Last Minute Things for the Honeymoon to Score on Amazon Prime Day
Okay, so, we’ve been stalking Joe and Sophie like crazy as they’ve been honeymooning in the Maldives #needtheirlife, and it got us thinking about honeymoon season for summer newlyweds (come to think of it, it kind of extends all year now, right?). When you’re prepping for a wedding and booked your honeymoon a longgg time ago, it kind of falls off the radar and before you know it, you’re getting married and freaking out that you have nothing to bring on vacay.
This is me always: ordering outfits, bathing suits, toiletries, accessories like days before a vacation and holding my breath that all the things get delivered before I need to be packed and on a plane. But for your honeymoon, your first trip as an official together-forever pair, you really need to get your s*** together and make sure you’re good to go even days before you’re wheels up.
Thankfully, we have the rest of today and tomorrow to indulge our Amazon obsession and score some deals while we do it. We rounded up some of the basics and extras you’re going to be so happy you had for this trip - even if you won’t be slumming it at a $10K per night resort like the new Mr. & Mrs. Jonas…
From underwear and lingerie to luggage, cosmetic cases to electronic organizer bags, if you fill up your cart between today and tomorrow, we promise your honeymoon journal will thank you ((and yes, I’ve been there, I distinctly remember scream-writing in my journal about not having ANY of my hair products with me on the first or second day we were in Riviera Maya. Remember that episode of Friends, the one with Monica’s crazy frizz Barbados hair? Yahh, that was me)).

Stock up!!!
Make sure you're checking the weight of your bags before you're en route to the airport... last time I traveled, my husband and I spent 25 minutes transferring things from my bag into his - and we nearly missed our flight.... THIS IS TOTALLY NECESSARY!
Def need to have one of these if you're going anywhere out of the country. Can you deal without your hair dryer?
Speaking of portable hair dryers... this one has US and EU plugs. Awesome!
If you'll be in the water alllll week, we absolutely recommend a lightweight sea spray... and R+Co is one of our favorite brands in life.
Not saying that you immediately mature after getting married, but there is some sort of shift in how you treat your jewelry once you've got an engagement ring and wedding band in tow. That's why we're loving this beautifully printed floral case. So feminine, so functional.
Sure, a trip to Harmon or Target the day before you leave is business as usual, but this is your honeymoon. Get a little fancy.
You're a bride until you get back... so dress the part as much as you want. We're in love with this long lacy kimono cover up; the embroidery makes it look like a bridal gown for the beach 😍😍😍.
What better time to rock the fanny pack trend than your honeymoon? It's not bulky whatsoever, so you can keep your phone, cash, Passport (all the important things) all in one safe place while you go explore. And, gotta say, this one is really chic. If you're going somewhere in Europe, you'll fit right in!
Yes, absolutely stay hydrated when you're honeymooning, but have fun too! Bring some wine along on all of your adventures. Tipsy travel FTW!
If you'll be traveling with a honeymoon scrapbook/journal, you'll definitely want to be filling it up. We're obsessed with this cell phone-powered insta printer from KODAK. You'll never have to worry about taking tons of pics and never doing anything with them after the fact. This makes it SO EASY.
