Post-Pandemic, Newlyweds Spend More On Honeymoon

Data shows that since the pandemic, newlywed couples are spending more time and money on their honeymoons.

The honeymoon registry, Honeyfund, said couples are spending an average of$4,800 now, compared to $3,400 pre-pandemic.

Meanwhile, resort managers said honeymooners are staying almost twice as long.

"Through the pandemic, couples have felt like they have been refrained from what they can do," Angela Veto, the general manager at the Wailea Beach Resort in Hawaii said. "They want to really be able to celebrate."

One beach resort said couples are indulging in more private experiences such as romantic oceanfront dinners and floating pool cabanas.

Additionally, Honeyfund said couples are getting more in gifts as well, with an average of about $1,900.
