Answer
Kids are allowed at Dreams Onyx Resort. However, this is a kid-free wedding. https://www.hyattinclusivecollection.com/en/resorts-hotels/dreams/dominican-republic/onyx-resort-spa/activities/
Question
Do I have to stay at the same resort as the wedding?
Answer
It is not mandatory that you stay at the same resort as the wedding. However, we highly recommend that you do, due to additional cost for day-passes. Wedding pass $55 / All day pass $125
Question
What is the color theme and attire for the day of the wedding?
Answer
Think tropical! Bright, fun, vibrant colors (not mandatory). Wedding day is definitely island attire: beach casual. Plan to dress light and breezy, since the air will be warm and humid. For the ladies, nice sundress or capris with sandals is ideal. For the men, khaki slacks, linen shirts, and nice sandals as well. Ceremony & Cocktail hour will be outdoors. Reception will be indoors.
Question
Will there be group activities, excursions, etc. planned?
Answer
We will plan wedding group activities for our time at the resort. We'll provide more details closer to the travel dates. Note: Some "excursions" may be extra, so you will be able to opt in and decide whether you want to be included.
