I have never been outside of the united states except to go to Canada. DH and I were going to have our honeymoon next year because my cousin is getting married in Turks & Caicos at Beaches anyway. So Im looking at the rooms and 3 nights for $3,000! OMG! I really didn't think it would be that much!
Does anyone know a way I can save money on that trip? Any promotional things, discounts?

Check out sites such as expedia and AA vacations. They sometimes run deals, especially if you get the airfair with it, you just have to keep checking.

Beaches, part of the Sandals chain, is very expensive because it's all inclusive. For 3 people it probably is $1K a night. Although it can't hurt to try Discount All Inclusive or TripAdvisor and click on 'Compare all deals on Beaches Turks & Caicos'. There are many other options (and cheaper) but not all inclusive and I'm sure you and Anthony will want to stay with the rest of the family. Plus if you're bringing Gabe Beaches should be great. Good luck!

Check out the Hotels that are around Beaches. Some may be more affordable.

Try a travel agent. FH and I went to Turks & Caicos last year and the travel agent got us a much better price than any of the websites...You should try to do an all inclusive there because everything is so expensive and it will actually save you money in the long run.

I don't know if Club ABC is offering anything right now but if you go to their website you might be able to find something. I let my membership expire but I used to travel with them exclusively!

I agree! We went for 5 nights and it was about 800 each! The resort we stayed at has since closed.
