Honeymoons are generally once-in-a-lifetime holidays on which couples celebrate their newly married status in style and share some fun, relaxation and excitement before settling back into the real world, and not experiencing those things again for a while. Most couples like to spend their honeymoon in luxurious hotels in warm climates, enjoying each other’s company (another thing they may not do in the future!). But for those who want something a little different, here are some unusual honeymoon ideas.
Whatever you’re into, you’re bound to find a themed room for you at the Fantasyland Hotel in Alberta, Canada. The hotel boasts a range of unusual rooms with themes such as Victorian, Roman, sports, Hollywood and the Wild West. It is located in an enormous shopping mall that encompasses an amusement park, water park, golfing facilities and more than 800 shops, restaurants and attractions to keep you occupied should you grow tired of playing cowboys and Indians.
If you prefer something a little classier but a lot less expensive, you could do worse than follow in the footsteps of John and Ann Till from Petersfield, Hampshire. To fund their honeymoon to America, travelling out by boat and then flying back business class, the couple spent two months collecting litter for recycling. They handed in 60,000 items of rubbish to Tesco’s recycling machines and received club card points in return. They then turned the points into 36,000 British Airways air miles. The couple were very grateful to the litterbugs of Petersfield for their wedding gift!
If there is nowhere in the world exceptional enough for your honeymoon then how about somewhere out of this world? In the not-too-distant future, couples could be honeymooning in space. Experts claim that with air travel advancing so rapidly, space travel could become heavily commercialized between 2020 and 2040. You could be flown into space and stay on the moon or in a space hotel where 15 hours would cost an equivalent of two months’ salary. What could be a more perfect honeymoon destination than the moon’s lunar landscape surrounded by the stars, with a beautiful view of the earth slowly spinning miles away? But in light of the current recession, you may want to start saving for your space honeymoon now.
