Did you know that honeymoon getaways have changed dramatically over time and that some traditions associated with these getaways are downright shocking? The origination of the honeymoon in fifth-century European cultures required couples to consume a month’s worth of mead (a potent honey-based liquor) supplied by family members who checked to make sure it was all consumed.
In some societies, grooms were required to kidnap brides during an elaborate ritual in which her family tries to find her, while other honeymoons were taken expressly for the purpose of avoiding the payment of a dowry. Almost as distressing was the tradition of couples who were required to split time between both sets of in-laws during their honeymoons!
What a difference 15 centuries make. Anything goes these days, yet only one type of honeymoon has managed to retain a reputation for bliss over time: The private island vacation. It remains the fondest wish of romantics to escape to privacy and intimacy and happily, today’s private island honeymoon is no longer available only to the rich and famous.
