From an Instax Camera to a Custom Beach Tote Bag: Here’s What I Packed for my Honeymoon!
Honeymoons are a special time for newlyweds – a time full of love, adventure, and making memories that will last a lifetime. As a newlywed myself, I recently embarked on my own honeymoon journey and I couldn’t be more excited to share with you all the essentials I packed for this once-in-a-lifetime trip. From capturing cherished moments with an Instax camera, to lounging in style with a custom beach tote bag, here is my ultimate honeymoon packing list.
1. Instax Camera
As someone who loves taking photos, it was a no-brainer for me to bring along my trusty Instax camera. This polaroid camera captures every moment in an instant and produces tangible memories that you can hold onto forever. Whether it’s a romantic sunset walk on the beach or a fun excursion in the city, the Instax camera is a must-have for any honeymoon.
2. Kindle
I am an avid reader and I knew I couldn’t leave for my honeymoon without my Kindle. Reading a good book while lounging by the pool or on the beach is the epitome of relaxation for me. And with a Kindle, I was able to pack multiple books in one lightweight device, making it the perfect travel companion.
3. Sunscreen and After-Sun Care
Protecting your skin is a must, especially when spending long hours under the sun on your honeymoon. I made sure to pack a good quality sunscreen with a high SPF and also added some after-sun care products to soothe and moisturize my skin after a day in the sun.
4. Custom Beach Tote Bag
No honeymoon is complete without a beach day, and I wanted to make sure I had the perfect bag to carry all my beach essentials. I came across a beautiful custom beach tote bag that I had personalized with my initials – not only did it look chic, but it also held all my beach essentials in one place.
5. Comfortable Walking Shoes
Exploring a new place is one of the most exciting parts of a honeymoon, but it can also mean a lot of walking. I made sure to pack a comfortable pair of shoes that I could wear on long walks and still look stylish.
6. Swimsuits and Cover-Ups
A honeymoon is the perfect excuse to wear all your favorite swimsuits and cover-ups. I made sure to pack a variety of options to suit different moods and occasions. From a simple one-piece for lounging by the pool to a flowy cover-up for a beachside dinner, I had all my bases covered.
7. Skincare and Makeup Essentials
Just because you’re on vacation doesn’t mean you should skip out on your skincare routine. I made sure to pack all my essential skincare and makeup products to keep my skin looking healthy and radiant throughout my honeymoon.
8. Outfits for Every Occasion
I wanted to look and feel my best on my honeymoon, so I made sure to pack a mix of dressy and casual outfits. From flowy maxi dresses for romantic dinners to cute sundresses for exploring during the day, I had something for every occasion.
9. Travel-Sized Toiletries
To save space and weight in my luggage, I opted for travel-sized toiletries. From mini shampoos and conditioners to a small toothpaste, these tiny versions of my everyday essentials helped me pack efficiently and stay within my luggage weight limit.
10. First-Aid Kit
It’s always better to be prepared for any unexpected situations, especially when traveling to a new place. That’s why I packed a small first-aid kit with essentials like band-aids, painkillers, and anti-nausea medication, just in case.
11. Lingerie
A honeymoon is the perfect opportunity to showcase your favorite lingerie and make your partner feel extra special. I made sure to pack a mix of comfortable and sexy pieces to suit different moods and occasions.
12. Honeymoon-Related Items
Lastly, I made sure to pack some fun and quirky items to celebrate our honeymoon. From “just married” flip-flops to matching couple t-shirts, these little touches added to the excitement and made our honeymoon even more special.
