Help! Newbie trying to book a honeymoon!

Hello,

I could really use some help. My husband and I are planning our honeymoon to Hawaii in October or November. We would love to use points to pay for this honeymoon! We currently live in Baltimore and would like to get airfare (perhaps with a day or two in San Fran), and then head to the Maui and Kauai for 12-15 days. We have a few questions regarding hotel options and flights.
Here is what we are working with:

400,000 Marriott Points
90,000 AmEx Membership Rewards Points
32,000 SPG points

Hotel: After doing some research on Marriott, I believe we can do 5 nights at the Kauai Marriott Resort for 100,000 pts, and the Ritz in Maui for 200,000 pts or the Maui Mariott for 120,000 pts. Any thoughts between the Ritz versus the Marriott in Maui?

Flights: I'm totally lost on this...how do we get the biggest bang for our points with flights?

Thank you kindly for your thoughts on this....if you have any other suggestions regarding activities or resturants, i'm all ears!

Sincerely,

Deborah
