Budgeting for your perfect honeymoon

Imagine the perfect honeymoon - the beautiful room, the wonderful meals and romantic setting. Then along comes the word " cost" .

How much is this going to cost us?
Budgeting for the honeymoon is a necessary part of the whole process. How much you will spend depends on many factors: where you honeymoon, when you travel, the length of your stay etc.So where do you start? Begin by doing a little comparison shopping. Prices differ greatly, from destination to destination. The price you are quoted if you call a property is usually the highest. Booking your honeymoon through tour operators and wholesalers, often enables you to receive large you can often discounts.The price of air travel to your honeymoon destination will varies constantly. On any given flight, there are more price classes than first and coach. Factors like Saturday night stay-over's can influence the price; plus seating costs can change daily.

Check with travel agents for special deals. Be flexible and try different days for different flights rates. Another way to save money is to go online and book tickets through that facility. If you have more than one airport in your area, it pays to compare the price of departing from various gateways. The difference can sometimes be several hundred dollars.Another boost to the honeymoon budget is changing currency prices. While it might not be enough to make you select a destination, favorable exchange rates can certainly help the two of you afford to splurge on an upgraded room or an extra special dinner during your honeymoon.

Regardless of the month of your honeymoon, you will find both high and low seasons around the world. One destination's high season may well be another destination's low season. Another option is " shoulder" seasons, those months just before and after high season. During this period, you will find lighter crowds than during high season, good weather, and prices more favorable to the budget.
