Top 11 tips for a romantic honeymoon include:
1- Fix up a place that you both wish to go:
Picking up a honeymoon destination is not an easy task. Some people like beaches, some like mountains, some love adventures and some are more party kind of. So opting for a destination needs to be a joint effort. The location and the fun must have all the ingredients that you both wish for in your honeymoon.

3- Keep the itinerary flexible and easy:
Do not rush for checking out places and things to do, and a honeymoon is meant to be for relaxing and romancing. A packed schedule of places to see, and running around not only kills the essence of the honeymoon but also drifts the purpose from love to tourism. Make your itinerary such that you have ample free time with each other to relax. Traveling around too much will ruin your romantic plans so be sure not to add useless places and things in the itinerary.
4- A new surprise a day:
The most incredible way to have your romantic honeymoon even more passionate is brought on new items of clothing, fragrance, lingerie, footwear, accessories or more; such that they are not only sexy and appealing but also surprising for your better half. Be sure to keep your comfort and his preference in mind while purchasing.
5- Say no to technological distractions:
Do not take your cell phone or tablet everywhere on your honeymoon. Rather keep it at home when you leave for the honeymoon. Give time to each other rather than scrolling through others texts. Plan a few hours a day just alone, two of you without TV, music, phone or laptop. Be sure to carry your camera rather than phone.
6- Stay in bed for a whole day:
The charm and passion of staying in bed one whole day is unmatched. From sunrise to sunset, you stay the same in each other’s arms. Allow your romance to explore more dimensions, some more fun filled gestures and mushy romantic activities. Share stories, dance, read together or watch a movie, find that connect which would make the married life ahead not only filled with love but a craving for each other in every which way.
7- Take pictures under two categories:
One category is for all, and one is your keepsake memory. Make sure to capture every bit of your lovely moment together. Have a selfie expedition with some crazy whacky poses. Try to pose for your couple shoot when capturing. Be sure to have all the lovely poses showing romance and passions clicked for your keepsake.
8- Romantic dinners:
Make every alternate day a special dinner date, book the most exquisite restaurant and doll up for the treat. Have all your cool, trendy and sexy outfits be your special friends, and glam up for your partner. Book a special corner seat for all your romantic extravaganzas. And keep your suave self-alive for dinner.

The one new thing can be anything like your favorites, your craziest, your fantasy and everything that can make the romance more stronger and beautiful. And try to get the details in it too. The why and how behind everything makes it even more lovely.

10- Pick the honeymoon special lingerie and night wears:
Though everyone gets these for sure, its always wonderful to buy it all with your partner. Some exceptions of surprises but the rest can be bought together. Match his boxers and shorts with your lingerie and have it all special for the days. Pick your best one for the day you plan your surprise.
11- Let everyone know:
When you are on a honeymoon, you need to get that extra affection and pampering from all. So announce everywhere that you are honeymooning. Let the hotel and airline staff share their surprises and be sure to meet more couples for some few hours of couple getaways. Remember TV show FRIENDS. Monica and Chandler on their honeymoon, and all the crazy fun beginning from an airport to the hotel and “we need the stuff.” Be sure not to overdo, but you deserve the extra attention.

The above compilation on Top 11 tips for a romantic honeymoon is based on readings over time. Through experience, I would emphasize, do not indulge in too much interacting with friends, texting or calling family. This ruins the idea of honeymoon totally. You just need to sneak in as much time with and for each other as possible. Make it an intimate and passionate affair by doing crazy things your never thought you could. All these would align your comfort levels with each other. At the end, it’s all about finding an unshakeable connect, which will help you rise ahead through thick and thin. As a couple, the first getaway or your honeymoon builds a strong foundation not only for a happy married life as a couple but also as friends who can share everything and face everything.
