We’ve touched on the topic of mini-moonsand all of the reasons why a couple might chose that route as opposed to venturing off on an extended vacation post-wedding—quite a few times here on the blog: These days, it’s a rather popular option for busy, budget-conscious newlyweds who want the feel of an elaborate getaway without the time or money that usually comes along with it.

Thanks to the 3-4 rule, that goal is extremely attainable: If you choose a not-too-far-off destination and limit the activities you do while you’re there, there’s no reason why you can’t have the trip of a lifetime—just on a shorter timeline.

If a mini-moon is something you’ve been considering as you plan your Big Day, this roundup from Travel + Leisure will convince you to go for it. They’ve compiled a list of 15 glorious resorts (both stateside and in the Caribbean) that are perfect for couples who just need a few days to relax after the wedding. From St. Lucia and Puerto Rico to California and Rhode Island, there’s a location on this list for every set of newlyweds.
