Although it might be the case that the number of couples who are getting married is decreasing, millions of us are still proud to say our vows and get married. Getting married is an experience that should stay with you for the rest of your life, but it’s important to do what you can to keep the memory of that special day alive. An effective way of doing that is by having a second honeymoon. This will not just be a great excuse for a holiday (although that’s not a poor excuse for a second honeymoon, either!); it’ll also help you to remember what’s important about your marriage. So, when money is still tight after the recession, why should you go ahead and have that second honeymoon?
Reigniting the Passion
The first reason is the most obvious: you get to spend some time together as a couple and dedicate it to being a couple. Since you got married, you might have had kids, started a high-flying career, or taken up other interests that sap your energy. On your second honeymoon, however, you get to temporarily forget about all of that and remember what’s really important: you and your partner. You could even reaffirm your vows while you’re away on holiday.
Splash out on Yourselves
Following on from the last point, it’s more than likely that since you got married, more and more things have taken priority over your time and money, meaning that ultimately, when it comes to spending money on yourself, it has happened less as time has progressed. Therefore, take some time to spend a little bit of money on you and your partner. You don’t have to spend a fortune on your get away, and you can guide your specific holiday decision based on the star ratings of the resorts.
Celebrate an Anniversary
Finally, what better time to have a second honeymoon than when you’re coming up to an important anniversary? Whether it’s a ten year anniversary or a fifty year anniversary, there’s no better reason to book a special holiday just for you and your partner than to celebrate an important milestone in your lives together.
So as you can see, although your first honeymoon will have been a special event, your second could be just as great, and perhaps even more important. It’s all about celebrating your continued love for each other as a couple, so if you you’re trying to show your partner you still love them after all those years, a second honeymoon is a great way to do it.
