I want to drop a quick line about my experience at Flor de Cabrera in the Dominican Republic. It is one of the most outstanding villas for weddings in the Dominican Republic. I experienced first hand, the handcrafted experience couples would receive at the villa. Being invited as the exclusive photographer for the wedding planning weekend was a great honor. I had a chance to meet couples who are planning their weddings at Flor de Cabrera in the next year. It was a very pleasant group, the owners Dan and Ruthie, Kellie and Jonathan, Natasha and Andre, Christian and Trisha, Veronica, Monica and Tiffany. At times it felt like a reality TV show, and I mean that in a good way. Not that often do you end up with perfect strangers in a large house, and leave friends. The in house staff was phenomenal. Luben, the head chef, created some amazing meals. My favorite was the surf and turf, lobster wrapped in filet mignon. Melvin, Arturo, Ray and all the staff were phenomenal. Barbara Estavez, a great wedding planner from Santiago, did a fantastic job setting up table settings and giving the couples some great options. One of the highlights of the trip for me personally, was the bonfire beach dinner on our last night at the villa. There was great company, fantastic food and a warm fire. I took one of my favorite images there of Christian and Trisha with the silhouette of the fire. I can not wait to go back to Villa Flor de Cabrera.
