🚨REVIEW🚨
Our wedding took place on February 22nd, and to say Kukua surpassed our expectations is an understatement. Brides please understand that whatever you think your wedding will be like, please multiply that by a million.

Pre-wedding Rachel (wedding planner)
My husband was set on having our wedding in Punta Cana although I was already sold to have it in Mexico. I told him the only way I would do it in Punta Cana is if he could magically find a perfect sweet wedding planner that I would click with and then it’s a done deal. That’s when he introduced me to the amazing Rachel. We immediately clicked and she planned my wedding perfectly to the T. Ladies listen up, the photos Rachel show you of past weddings don’t even do the venue justest. Rachel was easy to contact and she made me feel so confident about my wedding. What impressed me the most is that even though she has so many of you girls to worry about, she never missed a single detail for my wedding. She thought of everything and you can tell she really cares about you. You know those wedding planners you see in movies… how awesome and cool they are? Well Rachel is even better than that. We really felt like we were well taken care of. We love you Rachel.

Venue // Mayte:
The tasting meeting was one of my highlights. Going in… a few days before our wedding is essential. You get to see the beautiful venue (even better in person) and taste their amazing food. Mayte was such an angel. Such a professional women and really knows how to run the place. I recommend Kukua and the team if you’re looking for a stress free option. I really notice how wonderful Mayte and Rachel are as a team.

Makeup: Olga Montilla

10/10… Wow, Olga Montilla and her team did a fantastic job on my makeup and hair for my wedding day. I came across the most recommended MUA from Kukua's past brides which was Olga. Without any hesitation I chose Olga and her team. She was super easy to contact, responded to me within the hour and made me feel super comfortable even from across the globe. Meeting her on my wedding day confirmed all my instincts. She was super professional, talented and gorgeous! All my bridal party was ecstatic with their makeup and hair. I told her that I loved pink shadow and to do "whatever" with my hair and she pulled through! She made me look like a model and i'm so happy! Olga also is a great content creator. She took great shots of my hair and makeup and sent them over the next day! Although she does see brides everyday, she made me feel like I was the bride of the year and I truly felt special! Anyways, thank you Olga and your amazing team! 🙂

Photogrpahy: Junior Cruz
I have to say.. do not look further!! I am sure there are other great photographers but let me speak about my experience..
Junior Cruz killed it! He knew how to put us in situations to get the best photos out of us. He knows the Venue by heart and know when the sun is hitting to hard or not. We took the 1400$ package and got 1600 photos and a slife show. The amount and quality of photos that you will get from Junior Cruz is insane! Highly recommend Junior Cruz!

We had brought down our videographers so we can have them for the entire week including the wedding. best decision ever! We have a 25 minute video of the entire week including the wedding day with all our guests. You might want to consider this option!!

Bottom line, wow what a fantastic experience. To anyone who ever questioned about having their wedding down south, please know it’s the most smooth option available with Kukua. One of my girlfriends is getting married in our hometown in Montreal Canada… and to see all the stress she is going through to plan her wedding makes my husband and I so grateful for Kukua.

We had our beautiful wedding at Kukua on 5/23/23. We always wanted a destination wedding and after looking into multiple hotel venue weddings we stumbled upon the Kukua website and fell in love with all the pictures. Planning a wedding at Kukua was the easiest, most stress free experience. After emailing them, I received a reply from Rachel no more than 2 days later. Rachel is the best and so helpful throughout the whole process. She was always available every time I messaged her. I told her my vision and she helped me plan the whole wedding while still staying within my budget. I got to meet Mayte when I went to DR for a site visit and tasting, and she is the sweetest and most caring person I have ever met. There were no weddings the day I went for the visit, so from seeing Kukua decoration-free to seeing the amazing decorations Mayte did on my wedding day was completely mind blowing.
Mayte made my dream wedding come to life! The decor was beyond what I could’ve imagined or asked for. The food, appetizers, desserts, and drinks were AMAZING! Everyone keeps telling me, until this day, how beautiful my wedding was. I 10/10 would recommend Kukua for a destination wedding. Rachel and Mayte were the best wedding planners I could’ve asked for.

We had our dream wedding at Kukua April 14th 2023 & it truly was more than either of us could have imagined. Being a resident in NY & planning a destination wedding seemed daunting until I found beautiful Kukua. Rachel (pur wedding planner assigned to us by kukua) was an absolute gem!! She took our budget & made magic happen. Mayte who handled things in Punta Cana is a visionary!!!! The two if them exceeded any expectation I had. The food, dj, crazy hour, dessert bar, decor etc etc was AMAZING. not only was our wedding amazing for a destination wedding-- it was amazing for ANY type of wedding. No regrets I would do it all over again a million times. Thank you Rachel, Mayte, & the whole kukua team!!!!
