The History and Significance of Honeymoons

Honeymooners are newlyweds who go on a honeymoon, typically immediately after their wedding. The term "honeymoon" originated from the old English custom of serving mead (a sweet, alcoholic beverage) to newlywed couples for the first month after their wedding, which was believed to promote fertility and happiness in their marriage. Today, honeymoons are often seen as a chance for newlyweds to relax, celebrate, and spend quality time together before returning to their daily lives.
