    The Op can quite easily ask pertintent questions as suggested by MSE'rs here and as he knows this couple (as opposed to a TA) should be able to
    sort out a holiday to their needs.

    Well then it would be wise to ask pertinent questions from the Honeymooners don't you think? She knows them better than us who will NOT be honeymooning with them, same as any reputable TA, which there are loads!

    And then, do not use the UK TA-use the USA ones as they can give far better discounts.

    Yep, we always do, and she has got us some ceacking deals too.:D

    Not really a question of being reputable, more that they are, for most people, an outdated concept. You can do it easier and cheaper from the comfort of your own home and it is tailored to your own needs.

    I hardly ever use TA's but that is because I'm friends with google, and I use sites/forums like these and others, difference between myself and OP is that I'm organising holidays for myself and family, our holidays our geared towards our budget, dates, personal preferences. If I was to say organise it for my mom who is petrified of cruising, I would ensure not to include that on my list.

    OP needs to ask pertinent questions to her friends so that she can be better equipped to plan the honeymoon of their dreams. Asking us for honeymoon ideas for her friends is all good and well, but as I said up thread and as some others have asked, Budget, Dates, preferences etc.?

    I know a couple who went to the Antarctica for their honeymoon, not my idea of a honeymoon.

    They could go to Africa, or to Italy, or multi destination, all I'm trying to say, and obviously failing dismally, is OP needs to help us help them.
