Frequently Asked Questions
How many gazebo & pavilion wedding venues are there in Dominican Republic?
DreamWed works with 40 gazebo & pavilion wedding venues across 16 resorts in Dominican Republic. Capacities run from 0 to 250 guests, so there are options for both small ceremonies and large multi-day celebrations.
What is the largest gazebo wedding venue in Dominican Republic?
The largest in our portfolio seats up to 250 guests. Capacity figures are the resort's stated maximum for a seated event — the workable number is usually lower once you add a dance floor, staging or buffet, so confirm the layout with us before you commit to a guest list.
Can we hold both the ceremony and reception at the same venue?
Often yes, though most couples move between spaces — a gazebo setting for the ceremony, then a separate space for dinner and dancing. Resorts usually allow a turnover if the guest count fits both. We plan the flow so guests are never left waiting.
What happens if it rains?
Every resort holds an indoor backup, normally a ballroom, and calls it a few hours ahead based on the forecast. Ask what the backup space actually is before booking — it varies a lot in quality between properties, and it is the single most useful question you can ask about an outdoor venue.
