Romantic Vacation Package Helps To Reduce Costs
By Julia Barnes
Forty years ago, a romantic weekend in a Niagara Falls
suite with a heart-shaped Jacuzzi was a perfectly fine
romantic vacation package following a wedding. Today’s
standards have increased ten-fold. Couples are looking
for more far-flung destinations with all the bells and
whistles.
"Hundreds of years ago, the honeymoon was a chance
for the bride and groom to get to know one another,"
Kyle Brown, executive director of the Bridal Association
of America, says. "Now, it’s a chance to say, ‘Let’s
get away from all this.’
It’s a vacation, an accepted and an expected vacation,
and that’s why the percentage of married couples who
take one is so high. I don’t see it dying down or going
anywhere--it’s part of the wedding experience."
Saving Money With Vacation Packages
Today, many households are struggling with financial
burdens that can put a damper on a romantic vacation
package. However, optimistic newlyweds are finding innovative
ways to save money on their dream honeymoon vacation
packages. Setting up a honeymoon gift registry is one
way to save.
Some hotels, such as The Marriott, offer a special
registry, which allows wedding guests the ability to
purchase such things as a one-night stay in a suite
($300), wine with dinner ($50), breakfast in bed ($45),
cocktails at the bar ($35), champagne and strawberries
($75), dinner for two ($150), a spa couples massage
($250), luxury bath robes ($125), activities ($250)
and more.
Purchasing Gifts On Board
Similarly, cruise ships like The Royal Caribbean offer
gift registries that include the purchase of adventure
gear, commemorative ship gifts, culinary items, stateroom
decorations, treats, flowers, luxurious lounge wear,
romance packages and wine.
Given the hefty price tag of most weddings, couples
may need to find ways to save on their romantic vacation
package, without sacrificing the luxury and pampering
they deserve. One way couples are saving is to book
all inclusive romantic vacation packages at a resort.
Many Activities For Couples
For instance, the Paradisus Playa Conchal in Costa
Rica includes a stay in a deluxe junior suite at a beachside
resort, as well as activities like snorkeling, sailing,
canopy tours, sunset walks and sport equipment rental
for approximately $3,000/week, plus airfare.
Couples who are more interested in amenities than activities
may want to book Rosewood’s San Ysidro Ranch in Santa
Barbara, California, where honeymooners can stay for
a romantic weekend in a cottage with a sunken hot tub,
private veranda and outdoor rain shower for $2,080.
Saving Big With All Inclusive Packages
Some places to check for all inclusive packages that
include airfare, resort stay, meals and activities are

Booking an all-inclusive romantic cruise is yet another
way for a couple to save big on their romantic vacation
package. For instance, Celebrity Cruises offers a 7-night
sail from November through April to Fort Lauderdale,
Nassau, St. Thomas, San Juan and the Dominican Republic
for just $780/person!
Cruising The Caribbean
All five-star dining aboard the ship is included, as
is daily and nightly entertainment. Alcoholic beverages
and port stop excursions will cost more, but the savings
aboard a cruise ship are unbelievable for many first-time
and veteran cruisers. Starting at $649/person, Princess
Cruises takes newlyweds to St. Thomas, St. Maarten,
Princess Cay, Cozumel Mx, Grand Cayman and Ocho Rios
Jamaica.
While South Pacific and European cruises cost around
$2,500/person, the Bahamas, Caribbean Islands and Mexico
offer much cheaper honeymoon vacation packages, which
is another factor to consider when booking honeymoon
travel.

More Romantic Vacations Facts....
Every couple needs to take a break from the stresses
of life to spend quality time with each other. That
quality time is essential to maintaining a healthy and
happy relationship. Far too often job, school and family
stands in the way and couples are faced with a growing
distance between each other as they go about their day
to day activities.
Nothing brings couples back together quite as effectively
as romantic vacations. A romantic vacation can be exotic
or it can be within a short drive. The key is alone
time for the couple away from the everyday pressures.
The romantic vacation does not have to involve some
grand event such as asking someone to marry you or being
used as an anniversary present. It can be something
that you do with your partner one weekend just to reaffirm
the bond between the two of you.
