FH and I havent even started looking around for honeymoon prices. Am I really waiting last min?? Im getting worried....maybe we should be booking soon??
Oh and whats the deal with payment? Do you have to put a certain amount down and make payments....or do they ask for it all upfront??
Thanks girls!

We just booked airfare and I'm booking hotels and everything else on my own. I'm going to be booking some hotels within the next 2 weeks or so.

Re: honeymoon booked yet for May brides?
we're all booked. with sandals you just have to put down a deposit and then the rest gets paid like 6 weeks before or something like that.

Re: honeymoon booked yet for May brides?
If you are going in may or June I would book as soon as possible. I heard that flights get pricier closer to the date of travel. I don't really fly that much but that's what I heard. I think we're waiting til the next winter to go somewhere nice and warm. Plus I'm unemployed! $$ is tight!

We had to put a $2,000 deposit to hold the resort rooms in Fiji...that came from the resorts, not the TA. We didn't book airfaire yet b/c the TA said prices may come down.

Re: honeymoon booked yet for May brides?
My fiance and I booked some of our trip already. We are planning to fly into Rome and spend a week in Italy, THen take a cruise from Venice to Greek Islands for a week.
So far, we booked our flight- paid in full and our cruise which only charges a convenience fee now and final payment in 2 months i believe. We plan to get trip insurance.

Re: honeymoon booked yet for May brides?
We booked 3 Hawaiian islands over 12 nights with car rental and inter-isle flights through a travel agent. We put a small deposit to hold the airfare and paid the insurance...total of like $550 deposit. We pay the balance at the end of March. Every TA has different vendors / tour places they deal with....so pricing depends on that and if the air you want is 'bulk' or published. I would get on it to weigh your options, but its definitely not too late.

Re: honeymoon booked yet for May brides?
i think u still have some time before u really need to book ur HM.
FH booked ours a few month back and went through a travel agent. i dont remember which one but if u want i can FM her info. he put down some money, again idk how much, and then we 4 weeks before the HM to pay it off in full. i think it benefitted us to go through a travel agent because we could pay it off little by little.

We put a $900 deposit on our cruise, and used frequent flyer miles for our flights. We still have to book a hotel for the couple nights before the cruise though.

We haven't booked yet but we're getting quotes from travel agents right now. I hope to book our trip in the next few weeks. Good luck!

Re: honeymoon booked yet for May brides?
June bride, but cloose enought! we booked ours in september. we had to put 25% down with hotel and another 25% coming in january. the remaining 50% gets paid when we check out at the end of HM. We booked our A/F through delta directly.... no travel agent for anything, i did it all!
