 Planning a Wedding? Honeymoon Holidays for Summer Brides  
A summer wedding may mean that you are more likely to receive sunny weather on your big day. However, the school holidays mean costlier airfares, crowded beaches, and the dreaded hurricane season in the Caribbean. Here are some honeymoon ideas.

Holding your wedding ceremony in the summer months of June, July, and August may mean that you are more likely to receive sunny weather on your big day. However, it can limit you when choosing your luxury honeymoon holiday, as the school holidays mean costlier airfares, crowded beaches, and the dreaded hurricane season in the Caribbean.

We have picked our top three honeymoon holiday destinations along with the best month of the year in which to visit them.

June Brides

The tropical island of Mauritius is the perfect honeymoon holiday destination for June brides. The British summer season sees the exotic island at its absolute best with the temperature around a moderate 25 degrees Celsius. During this month, the north of the island is the most temperate and the five-star resort of The Oberoi is one of the perfect luxury destinations for honeymoons.

The hotel is located amongst 20 acres of sub-tropical gardens and has a 600-meter oceanfront. Newlyweds can eat delectable Creole food amongst the stars in the resort's amazing restaurant, while listening to the strange evening song of the frogs.

After all the stresses and strains of organizing your wedding, you are going to need plenty of time away to pamper yourself and this is where the hotel's luxurious spa comes in handy with its extensive range of holistic treatments from aromatherapy to aruyvedic massages.

If you can bring yourselves to leave this incredible resort, then the destination of Mauritius offers plenty for newlyweds to do on their honeymoon holidays, whether it's a walking trip hand-in-hand on the bottom of the Indian Ocean or an excursion to a local rum distillery.

July Brides

July brides should consider taking their luxury honeymoons in the cosmopolitan city of Hong Kong. It may not be the typical honeymoon holiday destination with its lack of palm-fringed beaches and a bustling city atmosphere, but during July the city is arguably its most beautiful and it can be twinned with other Far East beach resorts for a fantastic multi-centre honeymoon.

Hong Kong has more than its fair share of luxury hotels that are just perfect for relaxing honeymoon holidays. Of all these hotels, The Excelsior is one of the most romantic, situated on the waterfront of Hong Kong Harbor and in the heart of the shopping district. The Excelsior is located close to all the major tourist attractions and Hong Kong's highlights include visiting the Giant Buddha at Lantau Island and a tram ride on the world's steepest tram railway at Victoria Peak.

The Excelsior offers Michelin-awarded dining, a world-class spa, and eight private treatment rooms - making it the perfect destination for newlyweds to unwind on their honeymoon holidays.

August Brides

August brides may be marrying in the peak of the summer season, but the onset of the school holidays makes finding a dream honeymoon holiday destination much harder. However, August is the perfect time to visit the romantic island of Bali, a dream island which is perfect year round.

The Melia Bali Villas and Spa Resort are a great value luxury honeymoon destination and provide the perfect base to get away from everything and simply relax. Beautiful lotus ponds stand beside carved stone gods and the hotel offers a whole range of different facilities from four stunning bars to a beautifully sophisticated restaurant presenting a range of local cuisine.

Bali is the quintessential tropical island and its laid-back atmosphere suits everyone from backpackers seeking the perfect place to unwind after their travels to the wealthy in search of luxurious spa resorts. As the island is rich in natural and cultural beauty, it offers a myriad of outdoor activities for you to participate in on your honeymoon holiday from surfing lessons on windswept beaches to holistic treatments and early morning yoga sessions.
