From the article: Why Have a Honeymoon?
Do you think it's essential to take a honeymoon after your wedding? If so, what do you think the most important reason is to take a honeymoon? What's Your Reason?

Yes!

Its absolutely okay to take a honeymoon, only if you both agreed on it and saved enough. Its fantastic, especially to those who like outdoor entertainment.

No, an insult to those with nothing

LOTS of people around the world do not have money to feed their children, pay for the roof over their heads, and scramble every single month to pay for the bare essentials. Just because you decided to spend your life with the person you love you think you are somehow entitled to a 3, 5, or 7 day exotic vacation? Please. Get over yourself and start being responsible with your money.

Yes, honeymoons are essential

So much goes into the wedding that you need a vacation! And weddings are such big social occasions that you also need the time to just kick back and be together. Unfortunately, if you both have jobs, it can be tough to get enough time off to do both the wedding and the honeymoon. But in my book, you shouldn't short the honeymoon just because you need more time to get ready for the wedding.
