Ditching the traditional honeymoon
After saying “I do,” many millennial newlyweds are forsaking the traditional honeymoon for a new trend: the “many-moon”. Between their sense of adventure and career-focused lifestyles, a few quick getaways through the first year of marriage are both more exciting and practical than a traditional two-week tropical vacation.
Today’s couples don’t want to sit on the same beach for 10 days straight. They want to mix it up. Sip some cocktails in Tulum but at the same time, they want to take in the artists season in Prague. It’s easier to do that by taking shorter trips to more places.
According to the latest Romance Travel Study from The Knot, roughly 82% of newlyweds are opting for two- to five-day romantic getaways after the big day. A few exotic trips are not only appealing, but also a smart career move, for many hardworking lovebirds.
Couples can’t get away from work when they want to anymore. The pressure doesn’t comport with the traditional two-weeks-off-the-grid honeymoon.
As per Yahoo’s advice, newlyweds are wise to schedule many-moons around weekends and federal holidays to get the most out of their adventures.
