Enjoy your Orlando romantic vacation rental with your sweetheart! Take the time to reconnect and use some of this wise advice from our guest writer, Angela Francis.

So you’ve finally decided to take some much needed time with each other to a romantic getaway! What you take with you is an essential component of making your newlywed retreat a trip to remember!

Don’t be afraid to turn up the excitement and bring your sexy!

1. New Lingerie – Ladies bring out the lingerie that your husband has yet to see! You can choose something revealing like a sheer gown. Or maybe just a bra and matching thong set in his favorite color!

2. Candles - nothing lights up the mood like scented candles! It also sets the tone for a romantic evening.

3. Massage Lotion and oil – get the night started right with your spouse’s favorite massage lotion and oils. There is an array of massage lotions to choose from, bring a couple that matches the response you’re trying to achieve. There are some for relaxation, for heightening the senses, for enhanced stimulation, etc.

4. Picnic Basket - one afternoon while away take your spouse to a special spot near where you’re lodging. Enjoy one another with a lunch of love! Bring a picnic basket filled with a nice meal, cheese, grapes, strawberries, and your favorite bottle of wine! Don’t forget the blanket as you might decide to lie under a tree and shoot the breeze!

5. Music – before leaving for your trip, download your favorite love songs to your Ipod or a CD! For an added twist, be sure to download the song from your first dance as husband and wife that was sang (played) at your wedding.

Your getaway will be even more special when bringing these romantic items along with you!
