Want to know where the cool kids are honeymooning? We spoke with Travel Authority agent Mary Surface to find the most popular honeymoon destinations for the local couple who wants to go big:
1. Hawaii
What could be more classic than Hawaii? It’s almost retro, and you know what that’s worth in the wedding biz. The island chain never disappoints with its vibrant beaches, rich history, and intimate and secluded (read: romantic) locations.
