After the nuptials are over, many newlyweds choose to jet off to exotic climes to enjoy the beginning of their life together. However, as with any holiday, the biggest problem can often be choosing what to take. To help you out when the time comes, here are our 5 top tips on packing for your honeymoon. 

Don’t try and take too much away with you

Your honeymoon is supposed to be one of the most relaxing and romantic times of your life, and ideally, there’ll be no headaches or annoyances during your travels. However, you’ll be fighting a losing battle on this front if you’re planning on lugging a heavy suitcase or two around the world with you. Save yourself the hassle by laying out everything you think you need and reducing it by at least a third.

Unless you regularly come back from holiday having worn all of the clothes you took with you, this is a great habit to get into, so why not start with your honeymoon?  

Weigh your case 

As there are additional charges for luggage that exceeds the weight allowances of the airline you’re flying with, weighing your suitcase before leaving for the airport is a great habit to get into. For an accurate reading, purchase a set of suitcase scales, such as these from Marks and Spencer. These are also small enough to be slipped into your suitcase, so you can weigh up again for the return journey. 

Make your luggage identifiable

If you’ve ever lined up at the airport carousel only to find that you’re looking for a navy or black suitcase that is identical to every other case passing by, you know the importance of making your luggage identifiable. Do this by tying colourful shoelaces or ribbons to its handles, or by picking up a luggage tag, such as these from Amazon. 

Check what you can take in your hand luggage

Before you leave for the airport, make sure to read up on the Government’s hand luggage regulations so you can be absolutely sure what you can and cannot take onto the plane with you. This especially applies if you haven’t travelled by plane in a while, as these regulations become tighter every year, for obvious reasons. 

Bring man’s best friend along

For many dog owning couples, the idea of enjoying a holiday without their beloved pet doesn’t seem right. Our pets are such a big part of our lives that we can often feel guilty when we don’t include them in our plans, as they’re quite simply part of the family. 

If you can’t bear the idea of jetting off without your canine friend along for the journey, firms such as Pickfords offers international pet shipping services which will allow you to bring your dog along with you, no matter where on the globe you’ve chosen to enjoy your honeymoon. 

Keep these tips in mind when you’re packing for your honeymoon, and your holiday is sure to be as stress-free and enjoyable as possible.
