When you are going on your honeymoon, no doubt you want to make the time as romantic as possible. You’ll want to have a honeymoon that leaves you with wonderful memories that will last a lifetime. Romantic honeymoons are very possible. To have the most romantic getaway possible, here are a few tips and ideas.
Tip #1 – Get the Special Honeymoon Suite – It is well worth it to stay in a honeymoon suite on the first night of your lives as a married couple. Even if you can only afford to book it for one night. Go ahead and spend the money at least for one night because the lavish suite is something you’ll never forget.
Tip #2 – Go Somewhere New – If you want romance, you need to embrace adventure as a couple. This is a definite way to make your honeymoon even more romantic. Going somewhere new and different will bring the two of you closer together.
Tip #3 – Bring Some Music – For romantic honeymoons, taking along some of your favorite romantic music is a great way to breathe a little romance into the air. Romantic music can get the both of you in the mood for walking on a beach at night, slow dancing, or simply having a romantic evening together. It’s a grand way to set the mood.
Those are just a few of some of the many things couples can do to create romantic honeymoons. Keep a journal to record the special moments, use candlelight, and have some strawberries with wine to set the romantic mood. The most important thing is to be sure that you have wonderful and romantic time as a couple.

For many years skincare has been the sole preserve of the ladies. After all, men don’t need it, do they?
As I came downstairs to breakfast the other day, my wife stroked my cheek lovingly.
‘Your skin is so soft!’ she said almost wonderingly. ‘I really don’t know how you manage it!’
Now my wife is a dear, dear woman but she thinks that a soft skin is only achievable by using amounts of night cream, day cream, anti-wrinkle cream (not that she has any anyway!), protein cream and just about any other cream that the cosmetic companies can dream up.
She, like many other ladies, is convinced that many men have made a pact with the Prince of Darkness in return for facial skin that is not only soft but free from spots and blemishes. I will probably be marked for use as a bridge support filler or receive a nice pair of concrete overshoes from the League For Excessively Scratchy Chins for revealing the truth but I can contain myself no longer: men really do use skincare products!
There. I’ve said it. What a relief to finally ‘come out’ (about men’s skin, that is). The thing that is different about men’s facial skincare and that used by women is that men don’t pay anywhere near as much for theirs – and that’s because men do something to their faces every day that women never, ever do. They shave.
Now I know women shave their legs and sometimes other unmentionable bits. All we men know that. But they don’t do it every day. So why does that make a difference?
Oh, well, the cat’s out of the bag now so I may as well tell you everything. The act of shaving, when done daily, is an excellent exfoliant. A razor doesn’t only take away the stubble from the chins and cheeks of the average male, it also removes quite a few of the old dermal cells. This tends to leave our homely pans soft and smooth – especially if you use (as an increasing number of today’s guys do) a straight razor.
That’s the reason why – when we’re freshly planed off – the facial skin of your everyday male is as soft as a woman’s that has had enough cream on it to make a raspberry pavlova. The only problem is that it doesn’t last. Hence the tendency in recent years for an increasing number of guys to reach for the bottle.
The skincare-for-men bottle, that is. I’m not convinced that I am the first to have uttered this truth as to the original method of skincare for men – shaving – and doubtless the cosmetic companies’ intelligence task force has been keeping their ear well and truly stuck to the floor over the years. So what do we have now? You got it in one – cream for men.
Oh, they don’t call it ‘cream’. Far too girly. It’s called ‘rejuvenating facial cream’ or something equally crafty – it simply wouldn’t do to call it ‘day cream’ or ‘cool night cream’, would it? It’s done like this. After we men have carefully eradicated all traces of stubble, in proper manly fashion with some horribly sharp steel, we are smiled at from some webpage by an incredible hunk with biceps like footballs and a six-pack made of very large ballbearings who suggests that it would be a good idea to – moisturise our skin!
And do you know what the worst thing about it is? Yep. It works. Guess what I got for Christmas last year? Worse still, guess what I bought recently? Resistance, as has been said, was futile.
The male skincare culture steamroller is gathering momentum. We poor males, hapless victims of our own primitive but effective skincare method, have been sucked into mainstream skincare by forces we can hardly comprehend. What happened to the good old days when the only perfume men wore was good, honest sweat and we all changed our socks once a week even if they were reasonably pong-free? When boxer shorts were things boxers wore and after-shave lotion was considered only fit for wearing on a hot date?
Don’t know about you but I sure thank my lucky stars they’re firmly in the past! Now where’s my anti-aging wrinkle-destroying masculine protein emollient?

Traditionally, brides were extremely limited in their sexy bridal sweater choices. Women were expected to legacy perfume demure and virginal on their wedding nights, and bridal lingerie choices reflected that innocence. Today, however, while supporting the wedding gown remains a key function, style choices have exploded. Provided here is a guide to new and daring sexy bridal lingerie.
Buy the Dress First
Keep in mind that your bridal lingerie should be matched to the wedding dress. Therefore, it is important to buy your gown first. When dress-shopping, it is easy to take along several styles of your regular lingerie. This will allow you to try on the gown over multiple alternatives, helping you to decide what works best under your particular dress.
When shopping for your sexy bridal lingerie, it would be impractical to take the wedding dress along. Instead, bring the pieces that you wore when you purchased the gown. Sometimes it is helpful to bring along photos of the gown, which can help you more accurately remember such details as neckline and waist cinching.
Buy Multiple Items
Even with photos, it can be difficult to know precisely how your wedding gown will look over a particular piece of sexy bridal lingerie. If you have any doubts, buy multiple styles of the same basic piece. Although it may be difficult or impossible to return lingerie, you are sure to find a use for the extras on your honeymoon.
Be Decadent
Today’s sexy bridal lingerie is daring and sensual. Remember that is the first lingerie your new husband will see after the wedding ceremony. Whether it is your first time together or you have been living together for years, daring lingerie is a great way to kick off the honeymoon. Look for barely-there thong panties, a see-through bustier or a plunging neckline on a sexy chemise.
Why Not Wear Black?
A white wedding dress need not mean demure white lingerie. Wedding gowns are heavy, impossible to see through. Therefore, give yourself and your groom a hidden secret with forbidden black sexy bridal lingerie. Share the secret with your man before the ceremony or let him be shocked later that night. The choice is yours.
Sexy, Supportive and Comfortable
In today’s lingerie market, it is possible to find bridal lingerie that is not only supportive enough to hold up the dress and sexy enough to make a splash on the wedding night, but also surprisingly comfortable. Look for pieces with soft, sensual linings. Boning and underwire should be carefully encased in soft padding to prevent chafing. Remember, no matter how good the lingerie looks, red welts and scratches are not sexy.
Don’t Forget the Honeymoon
While your sexy bridal lingerie is perhaps the most important, you will have an entire honeymoon full of opportunities to show off your body. Keep the wedding theme alive with a variety of bridal lingerie styles, or scrap them altogether for something a bit wild. Either way, your lingerie choices can help to ensure a honeymoon to remember.
