Bride.com's Top Five Honeymoon Destinations

As editor of Brides.com, a new wedding portal from the publisher of Brides and Modern Bride magazines, Theresa DiMasi hears about all the top honeymoon destinations. So we asked her to pick the five best places to go this season, either because these spots are buzz-worthy or little-known (for now) destinations. In addition to being great honeymoon spots, many of these places also will host weddings.

The Seychelles

DiMasi: This archipelago of 115 remote islands off the coast of Africa is one of the last truly pristine and secluded paradises because the government has carefully managed tourism--and construction is strictly regulated. For the
ultimate African adventure, spend a week at the Banyan Tree Resort (pictured above), then head to Kruger National Park, the largest wildlife sanctuary in South Africa, for an overland safari. Starting rate per night (three-night minimum): $1,320.
