Typically after a wedding, couples go on a honeymoon. But a new trend has newlyweds spending their honeymoons away from each other.
So instead of spending a honeymoon with your new husband or wife, you take a vacation alone or with friends after the wedding. Couples who solomoon site the importance of independence, varying work schedules and being in a long-term relationship before tying the knot.
The New York Times interviewed a couple, Irene O’Brien and Mel Maclaine, to get a better understanding of solomoon’s as they partook in one.
But some people took to Twitter to question if theirs a deeper meaning on why people are doing this.
beginning to think more straight couples should ask themselves “do we even uhhhhhhh….. like each other” before, say, getting married and telling the new york times shit like this pic.twitter.com/4WUrGRfZYw

Look all I have to say is it’s your relationship, some don’t even take honeymoons!
Then again, why would you want to take a trip alone after your wedding?
