Lace is a beautiful and delicate fabric and it also brings a sense of romance to a wedding dress, so it’s easy to see why it is incorporated…
After the romantic wedding, comes the romantic honeymoon. Whether you’re jet-setting overseas for an island getaway or heading up the coast of your homeland, there are bound to be endless options of exciting things to do together.
Here are a few ideas for honeymoon inspiration.
1. Scuba diving
Exploring on foot is one thing but getting to know the underwater world is unlike any other experience. With a team of trained professionals, you and your partner can dive deep and explore the oceanic wonders. It really is a world of its own. It’s also the perfect opportunity to snap some unique pics together.
2. Hiking
If you’re on a beach honeymoon, then there’s bound to be a viewpoint of sorts. If you and your partner are quite active, you will enjoy spending some time in the great outdoors. It’s a chance to get in touch with nature and appreciate the beauty of the natural world. Think of those breath-taking scenes that will paint the perfect backdrop for your honeymoon photos.
3. Get to know the locals
Exploring the local town you are staying in, is best done on foot. It gives you the chance to interact and talk to the locals, to find out inside information on hidden gems, like restaurants or things to see in the town. It also gives you the chance to immerse yourself in the the culture. This helps you to gain a whole new perspective on a place you were once unfamiliar with.
4. Appreciate the beauty
If walking, hiking and diving aren’t for the newly wed couple, you can simply just appreciate the beauty. Spend your days on the balcony, on the beach under a palm tree or on a guided tour of your destination. Make sure you enjoy the sunrises and sunsets. Take a stroll by the ocean and venture out for romantic candle lit dinners. This is your honeymoon after all.
5. Sky diving or parasailing
If you’re looking for an extreme honeymoon be sure to check out sky diving. Enjoy the adrenaline rush while you and your partner embark on this adventure. If sky diving is a bit too extreme, opt for parasailing behind a boat. Both get you sky high and are a thrill-seeker’s dream come true.
6. Dancing
Where there is people, there is dancing. Even if you have two left feet dancing can be so much fun. Ask aorund for local dancing spots near where you’re staying and head out. It’s romantic and exhilarating. Enjoy the wiggle and laugh.
7. Spa day
While a couples spa day is appropriate on any honeymoon, take some time to spoil yourselves wherever you choose to go. Indulge in a hot rock massage, relaxing in a steam room or soothing facial. Some spa’s even have couple packages so you and your partner don’t have to loose any time together.

Proposing is a special and memorable event, but it doesn’t have to be over the top to make an impact. Here are some unique and simple ways to…
Traditionally, it has always been that the man proposes to the woman. But in this day and age where gender roles are changing and same-sex relationships are legal and accepted, more and more women are bending the knee.
Just do it
Whether you’re a woman in a same-sex relationship or a straight relationship, you should disregard what is traditionally accepted and be able to propose to your partner. If you feel the time is right and that you and your partner are in a place to get married, there is no need to wait for them to propose; you can ask them to marry you.
The moment
The proposal should go the same as any traditional proposal in the sense that you plan the proposal. Look at creating a special moment that will become a beautiful memory in your relationship.
A symbol of love
If you are a woman proposing to a woman, then it is likely that you will present an engagement ring. If you’re a woman proposing to a man, you should consider presenting some sort of gift that they can keep forever and has sentiment to it. A great proposal gift for a man is a watch, and a great addition to that would be to get it engraved.
Despite the fact that a woman proposing is not the norm, it certainly should be. With the dismantling of gender roles, leaving proposals solely up to men should be dismantled too.
At the end of the day, it is a decision to get married and it should not matter who asked whom.

Planning the perfect proposal is nerve-wracking, exciting and maybe even a little overwhelming, all bundled up neatly into one big knot in your stomach. Throw in an unfamiliar destination, and that knot gets a little bigger. But don’t fear, we’ve got the fool-proof guide to making it go as smoothly as possible:
Do your research beforehand
By planning ahead, you’ll take a little pressure off yourself as well as have more peace of mind about how it’s all going to play out. Have a plan of where, how and when you’d like to pop the question, but don’t expect it to work out exactly as you see it in your head. When the moment is right, you’ll know, but also don’t be too stressed about changing it up in case of unforeseenable elements, like the weather.
That said, make sure you’re aware of what’s happeing in the area you’re planning to propose in, especially if you’ve never been there. Do a little internet search beforhand to see if any events are happening, if the area is a sacred place perhaps, or if any of the areas are restricted. It will also be handy to look at popular scenic locations, or romantic spots that other people have popped the question at for some inspiration.
Communicate with your hotel
…or resort, B&B, or wherever you’re planning on staying. Even if you’re not planning to propose at the place you’re staying at, they’ll most likely make some extra effort to make it romantic for you if they know what your plans are. Some places even organise some complimentary champagne, a romantic dinner, or some rose petals in your room for after you’ve popped the question.
Insure the ring
Before you even leave for your getaway, make sure the ring is insured. Things happen, but if you’re planning to propose while away, it’s the last thing you’d want to worry about. Get the ring insured for in case a stone pops out, or heaven forbid, it gets misplaced or stolen. It’s the responsible thing to do anyway, plus it will put your mind at ease.
Hide the ring, safely
Packing is stressful enough as it is, or at least for some. But making sure the ring stays safely hidden from your fiance-to-be’s eyes is extra daunting. If you don’t want to worry about it falling out of your pocket, or your partner accidentally seeing it in your bag, pack it in your check-in luggage. However, if you’re scared of your luggage getting lost or delayed (because yes, these things happen), keep it safely stashed in your carry-on. Rather safe than sorry, right?
Furthermore, if you’re worried about it being discovered at customs, it’s a good idea to place the ring box inside a bigger, nondescript box with a note inside to give the inspector or security guard a quick heads up in case they have to take a closer look.
Don’t wait until the last minute to propose
You want to wait for that perfect moment, but don’t wait until the last day of the trip. Nerves might not be your best friend, so your partner might notice that you’re acting a little differently. A little anticipation is good, especially if your partner is kind of expecting it, but if you propose earlier on, you’ll have more time to celebrate it in a special place.
Don’t overthink it
Sometimes it’s best to just go with your gut. If the moment feels right, go for it, even if it doesn’t go with your plans. Being spontaneous and it being unexpected sometimes makes the moment that much more special.
