The Couple

Keith and Marquita met again at their high school 10-year reunion. After some time dating, Keith proposed on her birthday, during game night. With the help of Destify, they chose to get married in Punta Cana.

The Planning

The couple chose the Royalton Bavaro all-inclusive resort in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. There were some communication errors at times, but overall the process with their Destify agent Tiffany went smoothly. Marquita said, “She worked hard to make things better”.

The Wedding

The bulk of the wedding party chose to stay for 4 days and 3 nights at the resort. The couple had plenty of time to enjoy the company of their guests and participated in the Royalton white party, and group dinners together. The couple held their ceremony at 2pm at the beach gazebo, with ocean views. The couple do wish their ceremony had been later, as it felt like there was too much time between the ceremony and the reception. When asked about her favorite memories, Marquita said, “Taking pictures was great”.

Looking Back

The couples’ main advice is to ask all the questions you may think of because communication is key. Consider more about the timeslots of both your ceremony and the reception.
