You and your spouse are starting a new life together and that no doubt means you need some new stuff. When planning your dream honeymoon, remember to include lingerie in your budget.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Pick Nightwear and Sleepwear

Step1
Get some trashy bustiers, high cut bikinis, garter belts and stockings with high heels. You're going on your honeymoon, so make the most of it!
Step2
Select at least one indulgence. A high quality long lasting peignoir set, for example, is something you are likely to wear again after your wedding night. Choose a long silky gown and robe or a well made lacy nightie that you can wear for a few years after you get married.
Step3
Select lingerie according to your honeymoon destination. Buy something appropriate for the weather in the region you are visiting or that fits with your wedding theme. You might choose vintage style lingerie for a trip to the old world or colors of the country's flag where you are vacationing.
Step4
Honeymoon in style. Are you a modern young wife or a romantic dreamer? Do you like plain cotton fabrics or light, lacy ones? There is lingerie for everyone from those who like glamour, flirty fun fashions and designer lingerie to those who like to roleplay their kinky fantasies.
Step5
Make room in your suitcase for practical lingerie. No doubt you will venture outside of your hotel room at some point during your vacation. When that happens, you will probably want to wear actual underwear under your clothes. Some everyday undergarments might not be a bad idea to add to your honeymoon shopping list.
Step6
Pick lingerie according to the time of year that you get married. There is lingerie with holiday themes (like Christmas and Valentine's Day), as well as different colors for every season. Select heavier fabrics like velvet and velour for Winter and satin and lace for Spring.
Step7
Purchase a few sex toys to enhance your good time. Use them to accessorize your lingerie or to add to your honeymoon experience.
Step8
Remember that the groom can wear lingerie, too. Men's honeymoon indulgences include sexy silk boxers with a matching robe or novelty g-strings (see Resources below). Even if your guy isn't into the fancy stuff, chances are he would like some new boxers and t-shirts to wear for his new bride.

Tips & Warnings

  • As with shopping for anything else, it's helpful to make a lingerie shopping list before you go to the store.
  • You can register for lingerie items when you register for other gifts. Any large department store will have its own lingerie department, or register with a specialty lingerie boutique.
  • Try everything on before you buy it. Not all lingerie is returnable and there is nothing worse than going on your honeymoon only to find that your new bra is too small and rides up on your back.
