a dream come true!

We found Dream Destination Weddings after scouring reviews for a wedding planning team in the Dominican Republic. Planning a wedding is hard, planning a destination wedding, site unseen from the US was so daunting. But Wendy and Maddy (and Danny!) made all of our dreams, hopes, and pinterest boards come to life! We started planning 1 year in advance, the monthly zoom meetings were very convenient and flexible. Wendy and Maddy immediately understood our vision and the shared Pinterest board was a hit. Communication with this team was wonderful, they were always extremely prompt and forthcoming. We planned a 20 person wedding on the beachside, garden grounds of a villa (Villa Cocomar in Caberete). Like with all wedding planning journeys we had some hiccups along the way but this team came through with even better alternate plans! Just a few weeks before the wedding our musicians fell through due to COVID travel issues, Maddy and Wendy found an incredibly talented local 3 piece orchestral band who played all of our song requests including some Persian pieces. So special! We wanted to incorporate a Persian rug in the ceremony, difficult to find in the Dominican Republic but somehow Maddy came through with a gorgeous rug! We wanted the event to be romantic, classic, but still boho/beachy, and this team NAILED IT. The floral arch, the charceuterie style grazing table, tapas, dessert table, and naked cake came out perfect! No detail went untouched! The team of chefs, wait staff, DJs, light/sound, and florist/decorator that Dream Destination Weddings has in the Dominican Republic is something straight out of a TLC wedding show or a movie. Maddy was the ultimate coordinator the days leading up to the wedding and especially on the day event itself. She simultaneously wiped my over-emotional tears and waved her magic wand to to orchestrate every detail into place. Our guests are still raving about how dreamy, aesthetic, and gorgeous our wedding was! (I think the photos speak for themselves, credit to our lovely photographers Phosphilic). When we say this team went above and beyond, we truly mean it. They even helped us plan, coordinate, and execute different excursions through the wedding week for our guests. The seafood boil rehearsal dinner, catamaran boat trip, fishing trip, and golf outings were a smashing success. Wendy, Maddy, and Danny welcomed us into their family and we are forever grateful for all their hardwork, unending patience, love and exquisite attention to detail.

Beach wedding

Maddy was so amazing! She was dealing with the most stressed and indecisive bride (me!!! Lol) and handled the situation with professionalism and grace! After several failed attempts with other planners Maddy came through and put together a beautiful ceremony/reception in 4 weeks!!! Her spirit is beautiful and she was absolutely lovely to work with! Maddy’s clear and direct communication made the weeks leading up to our wedding a little less challenging and for that I will forever be grateful. She truly loves what she does and it shows! You will not be disappointed working with Maddy, I’d choose her before looking at any resort venues 1,000 over!! My husband, a man of few words, was extremely impressed with how Maddy and her team made our day so special! Trust me when I tell you….You will not be disappointed with Maddy or her team! Thank you Maddy for everything!

Wendy Is Simply Amazing

Wendy was truly a godsend for Steven and me. We initially started off planning a Canadian wedding, but that was scrapped for several reasons. Wendy recalibrated, knowing we wanted a mountainside wedding, and scoured the U.S. from east to west coast to find us the perfect venue. And she definitely succeeded! We could not have asked for a better wedding planning experience, and Wendy was there every step of the way taking the lead to coordinate with the venue and vendors. We are so thankful that we found Destination Dream Wedding and had the opportunity to work with Wendy. It was the perfect day due in large part to Wendy's hard work.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
