I Never Had a Honeymoon

We’re not having one, but I’ve always hated that word “honeymoon”. I don’t know why but it makes me cringe. It needs a different name. 😖

It actually dates back to mediaeval times and stems from a tradition dating back to the 5th century. Back then, newlywed couples would drink mead, a honey-based alcohol, after their first "moon" together as a married couple. The mead was a gift from guests, and it was believed to have aphrodisiac properties to help with conception.
....but there are other theories as to the origin of the word as well.

You might call it "honey moan”. 😏

@DragonFruit Ah, I thought I’ve heard of that before. I think it should lose the “honey” too though, lol

@Carver I also don’t know how it evolved into being a “newlywed vacation trip”....but a lot of couples recently have opted to postpone taking their first trip as a married couple until well after the wedding.
