What's your ideal honeymoon destination? I would love some time in Tokyo and then Maldives for relaxing but unlikely to be able to afford that, so thinking about Lake Garda instead but also looking for inspiration

We're going to Cyprus, didn't want to fly long haul but Cyprus weather is meant to be very good...spent extra for a posh adults only resort for 10 nights :)

Our perfect honeymoon would be somewhere really hot with gorgeous views but the reality is we have 3 young children and I'd never go away without them so we are looking at Disneyland Paris

We're off to St Lucia - sandals resort, all inclusive and so luxurious and nowhere near as expensive as we thought, worth a look, much cheaper than the Maldives
Also try looking at Costa Rica or even Bermuda xxx

We're hoping to do the Maldives but will have to go a few months after our wedding to avoid stormy season. Planning on a mini moon somewhere hot just after the wedding though too.

We're doing Sri Lanka and the Maldives but Mexico was also considered. It was our first holiday together and it's beautiful there.

South East Asia is my favourite destination! My surprise honeymoon featured Beijing, Singapore, Java, Bali and Borneo. We've also been to Vietnam, Myanmar and Thailand. Depends if you want a lazy holiday or one with a bit of sightseeing! Thoroughly recommend this part of the world though, flights aren't that bad and accommodation can be really cheap (you get a lot for not much money). Pm if you want more details

We went to Mauritius for two weeks and it was a reasonable price for the standard of holiday we had! Was a nice relaxed one :-)
Italy is lovely, you could maybe do a few days in the lakes and then maybe a few days in Milan or fly down to Rome for some sightseeing. Also Sardinia and Sicily are great for beach breaks :-)

We spent 5 days in Tokyo last year - so expensive! We honeymooned in Cambodia (best place iv ever been in my life, 50cents for a pint of beer!) then Laos, then on to Vietnam. It was tiring (planning and travelling) but totally worth every second! Hope you find somewhere amazing to go x

We're going snowboarding in Japan then heading to the Philippines for a week of beach times. Check out Airbnb for incredible bargains! That way it'll only be the flights that sting your bank account :)

We are doing the Amalfi coast in Italy! Looks beautiful! We tried doing Lake Garda as well but was very pricey as going in August - so might not be much cheaper. Depends on your budget x

We did a three month trip round SE Asia - Thailand, Malaysia, Cambodia, Vietnam and Tokyo to finish. Cambodia has stunning scenery, beautiful temples and is super cheap. The Andaman islands in Thailand are beautiful and you can find luxury hotels for reasonable prices compared to the Maldives. If you like adventure and amazing food, Vietnam is incredible and climbing Mt Kinabalu on Borneo is tough but worth it.

Also if you're after a safari holiday I'd recommend Botswana or Zambia over South Africa - Chobe National Park in Botswana is a short flight from Johannesburg and prices for hotels and tours are much much cheaper than any other place I've visited. We visited in September and found rooms in new luxury hotels going for around $100 per night.

We wanted to go to Hawaii, but after a paying for a wedding and buying our first home could not afford it, so we went to Bali. Managed to get it really cheap in October as it's the start of rainy season, but it only rained a couple of times for a few mins. The rest of the time was glorious!

I went to Sri Lanka on holiday with my fiancé last year. It was absolutely gorgeous and not far from Maldives so you get the beautiful weather anyway. Wonderful country and the people are amazing too. I think we paid a total of £3k for 10 nights all inclusive in a 5* hotel, which was perfect for us. Then done a couple of excursions too. Xx

Lake Garda is incredible! It's where we got engaged
We went in September and stayed just outside of the lake. Everywhere was so peaceful as it was the end of the season there.
I'd recommend it to anyone!
