If you are having a fall wedding then Upstate New York is the best location for you. During the fall there is nothing better than driving the scenic highways and watching the beautiful changing of the leaves. New York is also a great option if you love wine. Upstate New York is known for its wineries, and you must try the Apple wine.

Maui, Hawaii
It is no wonder lists like this include Maui. The sun, beaches, and lively adventure-filled activities. If you’re an outdoorsy couple, you can ride a helicopter to see an aerial view of the island or go hiking through the trails of Haleakala National Park. You can watch the moving performance of a traditional luau while eating fresh pineapples and other Hawaiian cuisines.
Sanibel Island, Florida
Relax on the west coast of Florida while enjoying the fantastic coastal views. They also have cozy inns and romantic cottages that are a bit secluded from the crowd. You will also enjoy combing for seashells along Bowman Beach.
Kauai, Hawaii
Kauai is another paradise destination for adventurous couples. You can go swimming or boogie boarding at Kalapaki Beach. If the weather is good, you may also go kayaking on the river of Garden Island. Kauai doesn’t have a lot of large chain hotels so you can really experience all the island has to offer without the crowds.

Savannah, Georgia
If I had to chose a US honeymoon location Savannah would be at the top of my list. Savannah is one of my favorite cities and the best part is that it is a walking city. You can easily navigate the downtown area by walking. Savannah is full of culture since it is America’s first city. Don’t miss a boat ride at the riverfront. You will also may want to cross the bridge and visit Hilton Head or go to the beach at Tybee Island.
