Glamorous destination wedding in Hard Rock Punta Cana / Jess &Bill

Due to the fact that Jess and Bill first met in high school 18 years ago, their destination wedding in Punta Cana was attended by all of their closest friends from that time.

They knew they were prepared to advance in their relationship after 11 years of dating. The Dominican Republic’s Hard Rock Punta Cana was the venue they selected for their wedding because they found it to be simple and hassle-free, making it the ideal spot for them.

Like many couples, they reasoned that scheduling a site inspection might be a good idea to learn specifics about their wedding venue. They visited the property a year before their wedding and immediately fell in love. “We put hands down and began the entire wedding planning process because”, as Jess explains, “it was kids-friendly and reasonably close to the airport”.

It was perfect that Bill says, “We didn’t really have a wedding theme, it was St. Patrick’s Day so we just kind of went with that for the suits, etc. Without being too over the top”.

The Harmonica Gazebo, after renovation, served as the location of their wedding. Lots of real flowers, chandeliers, and elaborate curtains were used to decorate the space. The entire wedding idea was given a glamorous feel by it.

The party at Element Terrace, in our opinion, was the highlight of the entire celebration. Everyone jumped onto the dance floor after dinner and continued to dance all night. For their show, they hired an entertainment company, and I thought that was pretty entertaining. They had the largest collection we had for photos and videos, so we had fun with them up until the very end of the reception.
