Dominican Republic

The Dominican Republic’s east coast offers some of the most photogenic beaches in the Caribbean: miles of palm-lined, powder-white sand with calm, crystalline water.

Miches, Dominican Republic

Zemi Miches Punta Cana is a Curio Collection by Hilton resort on the emerging Miches coast, one of the Dominican Republic’s last unspoiled stretches of shoreline.

For couples who want a beach that doesn’t look like every other Punta Cana resort photo, Miches offers something genuinely different. The Hilton brand’s service standards and the resort’s modern design add polish to the raw natural beauty.

Beach Wedding Resort FAQs

What makes a resort good for a beach wedding?

The beach itself matters (calm water, clean sand, good photo backdrop), but equally important are the wedding planning infrastructure, package options, and guest amenities. The best beach wedding resorts have dedicated ceremony areas on the beach, experienced coordinators, tiered packages that fit different budgets, and all inclusive formats that keep guest costs simple.

Which destination has the best beaches for weddings?

It depends on the look you want. For classic white sand and turquoise water: Punta Cana (DR) and the Riviera Maya (Mexico). For dramatic Pacific sunsets: Mazatlan (Mexico). For the clearest water and most reliable weather: Aruba. For something visually unique: Curacao’s coves or St. Lucia’s volcanic harbor. For laid-back island energy: Negril (Jamaica).

Are beach ceremonies included in all inclusive wedding packages?

At most all inclusive resorts, yes. Beach ceremony venues are typically included in base and complimentary wedding packages. Private terraces, ballrooms, and specialty indoor venues often carry additional rental fees. The beach is usually the most affordable and most beautiful ceremony option.
