When planning a wedding, it’s a good idea to break down all of your wedding necessities into categories- flowers, attire, catering, music, venue, invitations, etc. As if all of this isn’t overwhelming enough, there are of course decisions to be made within these categories. Buffet vs. plated catering, live music vs. a DJ…. and the list goes on and on and on. Anyway, you can follow this same process when picking out your invitations. So, the decisions don’t end when you find your perfect invite. I know, more choices!

Hawaii, Mexico, and the Caribbean are popular places that boast tropical weather, pristine beaches, honeymoon suites, and a fair share of palm tree/hammock combinations. These are all great contributors to your honeymoon but we thought we would do a little digging to find destinations that are uniquely beautiful, less known, and have all the characteristics of a perfect beach honeymoon.
1). Morocco- Often called The Gateway to the Mediterranean, Morocco’s cultural diversity make it a great destination for those looking for a flare of the exotic.
2). Cuba- A little harder to get to but well worth it! One can enjoy the beaches, check out the beautiful Spanish-colonial architecture in Havana, and spend nights salsa dancing under the sunset.
3). Seychelles- The hidden gem of the Indian Ocean, Seychelles’ natural beauty is truly breathtaking.
4). Turkey- Istanbul’s long and colorful past provide many a ruin and castle to explore. After your view into history, make your way to the Lycian coast where you can snorkel over the ruins at Aperlai and swim with dolphins!
5). Cinque Terre, Italy- Five Seaside Villages nestled at the bottom of terraced cliffs offer romanticism and old world charm.
6). Croatia- Nicknamed “The New Riviera”, Croatia’s coastlines are well preserved and haven’t been spoiled by over-development.
