Honeymoon in late December
 
We think we want to honeymoon in Victoria and the surrounding areas from 12/26 - 1/1.

Should we book every night at Victoria or split the time in a second location?

Victoria has LOTS to offer visitors at any time of year so I would suggest for your honeymoon you stick to Victoria. some of my suggestions for hotels would be: The Aerie Resort (just outside Victoria)www.aerie.bc.ca, Sooke Harbour House (also just outside Victoria)www.sookeharbourhouse.com, The Oak Bay Beach Hotel www.oakbaybeachhotel.com, and of course there is the Fairmont Empress www.fairmont.com. Most, if not all probably have some sort of a package for Christmas/honeymoon which would sweeten the deal somewhat. As I type this I also think that Hastings House on Saltspring Island is worth a mention for all or part of your stay as it is a fantastic property and Saltspring Island is also a nice place to visit www.hastingshouse.com. Hope all this is of some help and I'm sure no matter where you decide to stay your honeymoon will be wonderful. Congrats!

with only that number of days i would recommend just staying in victoria. although a one night trip to salt springs wouldn't be difficult.
another place i'd consider is tofino for 2 nights but it's about a 6 hour drive from victoria.

You may consider Whistler for 2 days.
