If the winter cold and snowy peaks call to you and your partner, make plans to share a chairlift together in Courchevel. Not only is the skiing incredible at this high-altitude destination in the French Alps, but luxury hotels, shops, and dining abound. One of the newest ski-in, ski-out retreats in the Courchevel 1850 region is the Six Senses Courchevel. Rather than a typical hotel suite, all 28 accommodations are apartments with their own kitchens, dining areas, and balconies. Adventurous couples can make the most of the hotel’s concierges to help arrange skiing and sleigh rides, or take some moments for R&R at the spa.

Looking to do a mini-moon after a stateside wedding? Avoid going through customs and relax in the temperate climate of Miami. The winter is peak season for the region, which boasts daily highs in the 70s. While some head to South Beach for the party, you can have a romantic and peaceful stay at The Setai Miami Beach. A favorite of Beyoncé and Jay-Z, this luxe oceanfront resort brings on the zen vibes with Asian and Art Deco-inspired architecture, three temperature-adjusted pools, and bedrooms complete with their own soaking tubs. Service is top-notch throughout so you and your new spouse won’t need to lift a finger as you float between the live entertainment at the courtyard restaurant Jaya, the spa, or a cabana for two. Of course, if you’re itching for a change of scenery, a Clefs d’Or chief concierge can assist with taking a boat out on the water or enjoying the rest of Miami’s excellent dining and nightlife scene.
