2. Books to read and share<\/strong>
Add some intellectual stimulation to your honeymoon by packing two books for you both to read and share. Each of you should choose a book you\u2019ve been dying to read, and when you\u2019re done, swap books and read your spouse\u2019s pick. Discussing the books is a great way to get the cerebral stimulation and deep conversation flowing \u2013 intelligence is sexy! If you\u2019re struggling for ideas, here\u2019s a great list<\/a> to get you started.<\/p>\n

7. The Little Black Book of Kama Sutra<\/strong>
The Kama Sutra is a classic for a reason \u2014 the ancient Indian Hindu text is still referred to as the definitive guide to getting it on. The classic text has been updated<\/a> for the modern lover in a small, easy to pack, discreet little black book perfect for spicing things up under the sheets. <\/p>\n

8. Sun protection<\/strong>
Whether you\u2019re planning a beach getaway or a city escape, sun protection is an often overlooked must. Sunscreen can be pricey and difficult to find when away from home, so packing it is the smartest option. A painful sunburn is a sure-fire \u2014 and completely preventable \u2014 way to derail your honeymoon. Besides, rubbing sunscreen on your honey is way sexier than slathering aloe vera on their beet-red skin. Pack a hat, pack sunglasses, pack plenty of sunscreen, and have some fun under those sunny skies!<\/p>\n

9. Stationery<\/strong>
Keep up the loving vibes by writing each other love letters throughout your honeymoon (and beyond). Pack a small notebook (or even just a stack of Post-It notes) and a nice pen, and write each other daily love letters. After the honeymoon, you\u2019ll be able to look back on these sweet words for years to come to reignite those butterflies in your stomach.<\/p>\n

10. At least one amazing outfit<\/strong>
Even if glamming it up isn\u2019t your typical style, a romantic night out will be even more memorable when it\u2019s enjoyed during your honeymoon. Pack one special outfit that makes you feel amazing and then head out for an intimate dinner for two, a night at the theatre, or champagne at a rooftop bar \u2026 and don\u2019t forget to capture your love with a photo or two!<\/p>\n
