There will be approx. 10-15 people flying from canada and about 10-15 people from the dominican attending our wedding. I have tried to e-mail various resorts but have not heard back from one. Our guests from canada will be saying on one of the resort for approx. 1 week and our guests from the domincian will be staying at least one or two nights each. If anyone can give us some suggestions, comments, tips we would be so grateful. Thanking everyone in advance for your time. Linda & Johnny

Many Dominican businesses are not yet very e-business savy. You will need to find phone numbers and call them individually. Many of the AI's are chain operations and their reservation offices are not on site.
Since you are looking for a special booking you want to ask immediately for a supervisor or special event manager.
I don't know if you have already set your mind on a particular hotel. One of the most prestigious places around Puerto Plata, in my personal opinion is the Costa Dorada Iberostar. You will find their web site searching the Internet as well as others in Playa Dorada which also offers some ideal settings for a wedding.
You will need to
negotiate a good rate (and you should get a special one, since you will be a fairly large group). Most hotels offer have wedding specials and like to arrange for "the whole nine yards", but I can't say if it's a financially advantageous way to go. In any case you want more than just the complimentary bottle of champagne and fruit basket in your room!
I wish you good luck with both, your wedding and your marriage.
... J-D.
