DESTINATION WEDDING IN PUNTA CANA

Gina & Kade are currently engaged and planning their dream destination wedding!

Wedding date: December 2024

Travel advisor: Andrea Norfolk

Destination: Punta Cana, Dominican Republic

Resort: Dreams Flora Resort & Spa

How did you meet? We met in 2016 at a party in college but didn't catch each others names. I was hopeful since it was early in the school year that we would cross paths again and a few weeks later we did! We stayed up talking non-stop until almost 5 am that night even though we both had class at 8am. We've talked everyday since.😊

Why did you choose to have a destination wedding? We both knew that we would want to plan something that's fun and intimate with our closest family and friends. We like the idea that we will get to have more than one day to enjoy with our closest loved ones. It's the perfect excuse to get both sides of our family/friends together and away to a tropical paradise (and to escape ND/SD winter for a bit).

Why did you choose your resort and destination? Punta Cana stood out to me the most for a location because that was where I had seen my first destination wedding while Kade and I were early into our relationship and instantly knew I wanted that. We also got engaged in Punta Cana so it felt right to go back for our big day.😊 We chose Dreams Flora because it's beautiful and checked all of the boxes we were looking for. There was also the added bonus of a little less pricier rooms since it opened so recently.
