Celebrate With Us

Our story is a classic case of "everything works out the way it should." When we met in college, we had no idea how perfectly our lives would soon align in order to bring us together at the right time. After reconnecting years later, it only took a week to realize we had found our person. Our hearts were always with each other, even when we were on opposite sides of the world. 

Of all the places life has and could have taken us, we're grateful that it brought us here. Now we get to have our greatest adventures together.

la romana

We wanted our wedding to feel effortless, tropical, and romantic while making the absolute most of the experience. A destination wedding feels very us; a chance to slow down and take it all in while filling our days with laughter, sunshine, and pina coladas.

We've chosen Secrets La Romana, an all-inclusive resort in La Romana, Dominican Republic, offering beautiful beaches, exceptional dining, luxurious accommodations, and everything our guests need for an unforgettable wedding getaway.

Why We Chose

EXPLORE & ENJOY THE DESTINATION

La Romana, Dominican Republic

Our wedding may be the reason you're here, but we hope you'll stay long enough to experience everything this beautiful destination has to offer. Below are a few of the area's most popular attractions to help you explore, unwind, and make the most of your stay.

SAONA ISLAND

Escape to one of the Dominican Republic’s most iconic islands, known for its powdery white-sand beaches, crystal-clear turquoise waters, and natural swimming pools. A perfect day trip for soaking up the Caribbean scenery.

catalina island

A tropical island just off the coast of La Romana, Catalina is known for its clear waters, beautiful beaches, and excellent snorkeling. Spend the day swimming, relaxing, or exploring the colorful marine life just offshore.

DRESS CODE

What to Wear for Our Celebration

Our wedding dress code is Resort Formal; think elegant, polished, and tropical. For the ladies: Floor-length, midi or maxi dresses, elegant jumpsuits, and dressy separates are all welcome. Wedges, flats, or sandals are recommended over heels since we will be in grass. For the gentlemen: Suits or dress pants with a button-down and dress shoes. Ties are welcome but not required. A special note on wedding colors: since we won't be having a traditional wedding party, we're asking a few of our closest family and friends to wear colors from our wedding palette. Unless you've been specifically asked, please avoid wearing green to help us bring our vision to life!
