Indagare Must: Top off your trip with a few nights at a remote beach hotel overlooking the Indian Ocean. Indagare Add-On: The Seychelles The Ring: Follow in the footsteps of Princess Diana and Kate Middleton with a striking sapphire and diamond ring, or return to a time of understated elegance with a modestly sized, simple diamond in a delicate setting, like the one Queen Elizabeth still wears.

The Honeymoon Destination: Tuscany & Venice In a Nutshell: A perfect pairing of city and country, a honeymoon combining a visit to the floating city and rolling hills of Tuscany is a timeless, classic trip steeped in rich history. When to Go: April–October Ideal Trip Length: 8–14 days Hotel Highlight: Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco Fun Fact: Honeymoons as we know them today became popular in Europe during the Belle Époque era. It was customary for newlyweds to depart halfway through their wedding reception. The most popular destinations for honeymooning were the French Riviera as well as Italian cities and coastal towns. Indagare Must: Pick up your first set of personalized stationary as a couple at timeless stationer Gianni Basso in Venice — it will come in handy for all of your wedding thank-you notes. The Ring: Recall the elegance of a bygone time with an antique ring whose craftsmanship is evident in the details. Channel the era that resonates most, be it the filigreed refinement of the Edwardian period, the bold geometry of Art Deco rings or the delicate baguettes surrounding exquisite diamonds cut by hand from the 1950s.

The Honeymoon Destination: New Zealand In a Nutshell: A far-flung, activities-heavy honeymoon in spectacular nature with stays at sumptuous super lodges. When to Go: November–April Ideal Trip Length: 10–16 days Hotel Highlight: Matakauri Lodge Indagare Add-On: French Polynesia Indagare Must: Charter a helicopter to Fiordland National Park and land on a glacier before continuing to a private beach for a scenic lunch at Minaret Station. The Ring: Opt for a chunkier band that contrasts a beautiful stone. Round diamonds with bezel settings or gypsy rings lend themselves to a sporty look with a touch of glamour. Otherwise, invest in a striking band or two that can be worn in place of a traditional engagement ring for the embodiment of low-key cool.

The Honeymoon Destination: Japan In a Nutshell: An impeccably stylish country where aesthete couples will find the cutting edge of technology, innovative design and cuisine, Japan is home to rich cultural traditions that go back over a millennium. When to Go: March–October Ideal Trip Length: 8–13 days Hotel Highlight: Amanemu Fun Fact: Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio honeymooned in Japan in 1954. Much to DiMaggio’s chagrin, Monroe departed early when she was called to South Korea to perform for troops who were stationed there. Indagare Must: Overnight on the art island of Naoshima and post up in pajamas at the Benesse House Museum, where you can gaze at works by artists like Richard Prince or Jasper Johns long after the crowds have left. The Ring: A beautiful stone in a setting with clean lines and minimal ornamentation embodies the sophistication of modern style.
