Great Places to Honeymoon in the Late Fall or Early Winter

A sweet name in every sense of the word, honeymoons are synonymous with romance and pleasure. For hundreds of years newlyweds have spent time together after their wedding, in celebration and joy. The name comes from the initial tradition which involved the couple spending a whole cycle of the moon (a month) quaffing honey based liqueurs. Couples nowadays are more constrained by work and cost but that`s no reason not to kick back and enjoy this holiday of a lifetime.

A wedding set in late fall or early winter will let you enjoy your honeymoon in glorious and romantic locations at a fraction of the cost and without crowds of summer vacationers.

What could be more romantic than New England in the fall? The cooler crisper weather combined with those fall colors will blow you away.

Maybe Martha`s Vineyard or Nantucket? The delightful islands with their beautiful windswept beaches can feel like they belong to just the two of you. While swimming might not be such fun, walking and beachcombing will leave memories forever. Bring your softest cashmere wrap and be prepared to snuggle up over dinner in a charming restaurant. Maybe have a look at the starry heavens, before heading back to your country cottage or charming inn, to nestle in front of an open fire with a nightcap.

Even big cities have charm in the fall. New York without the melting asphalt is very appealing and hotel prices are much more affordable too. You can combine culture with romance. Kick through the leaves like kids in Central Park, picnic under the trees then walk hand in hand, looking at romantic paintings in the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

If sun is an essential ingredient for your honeymoon, you`ll want to head south. Even in early winter you can enjoy glorious weather on the white sandy beaches of Florida without fighting with crowds of school kids. And the hotels will welcome you like royalty so you should plan to dress accordingly when you get off the beach. Maybe you could indulge your inner children by combining it with a visit to Disneyworld for the adrenaline rush without the foot numbing lines?

Or for some more exotic glamour combined with fantastic value for your dollar you`ll find Mexico hard to beat.

For the unforgettable romantic experience of a lifetime, it`s hard to out do Hawaii. Watching the sunset and listening to the crashing surf with a cocktail in your hand and your loved one at your side. What could be better?

Now for those snow bunny newlyweds, an early winter honeymoon will ensure you miss the lines at the lifts, get to chose the most romantic inns and hotels and get great value as well. This side of the pond, Whistler and Aspen are hard to match, for charm combined with romance. But, if you decide to travel to Europe, any of the Swiss resorts will enchant you. After a hard day of skiing you`ll have the perfect excuse to curl up before a log fire and watch the flames dance. So romantic! And then you`ll be relaxed and ready for another glorious fun-filled sunny day without those crowds. Be warned though, the soft snow sparkling in the winter sun might put your diamond engagement ring to shame!

One thing`s for sure, fall or early winter are just perfect times to take advantage of bargain holidays for your honeymoon trip of a lifetime.
