My husband and I decided to have a destination wedding in Punta Cana. I worked with a travel agent who handled the logistics of our travel arrangements. I told her what I was looking for and she found the perfect location for our ceremony. In Punta Cana, warmth radiates from the tropical sun and the Caribbean Sea. Excellence El Carmen is an Adults Only Resort. This resort was secluded and romantic, with charming rooms and suites.

My wedding was beyond anything I could have ever imagined. It was off to a rocky start, but it quickly turned around and ended perfectly. The day my parents were scheduled to fly out my mom had  flight issues and was not able to fly out as planned. It started to look like she wouldn’t be able to make it to our wedding... but, God! He got my mom to Punta Cana the day of my wedding! 

Getting married on the beach was a dream come true. One thing I did not take into consideration was the wind whipping off of the ocean. I felt my hair blowing uncontrollably, my veil comb loosening up from my neatly pinned bun. But, there was something so beautiful about the wind blowing and the sound of the ocean waves crashing against the sand. It almost felt as though a powerful presences was there with me... Hey Gram! I tied a charm around my bouquet so I could have my grandma with me every step of the way. I know the movement of the elements was her way of showing me she was already there.
