The last thing any newly-wedded couple needs is to arrive at their honeymoon destination and realize that something has been forgotten. It is easy to miss the smallest of things during the hustle and bustle of the wedding. It is also not something you can delegate to someone else, after all, a lot of what we pack on trips is unique to us. Here are a barebones packing list that anyone shop and put together that does not include clothing and related items:

Here is a list of items to pack, that should not be bought at the destination. Everything can be easily found on an online shopping website:
