Dominican Republic Ranks High among Top Wedding Destinations

The Dominican Republic made the top five in the list of top wedding destinations for Britons, travel company Thomas Cook reported.

Although coastal resorts are still proving popular for those wanting to tie the knot overseas, a growing number are now looking for something different for their nuptials, said. Romantic castles, islands and ancient hilltop villages are among the more popular choices.

Italy has been catapulted up to fourth place in the list of top wedding destinations for Britons wanting to marry abroad.

The top destination is Cyprus, followed by Greece, Cuba, Italy and the Dominican Republic. For honeymoons Mauritius is number one.
