  After you've spent thousands of dollars and countless days planning your wedding, it's time to enjoy your honeymoon. Honeymoon cruises are more popular than ever. According to Paul Durante of "World Press", the cruise industry annually grows by eight percent and has done so since 1986. Cruises offer honeymooners a relaxing vacation, often to several different ports, without the hassle of getting yourself anywhere but to the port in time to embark.
