December Honeymoon?

I'm taking my honeymoon later this month in January. My husband didn't want to because of the weather but I just wanted to go somewhere asap. We chose Portugal. It's not going to be beach weather, but at least it'll be in the low 60s, which is way better than the 20s we're experiencing in NY right now!

If you truly want "warm" in December, consider options in the southern hemisphere where the seasons are opposite of ours in the northern hemisphere. If you're just talking, "not frigid" in December, then consider options in US "sunbelt" states, like FL, CA, AZ, etc. We live in So Cal, it will be 75 and sunny today; we think that's "winter weather," but our relatives in the midwest and northeast think it's downright tropical.

Hey Elaine! This sounds like a great plan, especially if it fits better with your work schedule!

What about warm places in Europe? Any recommendations?

Europe is typically cold in December. For example, the temperatures you would expect in Greece would be highs of 57°F and in France at 45.5°F. If you're looking for a warm climate honeymoon, Europe may not be the best bet!

I am currently off from work and I know that this will be the same in February as well. Knowing that, any January-February honeymoon suggestions?

Are you just interested in finding a place in europe..especially if you want really warm weather?

We are doing the same. Wedding is 10/4 but honeymoon will be in January. We are doing a cruise to the Bahamas. We definitely wanted warm.
