Sub Menu problems

If you go to the following site here

http://dev.takenbymarc.com/

Click on the arrow to pull-down the main navigation then
Hover over weddings and move the mouse down in the sub menu why does the sub menu keep disappearing.  I have tried to gunfire out why with no success.

I used to do a little wedding photography.  You stuff looks great; better than anything I ever did.  now as a web developer...Not so good.  That stylesheet makes it impossible to determine the net properties of any element without spending a lot of time on analysis.  I get over 80 parsing warnings in my error console from the CSS.  The problem is an overlap that is causing a loss of hover.  No surprising because of the absolute positioning and z-index usages.

This problem is not going to get solved without breaking things apart and isolating elements until we get lucky.  Best case we find the problem in a few hours.  Worst case it takes weeks.  

I don't think the movie is the source of the problem. So I suggest a starting point is to setup a page without it and containing only the styling that is actually necessary for the rest of the page.  Then at least we can determine net properties, I hope.

The problem is that it was a purchased template from  here

Its wordpress what do you expect.  I am a good webdeveloper but to debug this issue its going to take time if you can give me some hit as to what is causing this that would be great.
I think the problem is the wrapper the menu should be outside of the wrapper.  
This site wasn't fully coded by me.  I am not the photographer but a friend of mine is its his site.

A lot of this third party stuff is crap.  Most of my stuff  now is codded using
http://www.initializr.com/
Take a look now.  I think I have resolved the issue let me know what you think

Looks like it is fixed.  I take it you found the spot to put the submenu in top of that triangle.

initialzr looks okay but I don't like templates That rely on someone elses code. All I ever use is a text editor.  Everything is from database and I use 20-25 lines of PHP to generate.

Glad you got it solved.
initialzr is good clean.  Not like Boilerplate.  Boilerplate is too much
