Honeymoon in June...where to go???

So we are getting married 15th June 2013  and are stressing about where to go on our honeymoon.

We go away abroad every year as a family to the greek islands or the canaries but want to go somewhere 'special' as we will be going away on our own,

My partner wanted to go to the caribbean but I know that it is the rainy season/hurricane season so don't know what to do??

Any help much welcome!!

Our wedding is at the end of June and we were also concerned about the change in seasons. However, hurricane season usually causes the most problems in the later months and 'rainy season' is often just the odd shower. We've been assured by experts and previous June/July visitors to our chosen Caribbean destination (Antigua) that it is a perfectly good time to visit Also, my friend went to Mexico in August and had fine weather.

Where were you thinking of heading?

We are having the same problem. June 22nd wedding and would be nice to go as near to the wedding as possible rather than leaving it. We are also asking for contributions to the honeymoon as our wedding present so not sure whether to book now and just hope we get near to the cost to cover it or wait until we know what we can spend.  All the good deals seem to be for early bookings though.

I have seen that Aruba seems to be all year round sun as not in hurricane belt so may consider that.

Getting married end of May going to Ecuador and Galapogos from few days after wedding to mid June.

Hi

I am getting married 30th June and have booked our honeymoon on 2nd July to Mexico for 2 weeks.  We have never been to Mexico before but have travelled to many places in the Caribbean (Jamaica, St Lucia, Barbados, Antigua, Dominican Republic) all during the months of May - September. 

They do say that the rainy/hurricane season is during the months of May-October but if a hurricane is going to occur it is usually during the later month of October.  As for the rain, well, of all the places i've been to it has hardly ever rained and if it does it down pours for about 10 minutes and then the blue skies come out again.

Honestly you can't go wrong in the Caribbean, it is not like England where it rains all day every day like I said the most you'll get is a down pour for 10 mins and then blue skies again.

Of the places that I have visisted I would say the following:

St Lucia is beautiful, just stunning, it is like a picture postcard everywhere you look and the people are so friendly, loads of site seeing and tourist activities, very safe to just walk around and the hotels are gorgeous.  (visited 4 times)

Dominican republic is very hotel based not much going on outside. (visited 1 time)

Jamaica is a gorgeous country full of culture and good vibes, the people are very friendly and there is loads of site seeing to do. (visited 3 times)

Barbados is beautiful, gorgeous seas, friendly people, but not a lot to do with regards to site seeing. (visited 2 times)

Antigua is stunning, the sea views are amazing, but a very relaxed holiday, not much site seeing and very hotel based. (visited 1 time)

Wherever you choose in the Caribbean you will have an amazing time. 

Hi im also getting married on the 15th of June 2013 and we are having exactly the same problem on where to go im leaning more toward mexico but still no idea.

We're going to Barbados (in 40 days time, can't wait!), wihch we picked after a LOT of research. We wanted soeehere where we could just chill out and relax. Technically its the rainy season from June to October but apparently when it does rain its not too bad and everything dries within minutes. MY BFF got married 2 year ao and went to Barbados too, from 25th June for 2 weeks, and it rained slightly on one day. So we're hoping that seeing as we're going from 10th to 22nd June we won't get any rain. We've picked Waves hotel on the west coast (can only book through Virgin) and we're really looking forward to it. :)

I am 15th June 2013 as well and I am also struggling to find my perfect honeymoon destination!

have you looked at Koh Samui in Thailand? It's in the gulf of Thailand so the weather patterns are different to say phuket etc. Have a research.

That's we're off too!

Have a read of these:
