National Honeymoon Day — August 14

 

Celebrating the Power of Travel in Relationships

We believe shared experiences like traveling together are what keep love strong, year after year. That's why we created National Honeymoon Day on August 14—a reminder to pause, reconnect, and keep the magic of your dream honeymoon alive. Falling six months after Valentine's Day, this annual tradition invites you to prioritize time together, whether it's a bucket-list adventure or a weekend getaway.

With a Honeyfund honeymoon fund or anniversary fund, and the help of friends and family, it's easier than ever to make meaningful time away part of our story.
