A Dream Destination Wedding at Dreams Flora in the Dominican Republic
Why a Beach Wedding?
The couple chose a beach wedding because they wanted very little planning chaos, with something fun and different. They have both been married in the past, so a beach wedding was absolutely perfect.
The Mermaid-Inspired Theme
To complement the Caribbean setting, they went with what they called a “mermaid theme.”
“We went with blues, greens, and purples. The only flowers were ours. My bouquet had blue and white; his had pink and white. We went pretty casual because we wanted everyone to have fun!” The relaxed style made it easy for guests to soak in the setting and enjoy the celebration.
Favorite Memories
For the wedding ceremony, they exchanged vows right above the resort’s pools, something truly unique. “One of my favorite memories was getting married right above the pools. Everyone was respectful and it was like having extras to ooh and ah over us! We also did a reception back home and I feel like it didn’t give me time to do things I wanted. It made me appreciate our small island reception even more.”
Food and Service That Stood Out
Every detail was handled with care, from the food to the staff support.“The cake was delicious, white cake with strawberry and pudding cream. So yummy! All of the food was amazing and the staff was great. Our butler was so helpful with planning things and taking care of little stuff for us. They even freshened up our clothes for us on the wedding day so we could relax and enjoy!”
With Marissa’s guidance, this couple got the magical, stress-free wedding they dreamed of! If you’re ready to start planning your own destination wedding at an all-inclusive resort in the Dominican Republic, our team at Enchanted Travel is here to help every step of the way.
