Honeymoon...

We want to go someplace different...I heart St Lucia was beautiful but it didn't have much to do besides the beach. Anyone have any good ideas??

Re: Honeymoon...

What are you looking to do? Do you want beaches, historical sites, museums?? Europe is FANTASTIC if its in your budget. Then there are parts of Mexico which are great bc there are great ruins and beaches etc. If you want to go north, Quebec City and other cities in Canada are romantic and theres so much to do. Or what about a cruise? You see many diff. islands and there are all types of excursions to go on.
Hope this helps a bit

Originally I wanted to do a Southern Caribbean Cruise but FH didn't want to be rushed in each port...

We will be doing a week in Aruba in a cousin's timeshare...We get the best of both worlds...I love the beach & sun & FH loves the casinos...This was the best fit for us...Plus there are tons of activities like snorkeling, parasailing, 4x4 tours

Hawaii!!! Altho we haven't done anything yet, so I have no idea how much it would cost.

We decided to go to Italy. But we won't be going until a couple of months after the wedding. We will go to Florida and stay at my mom's house for a few days after the wedding and decompress. I can't wait to go to Disney World.

Re: Honeymoon...

We are hoping to do Hawaii

My cousin and FI are going to Greece

Cruises are great. A co-worker just got back from a cruise that involved Mexico.

And another bride recommended an Alaskan
cruise, which I hear is a must-do!!!

Good luck choosing

Re: Honeymoon...

We're thinking either Brazil, Australia, Italy or New Zealand. FH grew up in Florida and doesn't want to go someplace where all we do is lay on a beach. So we're trying to go somewhere that has lots to do and see.

Re: Honeymoon...

Don't think I'd survive on a cruise (might get a little seasick) I want the beach, with stuff at night.......I was thinking the Greek Islands but i got mixed reviews on that...

Re: Honeymoon...

If you are thinking of Europe keep in mind that the Euro is much more powerful than the dollar. One Euro = One dollar and 45 cents.

The pound is worse
One pound = One dollar and 95 cents.

FH and I are going to Portugal in three weeks (I can't wait) to visit some of his relatives and we were just talking about this. Everything is much more expensive and the exchange rate is awful.

Re: Honeymoon...

Thanks Nancy, let us know how Portugal is..........i'm getting married at Notre Dame also, are you from NHP?
