Well, if you use it, birth control! This was something we forgot. FYI--condoms are really cheap in Canada. Why, I don't know!

Re: Seriously, what do i pack for honeymoon??

i cant really tell you what to bring, but i can tell you how to pack!

to make it easy stick with the same color scheme for shoes and purses and belts, etc

like, for example, bring brown/neutral sandals, brown/neutral purse and match all your clothes around that. or use black as the base color.

it helps narrow your choices

good idea! That cetainly cuts down on a lot of the extras!

Re: Seriously, what do i pack for honeymoon??

whips, chains, feathers, handcuffs, thongs, corsets,

sunscreen
bathing suits
two 'going out' dresses
flip flops
one pair of nice heels
one nice summer shawl
shorts-khakis, terrycloth
serongs
tank tops(casual and dressy)
some jewelry (nothing valuable)
cameras
toiletries
try to pack things that will be versatile-sandals and heels in a nude color (light tan/calfskin/wedges) match anything.
a tank top and a serong can be a dressy outfit with heels and a funky pair of earrings...
good luck

I always do that for business trips!

Think about what you are goign to be doign on your trip & paln an outfit for each day/evening--dont' just throw stuff randomly. Bring a sweater or too, that can work with most of your outfits.
Bring extra underwear, in case of mid day showering or other things

If you are goinf to be at the beach frequently bring 3 bathing suits, in case #1 isn't dry when you are ready to rinse out #2, you can just use #3.

Bring any medicatiot, contact lense cases, solution, etc, sunscreen, bug spray, a copy of your passport ( keep seperate from your passport, in case yours gets lost)

Sunglasses

I just had one set of jeery I wore at night & studs earrigns for durign the day.

Have fun! Congratulations, your wedding is almost here!

Re: Seriously, what do i pack for honeymoon??

dresses/nice outfits for dinners. bathing suit, casual clothing. and DO NOT forget a high SPF sunscreen (45 or 50) and Aloe Vera gel. I even bought Solarcane, just incase. The sun down there is a lot stronger than it is here.

Re: Seriously, what do i pack for honeymoon??

Thanks everyone! I packed all my clothes last night and everything I wanted to bring fit !! AMAZING :)
