Honeymoon????

Honeymoon????

I went to the Dominican Republic the first week in November. I stayed at the Riu Bambu in Punta Cana (www.riuhotels.com). Seven nights at this all-inclusive resort(meals, alcohol, non-motorized sports, etc) including airfare was only $780 per person. We went through Apple vacations and had an amazing time. The beach was more beautiful than in Jamaica. The price was almost double after 11/15, so it may be affordable depending on when your wedding is. The only downside was my fiancee and I were sick for a day even though we did not drink the water. Be careful! The food was good, not great, but there was a large selection at the buffets. If you would like more info on outside activities to do there, email me directly.

thanks, will do! :)*

Along the lines of Mexico Cozumel is beautiful as well-- def more low key than Cancun and depending on the time of year you dont' want to be in Cancun during Spring Break or when the high schools graduate Laura

You might want to check with the tuxedo shop - they're the ones that would know what would look better.

What is Apple travel? I've seen it mentioned on other postings. Do they have a website?

Thanks, Jenn

Thats great, I remember when I was looking for one for my wedding and the best I could come up with with hand outs was $900.00! I think some of the prices vendors are charging are getting a little too steep.

When my fiance was doing research for our honeymoon, he read about the Dominican Republic. There is a lot of poverty there, which he why people don't think of it for vacations, but I think there are some resort areas where that you might be able to find some good deals. Maybe something to look into.

I just loved the idea of going to the Carribbean and not having to stay for more than a day. This way you can get an idea of which islands you like best, and go back at a later time. Also, I haven't been to the park in a while, so that was also a dream of mine.

My problem is in planning it 1 1/2 years from the date. No one is willing (or able) to help at this time because it is too soon. I just want a guideline on what the prices might be and what I might be getting for comparison reasons. Anyone have a good travel agency that would be willing to do this? (We also want to try to save as much towards the trip as we can now.)
