Set a budget
Remember that you are planning a budget honeymoon. So, the most important part is to decide on an amount and stick to it. Make sure to include everything such as airfare, accommodation, food, sightseeing, shopping etc. A better idea is to make it a part of your wedding planning expense.
Research about honeymoon destinations
Choosing the right honeymoon destination can help you save a lot. Consider less popular locations or travel within the country instead of going abroad. Also, pick a destination where the dollar has not deflated. The poor exchange rate can easily sabotage your budget.

Consider an all-inclusive package
Not only it is less of a hassle, an all inclusive package assures substantial savings. You get a clear estimate of how much your holiday will cost and can plan accordingly. Consider booking through a travel agent as they can fetch you better deals and discounts.
Opt for honeymoon registry

The way you register for wedding gifts, same way you can create a honeymoon registry. If you have plenty of linens and china’s why not setup a honeymoon registry and have your guests pay for your vacation in lieu of traditional gifts.
Fly off-peak
Flights are often less expensive on selected days of the week. For instance, if you are going domestic, fly weekends to avoid business travelers, whereas, if you are travelling abroad, you can get a better deal by starting on a Monday or Tuesday.
Overall, a budget honeymoon does not have to be anything less than an ideal trip. All you need is some flexibility, careful and early planning.
