Honeymoons are a special time for lovebirds fresh off their wedding vows to soak in some one-on-one time as they start their lives together.



But that's so last year.



Apparently the new trend is to keep the party going and invite your friends along.



It's called a "buddymoon."



A new report from Priceline showed about 12% of the couples surveyed say they've organized or attended a group honeymoon in the past five years.



Conde Nast Traveler confirms the new phenomenon, saying celebrities have been doing it and it's catching on.



A few more reasons they're picking up steam: more couples are living together before they get married and weddings today are becoming more relaxed.
