Honeymoon close to home

Hi girls,

I need some advice for my cousin-in-law (I think I made that term up). Anyhow, her fh does not have much time to take off from work. It would most likely be from a Friday to a Monday or Tuesday. They will be getting married end of May. Any suggestions on where they could enjoy a nice honeymoon close to home? TIA

Myrtle Beach

Florida - Orlando/Disney, Miami, South Beach, etc etc

(I don't know if they will consider FL close to home but I do - it's only a 3 hr flight)

Virginia Beach

I know this may be a stretch, but Puerto Rico is only a 2 1/2 hour flight. With jet blue, its really cheap and its a relatively cheap island to visit.

I believe that they only want to drive.

I flew to Chicago on a Thursday& came back on a Sunday for fun once. Short 2-3 hours flight may end up takigna s much tiem as most of the places you'd wnat to drive to.

Montreal is a good quick place to fly to.
You could drive, but with just a few days it sucks up a lot of time.
Newport Rhode Island is really nice too.

ETA- I use the phrase Cousin -in -law too.
