Destination Weddings in the Dominican Republic

Planning a Dominican Republic destination wedding: where couples marry, what the day looks like, and how to move a whole guest list from the airport.

Why couples choose it

Exchanging vows on a soft Caribbean beach, at sunset, in a place your guests will happily spend a week — that is the whole appeal, and the Dominican Republic delivers it at more price points than almost anywhere else in the region. Punta Cana and Cap Cana on the east coast, Casa de Campo and Bayahibe in the south-east, Samana and Puerto Plata on the north and Atlantic coasts all have resorts running weddings as a routine part of what they do.

Around the ceremony there is a country worth extending the trip for: golf, diving, catamarans, waterfalls, the colonial city. Guests who came for one afternoon usually stay for a holiday.

Talk to your resort's wedding team first

Legal requirements, paperwork and the ceremony itself are handled by your venue's wedding coordinator, and requirements change — always confirm the current rules directly with them and with the relevant authorities before booking anything. We do not advise on marriage documentation.

The part we do handle: getting everyone there

A wedding party is not one booking. It is arrivals spread across two or three days, on different airlines, into potentially different airports, with wildly different luggage. That is exactly the problem private transportation solves:

  • Per-flight arrival transfers. Each group is met inside arrivals with a tablet showing their name, and driven straight to the resort. We monitor every flight, so delayed guests are still met.
  • Vehicles sized to the group. Our fleet runs from small SUVs and minivans through full-size SUVs to a 16-passenger Mercedes Sprinter and a large bus for the whole party.
  • Event-day movements. Ceremony venue, dinner, after-party, and the run back to the resort afterwards.
  • Coordinated departures. Dispatch schedules the return pickups around each flight and reconfirms before the day.

See groups and events transportation for how we run multi-vehicle bookings, and private chauffeur service for the couple's own car.

Which airport for your guests

Punta Cana (PUJ) covers the east coast resorts, La Romana (LRM) is the closest airport to Casa de Campo and Bayahibe, and Santo Domingo (SDQ) often carries the cheaper fare for guests who do not mind a longer drive. Our Dominican Republic airports guide lays out the choice.

Start the transport plan early

Give us the flight list as it firms up and we will build the arrival and departure schedule around it, with a fixed quote per vehicle before anyone pays. Two hours of free waiting time after landing is standard on every arrival, which matters when a whole guest list is clearing immigration at once.

No. Documentation and legal requirements are handled by your resort's wedding coordinator and the relevant authorities — always confirm current rules with them directly.
