One of the most frequent questions I got from my customers while being a travel agent is what they should pack when they go on their honeymoon.  After all the months of searching through destination brochures and booking your dream honeymoon, it is finally time to make it a reality and you want to make sure you look your best, and be well prepared.

There is no one answer since your attire will vary depending on the location.  Are you planning an all inclusive vacation to Mexico or are you planning on cruising the glaciers in Alaska?  For the purposes of this article I will assume you are planning to be gone for at least a week.  Here are a few essentials you should pack while you are on your honeymoon.

It is a good honeymoon idea to bring lots of sunscreen to your destination.  Yes, even if you are traveling to someplace cold like Alaska, the sun can still be quite damaging due to the reflection of the water.  The best way to ruin your honeymoon (and all your pictures) is to turn lobster red from a sunburn and have to spend your entire time in the hotel room recovering.  In many destinations like the Caribbean the sun is much stronger than what we are used to so make sure to lather up! 

Another honeymoon idea for packing is to pack as little as possible.  Especially if you are traveling to a warm climate, you really should stick to very light clothes, just a couple bathing suits, some layers incase it gets cold, and a few nice outfits to go out in.  Other than money, your passport, and your camera you really will not need much else.  So leave the extra toys and gadgets at home.  Remember the less you pack, the more room you have for souvenirs!

When packing I is always a good honeymoon idea to plan and check your bag.  With new rules and regulations changing everyday at the airports it is just easier than trying to get away with carry-on bags.  Plus you would hate to get to the airport and then have something seized like your shampoo or toothpaste.  That means that you will be spending time and money on your honeymoon buying simple essentials such as these when you could be out enjoying the beach.

Another great honeymoon idea is to pack dryer sheets in your wardrobe.  This will give your clothes a fresh laundered smell instead of that dry musky luggage odor and will also help prevent wrinkling.
