Hello all,
Just having a difficult time planning my honeymoon, Were not going abroad so staying in the uk. Want a nice hotel with spa etc, been looking online and theyre all miles and miles away from where I live. Or way too expensive what they are. Is it worth coming home on the wedding night and spending it at home? My argument is that all my stuff is here already but i spend all my nights here want it to be special. So confused can anyone help? Where are you having your honeymoons? xxx

Your profile is locked so I can't see where you are! Where do you live?

We are either staying at our reception venue, if they can be a bit more reasonable, or a nice hotel close by. We probably won't be having our honeymoon until our first anniversary because of the cost

Our venue is giving us a room for free - perhaps you could try and negotiate a free or reduced rate room for the night with them? if its a hotel that is!

H2B is doing the honeymoon planning - why dont you delegate the task to him and then sit back and relax? tht is the tradition afterall ;)

where do you live hun?

We are staying at the venue and then flying out to Cuba the next day!!!

where do you live? one of us might be close or know somewhere that you could look at.

me personally i wouldnt have liked to go home on my wedding night. maybe just try a cheaper hotel close to the reception venue for the night and then so somewhere else? xx

Our plan is to stay at our venue on the night (we have exclusive use of a 5* hotel, so can eat breakfast in the morning with all the guests who have stayed, which will be nice), and also the following night there; because we have exclusive use we can continue partying until whenever we want, so I think it'll probably be a late-ish night and we'll be too tired to properly enjoy the honeymoon suite lol.

We'll probably go on honeymoon a few days later.

I think spending your wedding night in a hotel is nice, even if it's just a cheap one; I think the change of scene makes it a bit more 'exciting' in a way. But if there's nowhere to stay within budget close-by, I'd probably go home if it's closer; remember you'll be really tired, so I doubt you'll want to travel miles just to sleep. That way you'll probably have a bit more flexibility on where to stay, as you should be able to travel a bit further.
