Fiji top choice on many honeymooners’ wish lists

 •  Maui markets wedding romance

Advertiser Staff

The international competition for the world's honeymooners is still going. The latest round goes to Fiji. Sort of.

Honeymooner's Review Guide just completed a poll of couples planning their honeymoons, asking where they would "like" to go for their honeymoon.

The Fiji islands were the top choice for the dream honeymoon destination with 19 percent of the votes, edging out Hawai'i with 18 percent and French Polynesia with 15 percent.

But Michelle McKenzie, vice president of Honeymooner's Review Guide, said the poll does not necessarily indicate where they ended up honeymooning, only where they would prefer to go.

"Often budgetary issues limit the final destination of honeymoon couples. Actually, the Hawaiian Islands are the No. 1 final destination of those who complete our post-honeymoon survey," she said.
