The stars already know where you should escape for your first trip as newlyweds...

Wedding season is almost here, and while half your guest list is debating whether the sangeet playlist should end with Bollywood or Beyoncé, you’re already dreaming about the best part, the honeymoon. The chaos of outfit trials, family WhatsApp groups, and endless guest lists will pass… but the memory of that first trip together as a married couple? That stays.

And because we all know not every newlywed is looking for the same thing, some crave mountain air, others demand private islands, and a few want nothing more than an infinity pool with champagne service, the zodiac might just be the smartest honeymoon planner you’ll ever meet. Here’s your star-aligned guide to the ultimate honeymoon destinations.

Aries wants movement, adventure, and just a dash of drama. Skip the cookie-cutter resorts and you’ll thrive in places where adrenaline meets luxury. Think white-water rafting in Rishikesh, followed by a riverside spa retreat, or paragliding over Bir-Billing with a boutique mountain stay. International spin? Iceland’s lava fields and glacier lagoons.

You’re ruled by Venus, and indulgence is your language. Picture yourself in Udaipur, sipping wine on a private boat across Lake Pichola before returning to your suite at the Oberoi Udaivilas. Closer to home, a vineyard stay in Nashik with curated wine tastings fits your slow, sensual pace. Bonus: Tuscany is calling if you’re willing to fly.

Geminis need variety and stimulation. You’re not here to just “relax,” you’re here to experience. Jaipur is perfect: bustling bazaars, palaces, rooftop cocktails, and cultural chaos. Or head to Goa — one day it’s silent yoga, next day it’s beach parties. For the long haul, Barcelona or Tokyo match your dual personality.

Cancerians are ruled by the moon; they are sensitive, nostalgic, and deeply romantic. Kerala backwaters are your sanctuary: houseboats with candlelit dinners, Ayurvedic massages, and slow mornings watching mist over the lagoons. If you want privacy, a secluded Himachali homestay surrounded by apple orchards will feel like a warm hug.

Leos don’t do subtle. You want a honeymoon that’s regal, dramatic, and Instagram-worthy. Jaipur’s Rambagh Palace or Jodhpur’s Umaid Bhawan Palace will treat you like royalty, with literal palatial suites, elephants at the entrance, and butlers on call. Or fly to Dubai, where luxury is dialled up to max. Either way, your honeymoon is a performance, not a pause.

Virgos crave meaning and meticulous detail. Ananda in the Himalayas is practically designed for you, yoga at sunrise, organic meals, and curated wellness therapies. You’ll love the clean air, the order, and the balance. If you’re looking abroad, Kyoto’s serene temples and Japanese onsens will soothe your perfectionist soul.

For Libras, balance and beauty are everything. Lake Como is your dream abroad, but in India? Kashmir in spring, tulips in bloom, shikara rides on Dal Lake, and snow-capped peaks in the distance. Or head to Pondicherry, where French colonial charm, chic cafes, and art-filled stays fit your elegant vibe.

Scorpios don’t want generic honeymoons; you want mystery, passion, and privacy. Andaman Islands fit perfectly: private beaches, diving into coral reefs, and sunsets that feel cinematic. For something moodier, Coorg’s coffee estates with misty mornings will match your deep, magnetic energy.

The zodiac’s globetrotters, Sagittarians, crave wide horizons. Ladakh’s stark landscapes, monasteries, and road trips will thrill you, with luxury stays tucked in between rugged drives. If you’re looking abroad, Patagonia or New Zealand road trips are your playground. Just don’t tie yourself down to one place, you need movement.

You love understated luxury and timeless classics. Shimla’s colonial charm or Darjeeling’s tea estates give you elegance without the chaos. But for a truly luxe escape, nothing beats the Taj Falaknuma Palace in Hyderabad, chandeliers, marble, and history wrapped into an opulent stay. Abroad? Swiss Alps or Amalfi Coast.

Aquarians like their honeymoons quirky and unconventional. Rajasthan’s desert glamping at The Serai in Jaisalmer, complete with private plunge pools under the stars, will delight you. Or try Meghalaya for waterfalls, living root bridges, and caves. Abroad, think Iceland or Namibia.

Pisces need water, romance, and a touch of fantasy. The Maldives are your obvious match: overwater villas, infinity pools, and endless ocean. In India, Havelock Island’s beaches or a luxury stay in Kovalam will satisfy your oceanic soul. Add candlelit dinners, and you’re floating in your own dream sequence.
