I am getting married this December and I am starting my honeymoon from Germany. I am going to be in Europe for 14 Days. I really want to know what all places I should visit for my honeymoon. Also I want recommendations where I can spend my New Year Night and Christmas

Any day in Paris is a great day, but wanted to let you know that at least last year there were no fireworks on New Years Eve. I was positioned with a clear shot at the Eiffel Tower and there is no way I could have missed them.
I would still recommend Paris as a fantastic place to go on a honeymoon.

There are lots of marvelous choices. London is always amazing, Salzburg or Vienna are classics, and Scotland makes a surprizingly wonderful winter trip! Edinburgh has a great Hogmanay (New Years) celebration as do all Scottish cities/towns. Where are you starting in Germany? Austria would be a short train ride so Salzburgh or Vienna might make the best choice.

Of course the lights sparkle on the hour every night. One difference last year was the lights changed from blue to white. Apparently in 2008 the lights were blue because Sarkozy was the president of the EU or something like that.

Berlin for New Years Eve! Fireworks are legal for sale in Germany the few days before the end of the year, and every city sort of just explodes at midnight. I am always impressed by the quality of these too, they aren't just cherry bombs and sparklers. Just here in Frankfurt, it is constant fireworks for at least 30 minutes or more. Imagine Berlin is even more.
Being at the Brandenburg Gate should be a blast!
