Whether you’re craving R & R or an adrenaline-fueled adventure, a honeymoon concierge can help you plan the trip of a lifetime, sans stress. Katie Frederick Jacobson, owner of Ever After Honeymoons, spills her insider tips.
Why Go Pro
Looking for wedding tasks to hire out? Your honeymoon may be a perfect fit. “Honeymoons differ from a normal vacation, so work with someone who gets that,” Jacobson says. “We choose unique destinations within a couple’s budget, curate the itinerary and give them VIP perks.”
How It Works
“Couples fill out a form detailing what they’re looking for in their getaway. From there, I make recommendations for spots I think fit their travel personalities, including where they should stay and what they should do. Once we narrow it down, I book all travel and accommodations, and provide them with a fun, detailed itinerary.”
How To Plan
When figuring out where you want to go, focus first on what you like to do as a pair. “I tell couples that a honeymoon doesn’t need to mean going to the beach if you don’t enjoy that.” Think about some of your favorite times together—is there a new spot that bottles that experience or atmosphere? Go there!
Where To Head
“A lot of my couples are very active, so I’ve been planning trips that incorporate those types of experiences into their honeymoon. Iceland, Patagonia, Peru and New Zealand are all great for adventure-loving duos. Beachy locales like Thailand, Antigua, the Maldives and Indonesia are also big with lovebirds.”
