All the bridal and wedding magazines tell you what to do to lead up to the wedding. But, what do you do after the wedding? Aside from a honeymoon this question can plague some married couples who have not yet learned the difference between dating and marriage. The key to understanding what to do after you have married is to find activities that you both can enjoy together but won’t break the bank.
Some of the most popular post-honeymoon activities that you and your partner can do together include:
Catch a dinner theatre. Treat yourselves to a comedy dinner show or a mystery dinner show one weekend night. This is a great way to do something you both enjoy together and have a fun night out!
Visit a local attraction - Whether you live near a theme park or a local museum, spend the day with one another enjoying each other’s company and having fun!
Sign up for a dance class - Even if you both are experienced dancers, a dance class is a great weekly way to work out and be close to one another. It can be a romantic way to show one another how much you love each other.
Visit local flea markets - For the collector couple that doesn’t want to spend hundreds; you can visit the local flea market together. Here you can find pieces for your home, or even conversation pieces that just can spark controversy between you two.
Take bike rides together - If you are outdoor lovers, consider taking a bike ride through a different part of the city or country once a week. This is another way to work out and share in the beauty of nature together.
Complete a home improvement project together - If you have recently moved into a home that you both seek to fix up, work on a project together. Whether you are tiling the hallway or painting a bedroom, completing a home project together can be fun and a great way to share in responsibilities.
Attend a concert - For the music-loving couple, attending a concert for a favorite band or even cover bands at a local restaurant can make for a relaxing evening together.
Attend a wine tasting - Oftentimes you will find local businesses that are conducting wine tastings. A wine tasting can be an enjoyable chance to come together over tastes and favorite aromas you share in common.
Go to the movies - With new movies out every weekend there is sure to be one that will draw you both in and keep you cuddling in the movie theater.
There is no right or wrong way to spend time with your new spouse. Generally a married couple will marry because they share common interests anyway, now you can find other common interests you share. The idea behind these activities is to be with the one you love and participate in an activity that gives you both joy. So consider each other’s likes and dislikes when planning your couple’s activity and you will be sure to have a great time with your new spouse!

5 Fun Activities for Newlyweds after the Wedding
Just because the wedding has passed does not mean that there has to be an end to the fun of a relationship. In fact, many would argue that the fun and the time to share in the joy of life together is just beginning. After the wedding stresses are over, you and your partner might need to find some interesting and fun activities to get back to the carefree lives you have together. These activities not only can bring you both joy, but can help remind you both of the passion that unites you as a happy couple.
1. Create a picnic at the park
Together you can make and pack a meal that you both will enjoy, and head to a local park. When there you can sit and eat together, play games, or even just look out at the beauty of the world. This activity is not only relaxing, but will give you both time to be outside and together, without the distractions of television and cell phones.
2. Plan a day to get lost
You can plan a day together to take a drive down a road that you both have never been on. Sightseeing in your local area can wield some kept secrets, like picturesque scenery or a great restaurant that you otherwise might never have known existed. It is okay this one time to get lost together and just enjoy the ride you are taking together.
3. Learn something new
There is always going to be some hobby that you two know completely nothing about. Whether it is dancing, sculpting, or how to swim, take the time to learn this uncharted territory together. You can take a class or try to teach yourselves, no matter what this activity is sure to bring you both close and give you some serious laughs.
4. Plan a slumber party
Take one night of the week to get all your favorite snacks, a newly released movie, and cuddle underneath the covers. You can play games or just talk about your most intimate secrets. If you want to add to the fun of your couple’s night pick up a bottle of wine and some chocolate!
5. Act like kids
Visit a theme park that has plenty of scary and blood-pumping rides for you both to ride on, teacups are fine too. This is a good time to cuddle close or make each other laugh, and just act like children. Children that are in love! Letting out the inner child can bring you closer together and reveal a fun side of you both that you may not see on a daily basis.
These are just a few of the activities you and your partner can to together to celebrate your new chapter in life. Any activity that keeps you both together and focused on fun can bring you closer together. Post-wedding time does not have to mean an end to your fun as a dating couple. It is the beginning to a new and exciting life together as a pair.
