The Where in the World Series: America the Beautiful
If you had to pick one of the 50 states for your honeymoon destination you’d probably pick Hawaii right? Not that there’s anything wrong with Hawaii — it’s one of the top honeymoon destinations — but the USA offers a whole lot more than this tropical paradise.

For newlyweds who consider themselves more the outdoors type, RockResorts offer a variety of destinations for hikers, snow bunnies and those looking for a bit of luxury closer to home.
Each resort is indigenous to their surroundings, so whichever RockResorts location you choose you’ll be immersed in the food and culture of the area. From spa services to hot air balloon rides to outdoor activities - golf, skiing, white water rafting and biking – there’s plenty to do both outside as well as indoors on your honeymoon.
And the best thing about traveling to a domestic honeymoon destination…less of a hassle at the airport — you won’t have to worry about packing your passport, bringing an electrical outlet converter or exchanging your US dollars for a foreign currency.

Wedding Planning Tip: Save yourself some time by writing your wedding thank you notes on the plane and mailing them from your hotel. If you’re honeymooning in one of the 50 states you won’t have a postage problem. But, if you’re honeymoon is at an international location remember that you cannot use US stamps to mail your thank yous out, so write your notes on the plane and mail them when you get back home.
