An Italian honeymoon doesn't require a €10,000 budget — but it CAN absorb one beautifully. Matera cave hotel for €80/night is as romantic as Belmond Hotel Caruso for €800/night — different romance, same intensity. This planner gives you 3 budgets: budget-romantic (€2,000), mid-luxury (€5,000), and no-limit (€10,000+) — each with specific hotels, restaurants, and experiences.
