Honeymoons - Maldives

The Maldives may be a stereotype when it comes to honeymoons, but there is good reason for this. Weather, scenery, beaches, diving, accommodation and fine dining are all hinging upon perfection. 

For anyone looking for romance, luxury and seclusion, The Maldives is surely the perfect place to honeymoon. Or, if you simply feel like treating yourself to a holiday in paradise then these are hotels are a must to try and fall in love with. Stepping on the plane back home will be the hardest thing you have to do…

A weekend by the beach - Emily & Jesse

This stunning wedding from DwJohnson Studio will surely make you beam like I did when I first laid eyes on it. Does it get more romantic than a beach backdrop with neutral shades in your childhood holiday destination? No, I didn’t think so either.
                                   
So, without further ado, a few words from the bride Emily,“We decided to get married in Cape Cod because that is where I’ve spent all my family time since I was a child.  It’s the vacation destination for my entire extended family, and luckily my husband’s family had spent a lot of quality time there too. I grew up in San Diego, so it was important for me to get married on or near the water, so Cape Cod checked that box too. 

I wanted an elegant yet also relaxed wedding, so all my colors were neutral and really tried to reinforce the natural beauty of the setting.  I didn’t want to have to remind people we were on the beach by using “beach theme” accessories…I stuck with a slightly rustic romantic feel, or at least tried to aim for that :) 

It was the best weekend of my life, I had more fun than I could have ever imagined!”

Beach Romance

If you are contemplating a beach W-day then take a look at some of these beach weddings for inspiration. 

I love the goodie bag full of sun tan lotion, sunglasses and info - depending on how optimistic I’m feeling for a heatwave August in England I may just have to copy that one!

Honeymoons - Zanzibar

Zanzibar is located off the coast of Tanzania and offers incredible beaches, diving, culture and just simply paradise all on one island. 

The best bit is that you can easily ‘pop’ to Zanzibar for some relaxation after a safari or leisurely hike up Mount Kilimanjaro. Flights can be booked with Precision Air or a ferry from Dar Es Salaam can be booked through Fast Ferries

Here are some of my favourite hotel choices:
