I'm getting married in June, and my fiancee and I are going to Turks and Caicos. Acutally, Caicos to be specific. The whole thing can definitely be done for under $4K easily. I hesitate to post the name of the place here because I want it to remain as relatively obscure as possible. I'll PM you tomorrow with more info.

My fiancee and I just booked our honeymoon in March. We're going to stay at an all-inclusive resort in Playa del Carmen, near Cancun. We got a pretty good deal. We wanted to do the Carribean, but it was just cheaper to do Mexico.

My wife and I went to Jamaica in May for our honeymoon and had a blast. We were originally going to Mexico but opted for Jamaica after hearing a bunch of the stuff that was going on at the resorts at the time.
I don't know what the cost is but talk to a travel agent or maybe do the time online................but there are a Zillion small tropical islands off the beaten path. Many cater to just this sort of thing
While Little Palm may be a bit pricey (and continental) this sort of thing exists all over the Carribean....

Vegas baby
Not your relaxing hang out by the ocean with fruity drinks kind of spot, but still a blast.

Seriously seriously do not go!!!! I want there for my honeymoon and it was so boring. We stayed at the Marriott and if you want to go anywhere on the island it is like a $40 cab ride.
It totally sucks, nothing great about the water or the island.
My wife and I were so sad that we choice that place.
I kept saying I feel like I am trapped in a snow storm, no where to go, nothing was opened, just plain boring.
DON"T GO THERE!!!!!!!!!!
After reading about Key West, I so wish we had gone there.

Orginal was going to Jamica but we cancealed the night of our wedding becasue we wanted another day hanging with our friends, it was with Amex travel so you could canceal any time and rebook, three months later we decide to go to St. Thomas, worst decision ever EVER!

This looks like a fun cruise.
