Getting married? Congratulations. Now, we all know planning a wedding can sometimes be a stressful affair. You have to reserve a location for your ceremony, plan the menu for the reception, book a photographer, etc., etc. Then there's the honeymoon! You have only one choice, and it better be good, right? It is your honeymoon, after all. When was the last time you turned to your future spouse and said, "honey, let's pick someplace mundane for our honeymoon."



Well, if you want a mundane honeymoon destination, I can't help you. But, if you want to honeymoon in of the most gorgeous and romantic spots on earth, then let me suggest Jamaica, an island nation in the Caribbean, known for its scenery and amazing weather. The popular Jamaican poem sums up the tropical climate pretty accurately: “We have neither summer nor winter/Neither autumn nor spring….”

Okay, so it's pretty and the weather's great. Anything else? Consider this: Jamaica is a very popular romantic getaway, chosen by honeymooners the world over, which means that you will have a great choice of resorts that have age restrictions. What does that mean for you? Well, while you two are getting to one another better in your room, you won't hear the endless stream of "Marco" "Polo", "Marco" "Polo" being shouted by children at the pool. In addition, an age-restricted resort usually provides a more romantic atmosphere than one which caters to families. Now, there's nothing wrong with children. You may end up having a few yourselves. But, you don't want to have to hear them on your honeymoon, right?

A couple all-inclusive, adult-only resorts you might look into include:

Hedonism III in Runaway Bay
