That time at the beginning when everything seems perfect and even their annoying habits seem painfully adorable to you. Well, it doesn\u2019t have to be just a phase when there are so many years of adventure to come \u2013 so here are a few ways to make sure the fun continues well beyond your actual honeymoon!<\/span><\/p>\n

Take care of something together;<\/span><\/p>\n

Having a child or even getting a pet is a big commitment for newlyweds. But the shared experience of caring for another living entity can be an unparalleled bonding experience after getting married<\/a>. If you’re the non-committal types, volunteer to raise a guide dog puppy for a few weeks (or perhaps adopt a fish!). Even tending to a garden together is enough to keep the relationship feeling fresh.<\/span><\/p>\n

Surprise each other;<\/span><\/p>\n

The best way to keep things exciting after the wedding<\/a> is to delve into the unexpected. When he returns home from work, meet him with the first clue of a scavenger hunt! Hide some plane tickets underneath his pillow or suggest making cheese fondue to eat while you sit on the carpet, picnic-style! Make it so that every day you wake up wondering what new adventures are in store.<\/span><\/p>\n

Plan events;<\/span><\/p>\n

We’re not saying you need to throw a party every weekend to keep the spark alive, but even co-ordinating a dinner menu together or creating an itinerary for a weekend trip is something that can challenge and excite the two of you.<\/span><\/p>\n

Start a project:<\/span><\/p>\n

Whether it’s decorating your new home together or learning to play the piano, the act of creating is an uplifting experience that you and your new husband will forever pride yourselves in.<\/span><\/p>\n

Travel:<\/span><\/p>\n

Exploring new and exotic locations helps with self-discovery and growth \u2013 plus, seeing each other learn new things about the world can only make you fall deeper in love.<\/span><\/p>\n

Explore;<\/span><\/p>\n

You don\u2019t have to look very far to find something new. That abandoned path in the nearby woods? Ask them to hike it with you! Finding beauty in unexpected places is an experience that will be even more astonishing when it’s shared with the one you love most.<\/span><\/p>\n

Never stops trying for them;<\/span><\/p>\n

You know that they love you with bedhead hair and smeared make-up, but it’s still a treat for them to come home to find you in your favourite little black dress and lipstick. That goes for him too, so tell him how much you love seeing him looking dapper in a suit with a pair of brand new loafers on. Then go ahead and get back into your comfy joggers.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
