Romantic
Wedding
Destinations:
Guide to Wedding & Honeymoons Getaways Around the World

Author: Jackie Carrington
Illustrator: Annette Riche
Published: 3rd edition 1997

From Introduction: Many couples are surprised to find the cost of a destination wedding is usually no more than the cost of these services in their home town. The biggest savings are in the reception and the headaches of panning a wedding for a large gathering. Many chapels, hotels and destination wedding consultants offer simple wedding packages for as little as $250 that can be arranged on short notice.

The Naked Truth
About Hedonism II

(2nd Edition, Updated for 2004)
Author: Chris Santilli
Published: 2nd edition 2003

From the Publisher: This newest version (published May 2003) of the Hedonism II travel book continues the tradition of inspiring hilarity and amazement in readers--do enjoy! Reading this book is like taking a vacation to Hedonism II--but it's a lot cheaper.

Book Description: What Happens in Jamaica, Stays in Jamaica? Except in this tell-all, cheeky guide to the world's naughtiest resort, Hedonism II.

Everyone returns from Hedonism II with at least one good story no one at home believes.

Is Hedonism II a retirement home for worn-out swingers? Is it a testosterone tour-de-force with too few eligible single women to clamor over? Is it a cult that sucks away all your vacation time? Well, the last one might be true.

Learn why Hedonism II has a 90% repeat guest rate--the highest of any Caribbean hotel--even though the facilities are tired, the food is mediocre, and the beach sand hurts your feet--if you are still standing after a week.

Here are the truths and tips that will make your vacation to Hedonism II the most fun trip you'll ever take--again and again. FYI: The resort Hedonism II did not authorize this book; the book includes the good, bad and the ugly.
