Packing for your honeymoon is fast and easy with this checklist. Before you pack, check with your hotel to find out if they offer hairdryers, shower essentials, alarm clock, and other amenities in the room. Pack as light as possible and be sure to consider weather conditions. Remember that unless you’re honeymooning on a deserted island, you’ll be able to purchase any items you forgot. In fact, most hotels will offer you items through their concierge – you won’t need to leave your room. Be sure to leave your itinerary, along with contact phone numbers for the hotel with your family before you go.
Essentials:
Create a small packet of information to carry with you. Make copies of all your items in case you lose them. Keep them in your carry on or purse. Only bring the credit cards you intend to use – leave the rest at home for safe keeping.
