Setting a wedding date is hard enough, but having to figure where you’ll be spending your honeymoon is a whole other story. Unfortunately, this isn’t something you can pick from the top of your head. Nor does it require excessive research. The timing of your honeymoon is just as important (if not more) than the location itself.

More people are opting for mini-moons for various reasons, and I can’t blame them! After spending thousands of dollars on a wedding, the…

So, yes, even I can admit that I know zilch about football except for the name Tom Brady, whose face dominated my Instagram feed thanks to all the Patriots fans I surprisingly know.
