Default Help!!

Hi everyone,

I am starting to stress. We were planning on getting married in Punta Cana in April. The prices are coming back more than what we would like to ask our guests to pay. I have been looking into Puerto Plata as it seems a little cheaper. I am looking for a good resort that has some type of dinner package. I am expecting somewhere between 20-35. Thanks so much.

Maybe you should talk to one of the TA's on the forum. I'm sure they could recommend a place for you.

What's your budget? If you've only gotten one quote, I suggest getting more. If you find a TA you like, they can hopefully match the lowest price you find (if you find it somewhere else).

Thanks for your replies. I have gotten quotes from several travel agents.

What about going after a group rate if you are planning on that many? Although with group you usually need 10 to secure and only a short time to make the deposit.

I have friends that got married at the Coral Marien in April. They're pics were nice. Also, there's the Bahia San Jaun and the Riu's in Puerto Plata.
