1. A Honeymoon Hat

Honeymoon Hat

When you hop off the plane and head to the sunny sands of your honeymoon destination, you will want a wide-brimmed straw hat to shade you from the bright sun. Since your skin might not be ready for heavy rays just yet, a stylish hat is the perfect way to look good while protecting your face and shoulders.

2. A Great Bag

A Great Bag

For your honeymoon, you will need a versatile bag to carry all your essentials down to the beach or out for a day of exploring. I love the texture and colors of a handwoven straw hobo bag. It is exactly the kind of accessory I wish I had brought when we went on our honeymoon to Naples, Florida!

3. A Simple Sandal

A Simple Sandal

Even though you will likely want to go barefoot once your toes hit the sand, you still need a simple yet cute pair of sandals for walking around town. You probably don't want to rely solely on chunky shoes or sneakers, as most of your attire will consist of dresses, shorts, and swimwear. A lovely strappy leather sandal from J.Crew will perfectly match your relaxed, carefree vibe.

4. Shorts to Relax In

Shorts to Relax In

When it is hot and the sun is shining, your main priority is to relax and enjoy a worry-free trip. This is why your wardrobe should include comfortable items like broken-in boyfriend chino shorts. They are fun, breathable, and just the right length to feel comfortable in all day long.

5. The Perfect Swimsuit

The Perfect Swimsuit

You only get one chance to celebrate this wonderful occasion, so finding a swimsuit that makes you feel confident is essential. We all have features we want to highlight and others we prefer to cover. A well-designed tank suit is a fantastic option because it can accentuate your bust while providing comfortable coverage for your stomach, creating a flattering and stylish silhouette.

6. A Summer Dress

A Summer Dress

When you and your sweetheart are heading out to a romantic dinner for two, you will want to look nice without feeling overly formal. A bright, bold print summer dress is the ideal piece for those special nights out. If you are still putting together your itinerary, you might find these tips for planning your honeymoon incredibly helpful.

Have you found the perfect pieces to pack for your honeymoon?
