How do you agree on a honeymoon if you want different things? You want to snorkel and jet ski and he wants to camp out. Let’s face it – today’s bride isn’t shy about making it all about her on the wedding day – but when it comes to the honeymoon, does your man have any input – or are you dictating whether you swim in the big blue ocean or hike to the top of Mount Everest?
A honeymoon is often the only vacation many couples take together –
because once kids are in the picture, it’s difficult for some couples to find
time for a romantic rendezvous. Or, if you’re a couple always on the go,
you may find it difficult to find a honeymoon destination that’s unique and
special.
Many couples find they’re polar opposites when it comes to what they
want out of their honeymoon vacation. Some guys want hiking and lots of
sun and sports while their brides just want to relax and soak up the sun – or
vice versa!
Believe it or not, there are ways to make sure both of you get what
you want out of your honeymoon, but you have to be willing to compromise a
bit. For instance, if the two of you go on a cruise, you will probably be
docking at various ports.
During the time you’re docked, you and your new husband can
participate in the activities offered by the locals – such as hiking tours or
extreme sports. While the ship is at sea, he can agree to lounge by the
pool with you or enjoy the fine dining that makes your honeymoon romantic.
Even if you’re honeymooning in the snow-frosted mountains, it’s
possible for one of you to participate in the activities while the other
relaxes. Or, take turns doing what the other person wants.
Marriage is all about compromise. The world is too big for any
couple to disagree about where to honeymoon. Out of all of the exotic and
affordable places on earth, you’re bound to find at least one spot that offers
something both of you want to experience.
If you can’t figure it out yourself, find a travel agent who isn’t
pushy and who will listen to each of your needs and then create the perfect
honeymoon package that excites both of you.
