Tahiti, Cook Islands, or Hawaii for Honeymoon?

I am looking at any of these options for a honeymoon. I would go to an island in the Caribbean, but the wedding is during hurricane season. If you have been to either, or a preference to one over the other please provide me some feedback on why you chose that location and how was it.
My intent was to originally do Tahiti, but it is very expensive. Thus I have added Hawaii and Cook Islands into the mix for choosing somewhere in the Pacific to travel to.

Cook Islands instead of Hawaii.
Tahiti out of all of them if you can afford.

Tahiti is definitely the dream location for my honeymoon. Just a place of complete isolation would be the way to go. Hawaii is way to damn crowded for that.

I haven't been to Cook Islands or Tahiti, but I think most will agree that this is the correct answer. From the photos I've seen, French Polynesia (Tahiti, Bora Bora, Mo'orea, etc.) has to be the most beautiful tropical destination on earth.

I went to Tahiti (Papeete, Moorea, Bora Bora) on mine. Greatest place ever, but super-expensive.
I recommend Kauai either The Grand Hyatt Resort (my happy spot) or Princeville (Tahiti-like scenery). The St. Regis is the super-high-end resort there. Maybe four nights at one and three at the other. You will thank me later.

Bora Bora or New Zealand. New Zealand beauty can't be described. It's other worldly.

I will throw in Maldives and Seychelles if you're thinking huge.

Tahiti is a magical place

Headed to New Zealand for 2 1/2 weeks for my honeymoon. Leave next Friday. There are no words to express my excitement.

NZ is gorgeous for sure, but having lived there a year...after just seeing pictures of Bora Bora, I'm inclined to say Bora Bora. Although there are a lot more diverse types of scenery in NZ

Turks & Caicos or stay home

Bora Bora,
Do not go there. You will be disappointed.

Did you stay in any bungalows over the water? That is one thing that I would want to do is stay a few nights in a bungalow. Do you mind telling a little more about your trip and some things to do there. I really want to do Tahiti but I've got to suck it up regarding the bill.

I'm a huge fan of Kauaii, especially the Princeville area and the Sheraton Princeville Resort.

This. Nothing like staying in America and having an America standard of living and still be in paradise.
Kauai is the least populated island in Hawaii that us haoles can go to.
Maui is also good to go to if you want to do other things on your honeymoon besides bump uglies.

I'm going to the Cooks in April. 1 week on Aitutaki and 1 week on Rarotonga. We're renting houses rather than go the resort route. I don't want to share my space with other people's children.
