Considering the many inspirational honeymoon posts we’ve written here on the blog, I’ve come to the conclusion that if I start pulling together my list of ideal destinations now, I may have a slightly better chance of deciding on a single spot once my actual honeymoon rolls around in a few years.

There are, after all, a bajillion postcard-worthy locations to choose from, and in addition to our overload of ideas, chances are you have plenty of people in your life (friends, family, co-workers and maybe even the occasional stranger) who are more than willing to weigh in on where you should spend your post-nuptial getaway, too.

Many of those suggestions will lead you down the tried-and-true honeymoon path (Paris, Hawaii and the Caribbean are likely options), but if you’re craving a location that’s a bit more uncommon, look no further than this list of new places to honeymoon in 2015.

Iceland, Seychelles, Mozambique and Sumba Island in Indonesia are just a few of the untapped locations on the list. Take a look for yourself and let us know which one you’d pick.
