I never realized planning a honeymoon in october would be soooo difficult! We dont know where to book, and cruising is out of the picture as the more we researched it the more "expensive" it got from hidden fees and drinks etc. So we'll save that for another year.

I am wondering what places are "safe" to go to and places that wont rain all the time. Los Cabos sounds awesome but I hear you cant swim in the water etc. and the beaches are rocky.

Our budget is 3,500.00 MAX. We'd prefer to of course spend less hehe, but that is our budget and we want to stick to it We also want to go around the 12th/14th of October ... people have asked if we would be willing to wait until December but we dont want to wait, cause if we do we'll never get away as we are also buying a house around February and with our jobs it just wont happen any other time

Thanks for any suggestions!

we are in the same situation.  we are getting married sept23 and afraid that we will be hitting rainy/hurricane season.  i hear that dominican is pretty safe and doesnt get hit too much by hurricanes.  FH had mentioned europe but that can get very expensive too.

Hmmm, the Dominican sounds soooo tempting! hehe, I hear it's beautiful there.

Has anyone heard anything about Puerto vallarta, Mexico? After reading sooo many reviews etc. from tripadvisor about people travelling in October and having a great time it makes me just want to book in the dominican or cuba and just take the chance! But at the same time this is going to be our very first time going on a tropical vacation together eeeeps! So many things to think about hehe.

We finally decided on our honeymoon :-) I am soooo relieved.

We'll be going on a 7 night Southern Caribbean cruise October 15th :-) Woohoo. I believe it stops at Barbados, Aruba, Curcaco etc. so they are all out of the hurricane belt = lack of hurricanes which helps us hehe.

Thanks for the suggstions ................. LOL

A cruise sounds wonderful! I'm sure you'll have a blast. Our honeymoon will be end of Oct/early Nov. We're planning on going to Puerto Vallarta. We chose it for it's location and weather for that time of year, it's out of the hurricane area (it's on the west coast of Mexico) and the weather is still really warm and sunny.

We originally wanted to go to the Mayan Riviera area instead, but the weather is just a tad too "iffy" for me that time of year.

We're probably going to go to the Dreams resort in Puerto Vallarta. Anyone been there or heard anything?

We are going to Cuba October 11th. We are doing four days in havana and 10 days in varadero. Everything cost us 4800 (including tax and insurance), so maybe a week or 10 days would be cheaper.  We booked through ITravel 2000 and it was great!  Check it out!

We were married last fall and did 5 days in Montreal as a mini-honeymoon.  It was a nice break, great food, lots of great wine, warm weather....perfect.

We're going to Asia in the next 12 months as our first anniversary/'real' honeymoon.
