While planning should .begin well in ad-
vance - the logical first step is to contact a
travel agent for both advice and assistance -
a similar amount of thought should go into
arriving at a realistic honeymoon -cost
budget. A honeymoon trip can be enjoyable
and exciting, without being extravagant.
Couples should set a very realistic budget
for honeymoon costs and then stick to it.
With this in mind, many newlyweds save
money in advance to cover the cost of their
honeymoon, and there are also many travel
options available that take into account
cost-conscious couples who are looking for a
good value -for -money vacation that's within
their budget.
By booking well in advance, for example,
couples may be able to take advantage of
any reduced air fares that might be in effect
when they are travelling on their honey-
moon. Also booking in advance is likely to
give couples a better, edge in confirming
space on popular inclusive trips - prepaid
packagesthat cover all, or virtually all,
costs.
(guises are very popular with honey-
mponers, since they offer good value for
ninney.
On criiises, for example, aceemmodation,
meals, activities and entertainment are in-
cluded " in the price of passage
