Prepare a Honeymoon Travel Budget

Before you book your trip, brainstorm what costs you will incur and estimate the amounts.  Put all of the information together to create a travel budget that will act as a roadmap.

Pack a Smart Carry-On Bag

Pack a carry-on with your essentials just in case your luggage is lost. Throw in a pair of sandals, bathing suit, toothbrush, a dress, and a nighty for your first honeymoon night.

Use Points and Miles

If you are into travel hacking, you can reduce the honeymoon cost. One way is to collect points and miles by putting all of your wedding expenses on new travel rewards credit cards like the Chase Sapphire Reserve.
