Don’t make your honeymoon the first fight of your engagement I love travel scenes in old movies, and one of my favorites is in the original version of “Father of the Bride.” Soon-to-be-married Elizabeth Taylor comes crying to daddy, Spencer Tracy, weeping that she wants to call off the wedding because of a fight with her fiance.

So you two are getting married? Why not do everything you can to make it a wedding to remember? Here are the items you will want to consider carefully while formulating your wedding plans:

Secular or Non-secular?

Decide whether you want a simple civil ceremony or a church-affiliated wedding.

This should be a straightforward decision, but if you run into a snag on this point, don’t worry; you can work it out. It’ll just be the first of many compromises!

If you want a church wedding, make an appointment to talk to the church representative that handles such things and go from there.

Money

Weddings cost money. It’s one of a handful of life-changing events, and an investment to make it everything you ever wanted it to be is appropriate.

Talk it over. Come up with a dollar figure and start gathering estimates. Once you two have decided how much you want to spend, however, don’t go over that amount. This is the first big investment you’ll make, and you want it to be a pleasant one.

Get Informed

Make your list of “must-haves,” such as wedding gown, invitations, flowers, rings and reception. Then call for estimates on each of those items.

If your estimates total less than your wedding budget, you can go on to items on your second-tier list, your “wanna-haves.” This list would include such items as a hairdresser, a photographer, a stag night, a hen party and professional music, both for the wedding ceremony and the reception.

The Moment You’ve Waited For

Did you forget the honeymoon? Not likely!

You may look at the costs you’ve racked up on paper so far and despair, thinking you’ll only have money left over for a night at the bowling alley! If that’s the case, go back over all your lists and prune. Or give yourselves more time to save the money you’ll need to create your perfect experience. The honeymoon, after all, is the consummation of the marriage. Make it a time to remember forever.

Bon voyage!

A honeymoon vacation is a memorable thing in your life. If you are a newly wed couple, you can plan a Caribbean honeymoon. Caribbean Islands are one of the very few places on the earth that are exotic. Honeymooning in the Caribbean Islands is the ultimate romantic destination.

The only problem here is that it is really a hard task to decide upon any one of the Islands, as there are around 7000 Caribbean islands. Of these 7000 islands, around 36 island groups are made up of single islands like Jamaica or group islands like Bahamas that have around 2400 islands. The Bahamas islands provide the ideal setting for all activities you would like to do on a Caribbean honeymoon. You have a variety of accommodation available from family run inns dotted along the old world city streets to the five star resorts. And if you desire to swim with dolphins, Grand Bahama offers you the Dolphin Experience.

Every island has its own unique intimate resorts and cultural flavor to make a perfect honeymoon. Making a choice among these Islands is not easy though all of these islands are uninhabited. Every Caribbean island has its own unique tradition and culture and making a choice is not simple still. However honeymooners can find at least one all-inclusive resort on each and every island, which can become the best thing.

A Caribbean honeymoon provides pleasure with perfect tune with the nature that suits your feelings, with the wonderful beaches and calm seas. You never have to worry about time when you go to a Caribbean honeymoon vacation, as you are free to do what you want to do in the Caribbean irrespective of any time-based pressures you face in your regular day-to-day life. The rich and tropical Caribbean honeymoon resorts provide exotic spots for the married couple.

You should remember a few things when you think of a Caribbean honeymoon.

First, you should select an island that would suit you as newly-weds. As already said, there is no dearth of islands to select according to your taste. If you wish to have a typical Caribbean honeymoon experience, the best place to visit is Jamaica. It is a large island that provides shopping, clubbing, waterfalls etc apart from a lot of all-inclusive resorts. If you wish to have more privacy and intimacy, you have a number of smaller islands offering you complete privacy. You can visit Dominica and Culebra if you require privacy with your spouse. Here you can enjoy time and take rest in warm sun with your loved one though these islands do not provide much amenities.

The next thing that you should remember is to choose an all-inclusive resort in your Caribbean honeymoon trip as you can find a lot of resorts to choose from. You should make a choice of resorts that are special for ‘couples only’ or ‘adults only’. Such resorts are exclusively available for couples on romantic holidays and would not have to bear overexcited kids and noisy families.

And finally, you should pack your luggage and get ready for the trip after making reservations for the trip. Most Caribbean honeymoon packages are include all inclusive in the price of the trip so that your beach privileges, water sports, resorts, special prices at restaurants, hotel gifts, Champagne and other free drinks are taken care of.
