The instruction is very clear even on form I-485.
"If you are an H, L,V, or K3/K4 nonimmigrant who continues to maintain his or her status, you may travel on a valid H, L, V or K3/K4 visa without obtaining advance parole."

As long as you dont use your EAD, you are still on H1B status and can work/travel on H1B. When you decide to use your EAD for work, your H1B is cancelled and at that point you would need AP for travel.
Dont postpone your honeymoon waiting for the AP, you can still travel using your H1B.
Good Luck!
