Jordan Garcia & Jon Porath's Wedding Website

Punta Cana, Dominican Republic

Unless you have an international phone plan, DO NOT CALL THE MAIN LINE (809-469-7090) OFFERED ON THEIR WEBSITE! This is NOT a toll free number and you will be charged by the minute. Unfortunately, the resort does NOT have a toll free number, so PLEASE be careful about this!

The best way to communicate with the resort if you should have the need regarding reservations is to either call this toll free number: (855)-747-7894. This is their central receiving line. While they will NOT be able to answer specific questions about the resort and may not be able to directly assist you with your room reservations, what they will do is take notes in their system and forward all inquiries to the in-house group handling our blocked room reservations. It will then take 24-48 hours before you hear back from the in-house group, but they will call or email you based on your preference. I confirmed with central receiving that when the in-house group calls you, you will NOT be charged any international fees. Your other option is to simply email: concierge@hyatt.com and someone will be in touch with you within 24-48 hours. In any communications with Hyatt, please reference Porath and Garcia Wedding Group, and our Group Code is: G-GWED. Our wedding group link to blocked rooms: Weblink - Porath Wedding (link embedded). Please note this wedding group link is ONLY for the Hyatt Zilara Cap Cana Punta Cana (adults-only), and does not include any blocked rooms for the Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana Punta Cana (family-friendly).

Again, central receiving may not even be able to pull up our reservations when referencing Porath and Garcia wedding or our group code, but do not be alarmed, they will take down that information to pass on to the in-house group.

It is not required for you to call or email the resort to book your room, only if it is your preference. Otherwise, you can simply make your reservations directly through our wedding group link to access our blocked rooms, UNLESS you are booking a family-friendly room at the Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana Punta Cana. In that event, you can simply make your reservations directly through the Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana Punta Cana website: https://www.resortsbyhyatt.com/ziva-cap-cana (link embedded)

When booking your flight, you will want to plan for your flight to land at the Punta Cana International Airport in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic (PUJ) as this airport is closest to the resort. (15 minutes away from Hyatt Zilara and Ziva)

Wedding events begin Saturday, April 30th, 5:00pm-10:00pm (Wedding Ceremony and Reception) through Sunday, May 1st, 10:00am-12:00pm (Thank-You Brunch).

We decided to forgo hosting a rehearsal dinner Friday, April 29th in order for you to have more freedom on your vacation in hopes you will take advantage of the inclusive resort and enjoy the fabulous restaurants and activities the resort has to offer.

Don't forget to pack your Passport! If you do not already have a passport or if it is due to expire prior to your travel date, you can easily apply (or renew) through your local post office (check in advance to confirm they accommodate this service as not all do). Please note that applying and receiving your passport can take several months to receive and even worse now due to COVID, so we encourage you to make arrangements no later than October of 2021 to make sure it arrives prior to your vacation.

While in Punta Cana in April you can plan to enjoy fairly consistent weather with ample sun, few clouds, and complementary island breeze with daytime temperature highs in the 80's and nightly lows in the 70's.
