There’s so much celebrating and fun when you tie the knot: at your bridal shower, at your rehearsal dinner, of course at the wedding reception itself and finally now it’s time to celebrate one-on-one with your love.

Depending on where you and your honey will escape to, whether it’s honeymooning in tropical weather, city sightseeing, or more of the outdoor adventuring scene there are a few honeymoon attire “must-haves” we’ve rounded up.

Must-Have #1: Lingerie

Well because, ahem, do we really need to say more?!

We like the vivien lace collection from Svala. Their lingerie is made in Los Angeles, California with fabrics such as organic cotton and reclaimed factory surplus lace.

They have their bra and undies set in different varieties from black lace to floral but our pick would have to be the white and light blue combo- it’s bringing that “something blue” from the wedding into the honeymoon.

Another steamy option is Azura Bay’s bridal collection. Their white strappy lace set is on point for any newlywed and their other options are just as sensuous with their flirtatious play of black lace, silky floral and champagne touches.

Azura Bay is Canadian based, and woman founded that curates brands that are committed to ethical production, artisan & handmade production, fair trade and eco-friendly fabrics.

Must-Have #2: Date night outfits

It’s basically date night every night you when are on your honeymoon but you are sure to splurge on a fine dining experience one of the nights.

Sure, you can pack your go-to little black dress or change it up with a LBJ – a little black jumpsuit. The Rosario jumpsuit from FashionABLE might be our new staple as well. Pair it with statement earrings and a bold clutch and date night here you come. For those color loving gals it comes in red too.

FashionABLE Seeks to alleviate poverty by employing impoverished women by giving them jobs.

But if you want to continue on with bringing the white from the wedding over to the honeymoon attire, then these holiday white pants from Bead and Reel paired with a flirty white top fits the bill.

Inspired by Katharine Hepburn, we agree that these pants are glamorous yet casual.

Bead and Reel is a brand that gives back and is committed to fair trade, artisan made, and vegan principles.

Both outfits have a less is more vibe to it and their versatile wherever you end up dining.

Must-Have #3: Swimsuit

Whether you are going to Newport Beach in the spring or New York in the fall it seems like packing a swimsuit is a necessity for the obvious dip in the ocean or even those just-in-case moments when the hotel jacuzzi is calling.

Continuing with the theme of bringing the color white over we found two bridal-esq swimsuits that fit that theme.

We are digging the cutouts and back to this Vitamin A sexy white one-piece.

Vitamin A is designed and produced locally in California, founded by a Californian native gal Amahlia Stevens. They say they want to make sustainability sexy. Their signature EcoLux fabric- a technically and environmentally superior luxe fabric is made from recycled nylon.

If you want more coverage, than this Jessica Rey white tankini is still flirty paired with any full coverage bottoms, a-la Marilyn Monroe.

At Jessica Rey, they too are sweatshop free, being made ethically in Los Angeles. They offer more modest swimsuit lines. Their swimsuit fabrics are knit using yarn that is made from 100% regenerated fishnets making them have an eco-friendly aspect to their brand.

Must-Have #4: Fun Bag to Put it All In

This Escape bag from Makers+Goods brings it all together.

Makers + Goods curates gifts that give back. Founder Julie Skon practices what she preaches- not only does she select cause based products but Makers + Goods also donates 10% of their proceeds to special causes.

“Escape” sums up a great way to look at your honeymoon. Escape from all that planning, partying, hustle and bustle.

Just you and your honey escaping from it all together. What’s better than that?
