1.When packing, keep the creases in your clothes vertical instead of horizontal. The creases will be much less noticeable when you begin to unpack.
2. To cushion each layer of clothing use either plastic bags which you might later use as laundry or garbage bags.
3. Use tissue or scented sheets of paper that will keep your clothes fragrant while minimizing the creases.
4. To keep wrinkles to a minimum, lay out your clothes in layers on the bed, one on top of each other, and fold to fit in the bag.
5. Specific items like shirts or blouses can be packed in layers in plastic bags before being placed in the suitcase.
6. Underwear, socks and other uncrushables can be placed into the crook and crannies of your suitcase to save on space.
7. Instead of rolling up belts, place them inside the wall of the bag, running around its circumference.
8. Casual clothes like tee shirts will take up less room if packed rolled up. Cushion them with tissue paper to keep them wrinkle free.

9. In the case of ties, if you’re travelling formal, pack each one separately by rolling tightly around two fingers, starting from the narrow end and finishing with the wide.
10. Before placing them in the suitcase, roll a sock around each individual tie. It should arrive flat and creaseless.

11. Heavier items to be packed should be placed at the bottom of the case, together with your shoes.
12. Make use of the cavities of the shoe by placing inside them the smaller items you’re taking on your honeymoon.
13. To ensure that the shoes don’t dirty the clothes on top of them, place them inside old socks or shoe mittens.
14. To ensure that shoes don’t spread any odor to the rest of your clothes, zip them up in a plastic bag.

15. Have a trial run with your packing, even though you might need to unpack and use the clothes before you leave for your honeymoon.
16. On this your rehearsal packing, pack whatever you’ve selected as the items you’re going to take. Having done this once, repack, and this time include only those things you think you will definitely use. Ideally your suitcase should still have room for those things you’re bound to pick up at your honeymoon destination.

17. As far as toiletries are concerned, check with the hotel you’ll be staying at to see if they provide many of the essentials you’ll be using such as shampoo, conditioner and soap or body wash. Even though these will be in tiny sizes, it will be enough for you not to need to bring your own.
18. While you’re checking out the toiletries being provided, find out also if they provide any other items such as hairdryer, iron, CD player etc, so you don’t need to bring your own.
19. If you do need to bring such appliances, make sure you have the right adapters and convertors for the country you’re heading to.

20. If you decide to use a backpack place the lighter items at the bottom, with the heavier items on top. As the pack rests on your lower back, your bag will feel lighter. As with the ordinary bag, place those things that you use the most on the top, while those items which you have already worn, and not as yet had a chance to wash, are best placed at the very bottom.
