    go in and haggle with the travel agents. We looked on travel supermarket and seen a deal for £3100 but was with a company called Dream Ticket (whomever they are). So we went to 4 different travel agents and told them what price we got. The best price was a bit more than that with Thomas Cook but we thought sod it, would rather book with them than a company we have never heard of. But they will all try to better each others prices, so well worth going into the shops.

    ooo we are on a similar budget to you - quite tempted to book mine now but will have to wait till this summer as I get 6% discount with Virgin Holidays so gonna look then when they have June/July 2012 available on their website

    I'll have a shop around though as may find a good deal in a shop nearer the time! thanks for the inspiration to go honeymoon hunting linzi as we have been thinking maldives for ages xxx

    We want to go to the Maldives for our honeymoon in September, but we're looking for somewhere we can do some diving as well as a touch of luxury (Four Star realistically). Two weeks away! Still researching. I agree that booking through a company you trust makes lots of sense. I've looked up Turquoise Holidays, but suspect the prices would be out of our league. Waiting on online response to enquiry. Hayes & Jarvis seem to have a range of mid to top end locations. I sat down at Trailfinders in Exeter and they were quite helpful, so great to speak to a person, but still haven't decided anything! Currently favouring Reethi Beach and Filitheyo. Though if I had unlimited funds... One&Only and Six Senses are the places I dream of, but cannot afford..... sigh!

    I tried turquoise, told them our max budget was £4000 and i got a bit of a snotty email back saying "our holidays usually start at £4k per person, we dont think we can help you"! haha

    cheapest i found was with Dream Ticket, but they dont include transfers, and who are dream ticket?? so we went to Thomas Cook and sat with the girl (a friend) for an hour whilst she sources the cheapest options for us.
    Cost £3500 in a Beach Bungalow, AI. Its was an extra £1500 for the jacuzzi villa, so we decided against that!

    We went to Thomas Cook a while ago and they said to steer clear of the maldives in august time when we are getting married as its their raining season, went in thomson yesterday and they said you may get a bit of rain in eve for hour or so and thats it. The chap was really helpful and it sounds amazing so we are hoping to go in to town next week and see what the prices will be like :) x

    we had been thinking about the maldives, but thought the same as you were originally told kate-b that it was the rainy season and not that nice, so we are thinking of having our honeymoon a few months after the wedding in october / november time. Depending on when i can get my boys looked after

    Stressed - we are going on 27th Nov for 2 weeks.

    apparently even in the rainy season even when it does rain its short bursts, and then its dry again before you know it. A lot of people say the rain is welcome as it cools everything down cause the sun is obviously very strong out there.

    Claire - you will be there soon you lucky thing!! remember I want FULL details when you get back.........

    We went travel agents at the weekend - first one who we hoped to book with due to pitch from a couple weeks before turned out to be really expensive for a 3* resort. Went to TC at weekend and said we'd had prices from other agents and they immediately gave us discount and we hopefully have an amazing deal at a 5* resort with a honeymoon suite villa... Just waiting for the resort to confirm that it is free - will be gutted if it aint but have been given an alternative option... Keeping fingers crossed!!

    We are only there for 4 nights as are also going around Sri Lanka before hand which made the holdiay slightly cheaper, though can foresee that we are going to be spending alot of time travelling!!
