Destination wedding in Punta Cana

4 Days in Mar
Caribbean/Central America

Route Details

Went to Punta Cana for a friend’s wedding and booked everything through Nexus Tours. The airport transfers were included and we stayed at the Royalton Punta Cana. Beautiful rooms and grounds. Great, friendly staff. It says it’s a resort and casino but the casino was under construction and closed, which was a bummer. Food was fine, nothing spectacular though. The coffee is what stood out the most, wish we bought some to bring back.

The spa was incredible – they did a great job with our hair and makeup for the wedding. All the bridesmaids were impressed. My boyfriend got a massage – said it was one of the best of his life.

I don’t think the rehearsal dinner and wedding could have been more perfect. It was a beautiful setup and the bridge and groom were very happy with the experience. The wedding planner was very in charge and responsive, made it very easy for them. I don’t think it could have been more perfect.

You can book excursions through Nexus, but we didn’t have a lot of time with the wedding festivities so we spent our free time around the resort.  Others in the wedding party booked an excursion where they went snorkeling (pretty good), but the best part was when the boat pulled up by a sand bar in the middle of the water. They loved standing in the shallow water and enjoyed some rum drinks.

Mamajuana is the Punta Cana drink – it’s disgusting and wonderful at the same time. Definitely try it. You can take it home with you if you buy the liquid kind. If you try and bring the dry kind that you add your own rum, you won’t get through customs.

You don’t really leave the resort on foot, so you’d need a rental car or tour group to take you somewhere else. We could have stayed for another 5 days and relaxed/saw some more of the island but schedules didn’t allow.
