Thinking of honeymooning in Dubai for 7 days and then extending to the Seychelles. Do you suggest staying in the city, the beach or both while in Dubai? We're going in June and I know it will be hot weather then...will this be a problem? Any advice is definitely appreciated.

There is a lot more info on Dubai over on TA. I like Dubai as a stopover and you will get great rates on lux hotels in June but I wouldn't spend more than 2-3nts there. Check out the One and Only as a romantic hotel and I also love the Park Hyatt. It's hot in June but not intolerable, July,aug, and sept are much worse. Be prepared for hot and humid however.
I'll double down on the 3 nights in Dubai recommendation. Spend that excess time in Seychelles.
Hot, hot, hot and humid in Dubai.
As others, I'd shorten Dubai to 3/days most and then be off to the Seychelles. While also hot and humid, it's Paradise... no big buildings, traffic, etc. Split time in the Seychelles between minimum 2, preferably 3 islands... transport between these is easy enough to arrange whether by short-haul flights or boat/ferry.
