Unveiling Thailand
Your Exclusive Honeymoon Itinerary and Insider Tips
Hello from the newest Mrs. Cohen!!
As a newlywed, my husband and I went on our honeymoon in Thailand which was nothing short of amazing. In the early phases of planning, we considered our honeymoon options which included different destinations and times of year to travel. However we quickly came to the conclusion that we wanted to take the traditional route of going on our honeymoon following our wedding weekend to continue the celebrations, which you can read all about here.
Over the Moons Vacations
After such an incredible trip, I can’t help but feel so extremely fortunate to have had the opportunity to travel across the world in Thailand for 12 nights with the love of my life, just the two of us. Planning a trip like this can be really difficult, especially if you don’t know much about the area like us. However, with the help of our travel agent, Over the Moon Vacations, they made this process feel so seamless - especially as we were in the midst of wedding planning.

Over the Moon specializes in honeymoon planning, although not limited, plus they also help to book your hotel room blocks for your guests on your wedding weekend. To be honest, this part of the wedding planning process was pretty difficult for me to manage on my own, so I’d definitely recommend working with them to help you with your wedding block if this is something you plan to do for your guests. Use code “LEXITOBIN10” for more information when booking your room block with Over the Moon Vacations.
Reasons Why You Should Use a Travel Agent
You may be wondering, why do I even need a travel agent if I get recommendations from friends/family and can book everything on my own?! I’m here to tell you why:
They book everything for you that way you don’t need to lift a finger.
If you’re like me and choose to go on your honeymoon directly after your wedding, you’ll be so in the weeds of wedding planning that you may feel overwhelmed with having to also plan your honeymoon. All it takes with OTM is a few phone calls sharing your budget and travel style that way they can curate the perfect itinerary for you.
They have an emergency line while you’re traveling that you can reach out to for any help throughout your trip.
In case of an emergency, this was comforting to know we always had someone on the line who was available for help. With that said, an emergency line doesn’t only mean the type of emergencies you may be thinking of. For example, on our honeymoon we wanted to change the times of some of our transfers that way we could fit in a few more spontaneous activities throughout our days. With a simple text, OTM was able to reach out to the hotels to help make these changes for us.
You get exclusive perks by booking through them that you wouldn’t normally get if booking on your own.
Travel agencies often have strong relationships with hotels and restaurants, enabling you to get perks through booking with them. For example, at each of the hotels we stayed at, we were greeted with honeymoon decor in our room making us feel special along with complimentary spa packages, food and beverage vouchers, early check-in’s and late check-out’s, free access to the mini-fridge and bar in our rooms and more.
