Honeymoon trends 2023

Tailor-made travel

The summer of 2022 marked the end of the coronavirus pandemic and the restrictions imposed by Covid. Since then, we’ve been travelling again in full force: we want to see everything, and we’re increasingly travelling at our own pace. Honeymoons, too, are more often being put together by the couple themselves, entirely according to their own wishes.

Digital Detox

We live in a world where we wake up with our smartphone, spend hours on our computer during work, and then snuggle up together on the sofa in the evening to Netflix. A digital detox has never been more relevant. More and more couples ask their guests not to take out their phones during the big day. The same goes for the honeymoon: couples increasingly book hotels without Wi-Fi and switch their phones to flight mode, using them only as a camera. A must-try for your 2023 honeymoon!

Environmentally friendly

Flying is the most commonly used way to travel on honeymoon, because the destination is often a bit farther away. In 2023, however, we see couples increasingly choosing airlines that are committed to the environment. And once at the destination, they opt for public transport wherever possible.

Unique experiences

In 2023, newlyweds are looking for unique experiences. If you already try to see a lot of the world in everyday life, it’s definitely recommended during your honeymoon! Book a week of relaxation on a private island, stay in a treehouse hotel in the vast jungle, or charter a sailing yacht and cruise romantically along the Côte d’Azur, just the two of you. Picture perfect!

Outside peak season

The summer months are the most popular time to go on honeymoon. That’s mainly because many couples get married in late spring and summer, and then leave for their honeymoon straight afterwards. In 2023, however, couples are increasingly opting for a honeymoon during the low season. By travelling outside peak season, you can enjoy even more luxury with the same budget! In many places, off-season temperatures are still pleasant, with plenty of sunshine.
