Honeymoon Options - Help!

So my FH and I were set on a winter location in Europe for our honeymoon, but after spending a weekend with my family skiing in my home state, we really liked it and thought it might be a fun way to explore the state we live in and save some money while still enjoying the winter scene. If we chose the state option, we would hopefully save money after spending so much on the wedding and go for an extended vacation to Europe in the spring, summer, or fall, where we can have nicer weather, have more money, and visit more places. But at the same time, I don’t want to just feel like I’m settling. Thoughts?

    Is there a middle ground in there... maybe instead of Europe and instead of your home state, try another place in the US? Maybe one within driving distance but a little further than where you go with your family so it’s new

    You could always do a mini moon in your home state and then do your European honeymoon in one of the other seasons as you stated.

    Hey there, Maddy! I think Gen had a great suggestion, what about doing that? Go somewhere else locally in the US? And then have your European adventure down the line during the Spring/Summer months?

    It is a great idea, but we’re pretty concerned about price and our state has so much skiing and winter adventure opportunity that we’d save money, especially if we used a relative’s condo.

    If it makes more sense financially for you to do it in your home state and save for your future European adventure, go for it. It's all about what works best for the two of you Smiley smile
