New travel trend: Renew your honeymoon

Perhaps you always daydreamed of an African safari with your better half, but at the time you got married it was way above your budget. Or, maybe you’ve been married a long time and simply want to inject some romance back into your relationship and reconnect as a couple by renewing your honeymoon experience.

One enormous blessing for everyone that came from living through a pandemic, was the gift of appreciation for our loved ones and our freedoms. Combine that with our incentive to make up for lost time and our newfound desire to live life to the full without regrets and you have the perfect timing for seizing the moment to put things right, including all those travel regrets.

Now, travel is back on the menu, there is simply no denying the desire for most to get out there and see the world. We are witnessing couples of all ages grabbing the opportunity to upgrade their first honeymoon experience. Adding more adventure, more destinations, more experiences, more relaxation and simply making the big decision to enjoy the honeymoon they’ve always wanted.

If you’ve experienced a honeymoon that turned out disastrous through either a series of travel nightmares, poorly timed mishaps or bad weather, its quite possible that you’ve lived with the unhappiness surrounding this experience, hoping that one day you will get the opportunity to do it over again.

When testing times are placed upon you, it is often the importance of your nearest and dearest that comes to the forefront of your mind.

Part and parcel with cancelled birthdays, anniversaries, and weddings in 2020 and 2021 came cancelled travel plans. According to data collected by Exploding Topics, over the past two years, Google searches for ‘honeymoon cancelled’ shot up by 180%, as people were forced to make last minute changes to their plans, choose a new destination or abort their escape all together. And in September 2020, hitched.co.uk recorded that 80% of newlyweds would be forced to postpone their honeymoons to a different time or place. Over the course of two years, some couples have postponed once, some multiple times, but in essence if you moved your getaway to 2022 or 2023 the time has finally arrived for you to enjoy your dream escape. 

When the world stood still for nearly two years, life still happened. And if there is one thing in life that is guaranteed, it is its unpredictable nature. We are powerless to how life often pans out, the obstacles or highlights it places in our line-up. So, in the same way when weddings and honeymoons were cancelled or postponed, life for these couples didn’t pause for a second. As a consequence, more and more people are now waving goodbye to the traditional order of beginning a relationship, getting married, buying a house then starting a family. As a result, they are faced with the unusual situation of taking the kids on honeymoon? Or more likely choosing to do it twice, firstly with the young family and again when the children are older, just Mum and Dad.

We are also noticing changes in the patterns of how people are choosing to spend their money, opting for smaller intimate wedding celebrations and saving their funds for more exciting travel opportunities, including multiple destination or multiple escapes altogether. Rule number one when it comes to honeymoons is there are no rules!

Whether you are looking to organise honeymoon number 1, 2 or 3 even, our team of expert travel managers have more than 10 years’ experience working in the luxury travel market and are well versed in creating a wide range of itineraries from family-friendly holidays to romantic couples’ breaks.
