Honeymoon Packing
Packing can
sometimes be a guessing game and packing light and parking for a
honeymoon are on opposite sides of the spectrum. However, if you do
some planning you can make informed decisions about what you’ll most
likely need. Most of the time, packing really isn’t as difficult as
we make it. You’ve just committed to one person for the rest of your
life so packing for a week-long trip should be a cinch after that
big step.
Since by now
you know where you are going on your honeymoon, you’ll be able to
pack accordingly. For instance, if you are going to a fancy upscale
resort restaurant that requires “dressing for dinner” which is a
jacket for gentlemen and a cocktail dress for ladies, you’ll want to
know that. Be sure to include clothes that provide comfort and
versatility. Treat yourself to a few new wardrobe items - maybe take
some fashion risks that you wouldn’t normally take. If you’re going
to an island or a resort, include some Hawaiian shirts or pretty sun
dresses. It’s best to pack the clothes you want to wear instead of
buying them at the resort. Sizing and pricing will surely be an
issue on site.
If you’ll be honeymooning on the
beach be sure to pack skin and lip protective products. Nothing can
spoil a vacation like second degree sunburn from the scorching
island sun. If you hate sand on your feet, sprinkle a little baby
powder on them and the sand will come right off.
If you’re going for the cooler more
mountain type setting, pack products that may combat skin drying.
Lipstick and other make up accessories may not be as necessary if
you’ll be spending nights in front of a camp fire. Shoe wear is key.
Make sure to pack shoes that are appropriate for what you will be
doing. Water shoes, casual walkers and 4-inch heels may all have a
place during your honeymoon, but make sure you have the right
footwear for the adventures planned.
