Destination wedding couples are getting more and more adventurous in the locations they pick to say their “I do’s.” So, it’s no surprise that they’re also thinking outside the box when it comes to their honeymoon. While there’s nothing wrong with whiling away your post-nuptials trip on a beach somewhere, some newlyweds are taking a more adventurous route; think hiking treks, exotic cruises or cycling trips. For lovers interested in the latter, DuVine Cycling + Adventure Co. might be an ideal solution.
