Minimoon Trend India: As soon as the wedding season approaches, what remains the most talked about thing is not just the clothes, rituals or the guest list, but the planning of the honeymoon is also done with the same enthusiasm. Every newly married couple wants to go to a quiet place after the hustle and bustle of the wedding and many days of preparations, where they can relax, spend time together and make this new journey special, but now the situation is changing. Where earlier couples used to go straight on a long vacation, now a new trending style is becoming increasingly popular – minimoon. A minimoon is actually a small, relaxing and impromptu trip that couples plan for a few days immediately after the wedding. These include short getaways of 3-5 nights, which do not require heavy planning and the budget also remains under control. After this, after a few months, they go on their long and detailed bigmoon-trip, which is prepared like a real honeymoon. A new report from travel platform Thrillophilia suggests that Indian newlyweds are loving this two-step honeymoon style. A short trip immediately after the wedding takes them out of the tiredness and gives them a chance to spend time with each other, while the big moon that follows gives them an immersive, memorable and premium holiday experience as per their choice. This new trend is becoming popular not only because of convenience or budget, but also because it gives couples the opportunity to relax quickly, travel without any pressure and create more than one memorable trip till their first anniversary.
