If you book your room through the resort website, be careful as they can be glitchy. Booking through Orbitz or Expedia is a bit smoother process. Check the price on both sites, as they can vary.

This depends on where you're staying. If you stay at the Riu Resort, you will be able to walk to the venue on the beach. For guests staying at Lopesan Costa Bavaro Resort, a shuttle will be provided to and from the wedding venue.

The wedding ceremony will be held in a pavilion next to the beach. The reception will be indoors.

We are having an unplugged ceremony. We ask that you do not take pictures during the ceremony so that you can join us during this very special moment in our lives. After the ceremony you are welcome to take pictures.

The answer is SI!

There will be hor d'oeuvres served during cocktail hour. Dinner will be a three course meal that has been predetermined. If you have any specific dietary needs, please lets us know so that you can be accommodated.

Matthew is planning on setting up a round of golf with those who are interested. We are thinking of setting up either a Dune Buggy Adventure or Catamaran with everyone if there is enough interest. More details to follow.

We know it's a big ask to have everyone travel to the Dominican Republic for our wedding. That is a gift in and of itself. We don't want anyone spending any more on us than their travel expenses.
