When will this Day be celebrated?  August 14th of each calendar year.

What is National Honeymoon Day?  

Honeymoon Day is a day to celebrate what happens AFTER the wedding. It’s about keeping the honeymoon going, long after the vows have been exchanged and guests have gone home. Some may think that a honeymoon is a one-time event, but studies have shown how important it is to continue to spend quality time with your partner. In fact, honeymoon-style travel may be key to keeping a love relationship going. And keeping the love alive is what Honeymoon Day is all about.
 

Why is this day being created?  

Honeymoons play a special role in a marriage — they serve as a springboard for the special and intimate connection that will keep the couple in love for the long term. Valentine’s Day reminds us to appreciate our partners once a year, but National Honeymoon Day — 6 months later — reminds us to create intimacy and connection in everyday life as a way of keeping honeymoon feelings alive throughout a marriage. In the peak of wedding and honeymoon season, August 14 is the perfect day to celebrate your love by taking some honeymoon-style time away.

How should this day be observed?   

On this date, Honeyfund, the wedding gift registry that makes honeymoons happen, recommends doing something with your loved one that reminds you of your honeymoon. Did you lounge on a beach sipping fruity cocktails together? Then make some time on Honeymoon Day to break out the blender and lounge chairs for a little trip down memory lane. Did you wander through the streets of Paris? Open a bottle of French wine and plan your next travel adventure. Even if you can’t make it to the City of Light, you can evoke the feeling of your honeymoon with a date night to your local French restaurant. Didn’t take a honeymoon trip? Honeymoon Day is the time to plan the trip that got away. Even if you aren’t married yet, you can celebrate Honeymoon Day with a romantic candlelit dinner. Making time for romance is proven to help make a relationship last.
