Chic, practical travel essential picks for a smooth and stylish honeymoon getaway.

When it comes to honeymoon packing, it’s all about the essentials that blend style, comfort, and functionality. You’ll want pieces that work as hard as you play, and that’s where a few select travel heroes come in. Start with the must-have travel accessories that pull double (or even triple!) duty, such as Stephanie Keyser‘s multi-functional Cali tote and Wynwood clutch, which come in a variety of striking colors. (Don't miss the rest of her collection, filled with vacation-ready pieces!)

To keep you organized, Solgaard's Carry-On Closet Lite's genius shelving system ensures you can find your favorite beachwear without the hassle of unpacking, while a sleek foldable Apple Device Charger keeps multiple devices powered up wherever the adventure takes you.

Small enough to slip into your bag but loud enough to deter unwanted attention, She’s Birdie Safety Device is perfect for LGBTQ+ couples exploring new places. For added ease, pack Apple AirTags to track your bags, so you spend less time worrying and more time enjoying. And don’t forget the Hollywood Fashion Secrets Style Kit—it’s a lifesaver for wardrobe mishaps, from fashion tape to lint sheets.

With these essentials packed, you’re all set to kick back and enjoy every dreamy moment of your honeymoon—stylish, prepared, and worry-free for whatever adventure (or relaxation) comes your way.

Honeymoon Travel Essentials
  1. ‘Cali' tote by Stephanie Keyser, $150: Especially when traveling, I’m all about finding pieces that work for multiple looks and functions, and this best-selling Cali Tote — straight from Miami Swim Week runways — nails it. Not only is it incredibly versatile, but its effortlessly chic design can take you from the beach to a night out without missing a beat. With a spacious interior, it’s perfect for carrying all your essentials, yet polished enough to elevate any outfit, and it comes in gorgeous colorways of almond, coral and lavender. The removable handles make it easy to pack (just fill the bag with your clothes to keep it's shape). Whether you’re exploring a new city or heading straight from the beach to the bar, this tote has got you covered in style.
  2. ‘Wynwood' Clutch by Stephanie Keyser, $75: Another must-have, multi-function accessory, the Wynwood 3-in-1 Bag is as stylish as it is versatile. You can rock it as a crossbody when you’re sightseeing, switch it to a wristlet for easy access, or use it as a wallet when you want to keep things light. It’s the perfect size for all your must-haves and its compact design keeps things light without sacrificing space for essentials like your phone, cards, and keys.
  3. She's Birdie Safety Device, $29.95: Meet Birdie, your pocket-sized personal safety alarm that's as stylish as it is powerful. Hopefully, you won't need it, but whenever you're traveling in a new place, particularly for women and LGBTQ+ couples, it's better to be safe than sorry. With a quick pull, it blasts a loud alarm and flashes a bright strobe light to help deter any unwanted attention, giving you an extra layer of peace of mind wherever you go.
  4. Solgaard Carry-On Closet Lite, $265: We love Solgaard luggage for their signature FlowCloset™ featuring built-in, removable shelves that keep your clothes organized and ready to go, so you can skip the unpacking and dive straight into honeymoon mode. It also expands for extra packing space when you need it, perfect for storing those souvenirs you picked up along the way.
  5. Apple AirTags, $69.99 for 4: Throw an Airtag in your checked bag so that you always know where it is, which comes in handy should the airport lose it. You can also attach one to your keys, your backpack, your new spouse (kidding!) and you are able to track them at all times, right from your iPhone. Encase it in a WithIt leather Airtag holder TKTKT
  6. Foldable Apple Device Travel Charger from Hammacher Schlemmer, $99.95: This compact, portable wireless charger is a must-have for keeping all your Apple essentials powered up! Just unfold this charger, and you can power up your iPhone, AirPods, and Apple Watch all at once—no hassle, no hunting for outlets. When you’re done, it folds neatly into a leather case that’s perfect for slipping into a day bag or suitcase. It even comes with a USB-C cable and adapter, so you’ll be ready to plug in wherever your adventure takes you!
  7. Ornadi Swimsuit Storage, $54: Perfect for stashing wet swimsuits or post-hike gear, Ornadi's wet bags' innovative, non-toxic, antimicrobial, waterproofing technology ensures everything else in your bag stays clean and dry.
  8. Hollywood Fashion Secrets Style Emergency Kit, $14.99: This travel-sized kit lets you tackle any wardrobe mishap. It features the brand's best-selling Fashion Tape, a staple for celebrity stylists, which keeps your favorite fashion pieces in place and prevents wardrobe malfunctions. It also includes: Deodorant-Removing Sponge, Lint-Removing Sheets, Safety Pin, Anti-Static Spray, Sewing Kit, Stain Wipe, Earring Back, Adhesive Buttons, Hair Band, Nail File, Blister Pad, and Shoe-Shine Sponge.
  9. Wrinkle-Free Attire: Packing wrinkle-free clothing for travel was a total game-changer for me—no travel steamer needed, and I don't have to waste precious vacation time ironing. A few of my favorite brands with a wide variety of wrinkle-free options are Foreign Fare (love their Jetsetter Jacket!), SummerSalt and UnTuckIt.
