In-laws Planning Honeymoon

This would be way too much for me, I would not allow anyone other than my fiance to plan a surprise trip for me haha but since it's paid for, that's nice! I'd just ask them a month or so in advance what temperatures to pack for and what kind of activities, so you know if you need bathing suits or workout clothes or nice clothes, etc. It could still be pretty cold in May in some places. Occasionally it snows in Colorado in May and it's rainy a lot of places in May and June.

This sounds fun and so sweet of them! But I would be totally nervous too. I'm a planner and like to know what to pack. I'd ask them for a list of essential items you'd need to make sure you bring like what types of shoes, swimsuits, etc.

I'm sure you can ask them "what should I pack?".

Honeymoons are VERY Expensive, that is so sweet of them.

Hey Cassandra!! You and I are date twins!!! Congratulations!

Your FILs can probably give you a general idea of the climate where you'll be going, so you know what to pack. Be sure to ask if you'll need to bring something dressy (like for a night out), or any specific kinds of shoes (if there will be hiking, for example). Beyond that, it should be fairly simple.

Hi Cassandra! I work in the travel field and we have had similar situations where in-laws plan the honeymoon, or even the groom or bride plan the honeymoon as a surprise without letting their partner in on any of the details. In any case, but especially when it's a surprise, we provide a packing list for the couple, so I'd recommend you ask them for something similar! I'm a planner too, and I hate to arrive on holiday and realize I'd brought all the wrong things, or didn't have appropriate clothing for planned events and activities.

If they're not comfortable to provide you with a packing list, maybe you can ask a travel-savvy friend or family member to liaise with your in-laws to put something together? Just a thought. Best of luck!
