The first trip of the rest of it, planned slowly

You’ve just planned a wedding. You’re done with spreadsheets. Graham and two other honeymoon specialists take it from here, down to which side of the villa gets the sunset.

What a Sunmile honeymoon feels like

Most honeymoons go wrong in the gaps: a three-hour wait for a seaplane, a room facing the generator, a dinner booked on the one night the restaurant is closed. We plan the gaps first.

Every route is built around your pace. Usually that means two places, not four; one big moment a day; and at least one night that costs more than it should, because it’s worth it. We call ahead to every property to tell them why you’re there, which is how couples end up with the corner villa and a cake nobody ordered.

How we plan it, stop by stop

Ideally six to nine months before the wedding. We’ve done it in three weeks, too.

Week 1 · The call

Tell us about the two of you

Beach or mountains, lie-ins or sunrises, how much is too much. Thirty minutes, both of you if you can.

Week 1 · Two routes

Two sketches with real prices

Usually one you expect and one you don’t. Both priced per person with flights and taxes in.

Weeks 2–3 · Refine

Swap, stretch and splurge

We hold rooms while you decide, and set up your registry page if you want one.

Before the wedding · Book

A 20% deposit, then forget about it

Balance due 60 days before departure. Documents land in one app a fortnight before you fly.

After the party · Go

We check in, quietly

One message on arrival, then silence unless you need us. Your designer’s line stays open the whole trip.

Honeymoon questions we hear every week

Something else on your mind? Graham answers email himself.

hello@sunmile.travel
How far ahead should we book our honeymoon?
Six to nine months gives you the best villas and flight prices, especially for the Maldives in December or Greece in June. Three months is fine for most places. Under six weeks, we'll still try, and we'll tell you honestly what's left.
What if the wedding date moves?
Your 20% deposit is fully refundable for 14 days after booking. After that, we move dates for free wherever the hotels and airlines allow, and we'll show you any change fee before you agree to it.
Can wedding guests contribute through a registry?
Yes. We set up a private registry page with items like "sunset dinner on Naxos" or "two nights in the overwater villa". Gifts go straight onto your booking balance; any surplus becomes travel credit valid for three years.
Is planning really free?
When you book flights and stays through us, there's no planning fee: hotels and partners pay our commission. If you only want an itinerary to book yourself, our design fee is $250, credited back if you book within 60 days.
Do you arrange travel insurance and visas?
We quote insurance from two US providers with cancel-for-any-reason cover, and send a visa and entry checklist for each country on your route. Remember to book under the names on your passports, not your married names, unless they've already changed.
