can affect whether your honeymoon is filled with blissfully warm days and cool evenings, or whether it feels like you are visiting hell on earth.  An experienced travel agent will help you determine whether your vacation will be heaven or hell, based on seasonal factors.

Travel time ruining a honeymoon                                        

Although I touched on this earlier, it is important to decide in advance how much time you and your new spouse are willing to devote to the travel time needed to get to your destination. Flight accommodations are rarely comfortable for a long haul. You have to decide whether a visit to a new location is worth being limited to small spaces and airport inconveniences for a period of 12 to 18 hours.

Time problems can be solved

As overwhelming as the time factor can seem to be when planning your honeymoon, it’s not the most important factor to solve.  If, instead, you look at and answer a few other key questions, the time factors become virtually nonexistent.

Answer these questions and gain enough time for the perfect honeymoon                                          

What is the main thing you’d like to achieve on your honeymoon?

What emotions would you like your honeymoon vacation to elicit?

How much interaction do you want to have with other people?

Do you want to party or be by yourselves?

When you think about a honeymoon, do you picture more relaxation, activity, or excitement?

Once these questions are answered, make sure you ask them of your fiance.

The secret to time and money for vacation

Now notice that all of the above desires can be fulfilled independently of the time and money spent on the vacation.  As long as you have clearly named what is important to you for your honeymoon, an experienced travel agent can help you find a vacation that matches your desires perfectly.  The secret is to realize that location, time and money are arbitrary – that the product of the vacation is what you are going for.

Do a free honeymoon analysis

I offer a free honeymoon analysis to help people just like you discover the perfect honeymoon.  It is a free and fun survey that will give me the information I need to isolate and suggest the perfect honeymoon for you.  There is no obligation for taking the survey, and I promise I won’t sell your identity or bother you with a bunch of phone calls.  This is my opportunity to help you.  I’ll call or email my suggestions to you within a day or so.  Start the free honeymoon analysis now.
