A Scottish honeymoon is your chance to experience the wild, unique, mysterious and romantic nature in this wonderful country! From its historic and cultured cities, to its stunning landscapes and enchanting islands, Scotland is a plainly unforgettable land.
Scotland’s three main cities are Glasgow, Edinburgh and Aberdeen. Although Glasgow is the capital, it is Edinburgh that attracts the most international and local visitors. With the annual International Festival, the incredible variety of architectural heritage and Edinburgh Castle, the former home to the Scottish Royal Family, there is something unique to be discovered. I have been told, one of the greatest pleasures of Edinburgh, is simply strolling though the Georgian area of the city center, admiring the beautiful streets, squares and buildings.
Glasgow has enjoyed a exciting revival over the last two decades! It is a fun and lively capital city, with a great amount to see and do. Alongside the many museums, art galleries, monuments and shops is Glasgow cathedral, a masterpiece from the Gothic era in history.
The port city of Aberdeen is built almost exclusively of silvery granite, which glistens the in sun or rain. There is also a wonderful maritime museum alongside a prestigious art gallery.
St. Andrews is a beautiful town and home to the most famous golf course in the world! Plus there are some fascinating medieval ruins.
The Cairngorm Mountains are spectacular, surrounded by rivers, lochs, forests and home to rare wildlife. This beautiful region is popular for skiing, hiking and water sports. For more breath taking natural beauty, the wild and lonely Hebrides islands, off the west coast, are centers of Scottish whisky production. They offer wonderful views as you explore their coastal walks – windswept cliffs, mountains and bays will take your breath away.
Whisky, bagpipes, tartan and kilts are all inextricably linked with Scotland. Other vital ingredients are the ancient castles, churches, and architecture of every style imaginable. All of this and much more is waiting for you on your Scottish honeymoon.

postheadericon A Honeymoon Registry – what is it?

What is a Honeymoon Registry? Going through the internet and looking up ideas, I came across this intriguing concept. There are more couples getting married after they have lived on their own and are established in apartments or homes.

They are often well set up and have many of the traditional wedding gifts such as pots, cutlery, pans, toasters and dishes. Thus the nature of bridal registry has been changing. One offspring solution to this problem is a “Honeymoon Registry”.

A Honeymoon Registry Services offers a solution for these couples, their friends and family, who still want to buy them meaningful wedding gifts. This is done through a three-step process whereby it is possible to buy parts of the honeymoon as wedding gifts.
First, make contact with your travel agent for assistance in planning your honeymoon. Your travel agent can then suggest different honeymoon destinations and put together packages tailored to your interests.

Step two – your travel agent will then put you in touch with a honeymoon registry service, to finalize your chosen honeymoon activities. Then they set up a registry so that wedding guests can help pay for your dream honeymoon. The honeymoon registry service should be able to make suggestions on possible honeymoon activities.

Step three – after a couples’ honeymoon has been planned, the honeymoon registry service can take those plans and put them into a registry list. Instead of the list containing household items, it contains pieces of a couples’ honeymoon.
Friends and family can help the couple pay for airfare and resort accommodations, and buy romantic gifts, such as a candlelit dinner. The items on honeymoon registry lists can include activities or “extras” that the couple would like to do on their honeymoon.
Honeymoon registries are a new way of helping the couple, begin their life together. Dishes, toasters and china may break or get old, but a honeymoon gift will always be a memory of a special time in their lives.
