\u201cHistory suggests the honeymoon began in England in the 19th century when couples would travel the country visiting family and friends who couldn\u2019t make it to their ceremony,\u201d said Kara Bebell, who owns and operates the Travel Siblings<\/a>, with her brother, Harlan deBell. (The New York-based company specializes in romantic getaways.)<\/p>\n

Then the honeymoon evolved into the first time a couple got any prolonged alone time or to consummate the marriage. The modern honeymoon became more of an opportunity for newlyweds to celebrate alone and reconnect after the stress of a wedding.<\/p>\n

In recent years, honeymoons have regressed, Ms. Bebell said. \u201cCouples want validation from followers and friends,\u201d she said, and oftentimes they do that with photos and hashtags.<\/p>\n
