August honeymoon ideas?

We're getting married August 18, 2012, and need to leave for our honeymoon the following Monday or Tuesday, but I cannot find a single place we're interested in that is okay to go to in August and is also in our budget!  First we were thinking Fiji or Tahiti, but our budget is only around $6000, so we can't afford that trip.  Then we were thinking Italy, but now I'm hearing that Venice (the place we both really, really want to visit) is no fun in August because of the heat and crowds.  My FI doesn't want to go to Paris, Rome, Prague, Berlin or Amsterdam because he was there already with his brother and wants wherever we go to be totally new for both of us.  I don't want to go anywhere on the U.S. Eastern seaboard or the Caribbean because of the risk of hurricanes.  Also, no cruises (we've never been on one before, so we wouldn't want to risk finding out on our HM that one or both of us is prone to seasickness or something).  So we're looking for suggestions - where would you go in August for $6,000 or less?  TIA.
