Where does the word "honeymoon" come from?

The Scandinavian word for honeymoon is derived, in part, from an ancient Northern European custom in which newlyweds, for the first month (one full moon cycle) of their married life, drank a daily cup of honeyed wine called mead. The ancient practices of kidnapping a bride and drinking the honeyed wine date back to the history of Attila, king of the Asiatic Huns from A.D. 433.

Northern European history describes the abduction of a bride from a neighboring village. It was imperative, that the abductor, the husband to be, take his bride to be into hiding for period of time. His friends assured his and her safekeeping and kept their whereabouts unknown. Once the bride's family gave up their search, the bridegroom returned to his people. This folkloric explanation presumably is the origin of today's honeymoon, for its original meaning meant hiding.
