not all travel costs the same
WHAT ARE SOME OF THE VARIABLES ?
Generally , the cost of a honeymoon can vary greatly depending on factors such as destination , duration of stay , mode of transportation , and level of luxury . On average , a basic honeymoon package could cost anywhere from $ 2,000 to $ 10,000 or more , depending on the location and the activities chosen . However , it is important to keep in mind that there are always ways to save money , such as traveling during off-peak seasons , opting for less expensive accommodations , and choosing activities that fit within your budget .

This is really dependent on several things – this year everyone is traveling , so , prices have increased . If you are looking for a lesser expensive honeymoon , try Mexico and some of the Caribbean Islands , but again , it depends on the destination .
If you want to go to a stunning island like Saint Lucia , it will cost you more then going to the beautiful island of the Dominican Republic . If you want a short flight – then maybe it ’ s to go to the Bahamas ! Or it could be the dream of an Italian villa or a castle stay in Ireland , or an over water bungalow in Tahiti or Fiji .
Also travel prices vary depending on time of year , when you start planning and when you lock in your dates and prices .
There are also many resort styles to choose from . For honeymoons , I like to focus on the atmosphere of the resort and what the client ’ s perception is of their dream honeymoon !
