PLEASE HELP!!! I DO NOT KNOW WHAT RESORT TO PICK,HELP!!

TheMullens · January 4, 2013

Hello Everyone,

My name is Nadia and I am getting married Oct 26, 2013. We first started to plan for Dreams in Punta Cana. We opted out of that because the ceremony had to be outdoors and our theme was more of an elegant affair. My family and friends were concerned about being uncomfotbale with the heat and humidity =(

The next place we started to look at was Azul Sensatori but we are having seconds thoughts. It looks like we have to purchase everything for our reception seperately and will be costing us more than what we had in mind. Our families are also concerned that Mexico is not safe. I really feel at a lost and so overwhelmed. I am really hoping that someone here can help me. What resort would you recommend in Dominican Republic? What resort has the best wedding package? We are looking for 30-40 guests.

Thank you so much!

Nadia

Hello Naida,

Sorry to hear that the North American media has made your family think that Mexico is not safe. Did you know that the Riviera Maya, which is in the state of Quintana Roo, had a lower crime rate than Wichita, Kansas in 2011? The problems in Mexico, while real, are concentrated around the borders and a few West Coast states, more than a 1,000 miles from here.

We have lived and worked here for more than two years without incident.

Take a look at this post, it might help you decide which resort to choose in the Riviera Maya.
