Because Ashley and Tyler are the type of people to never turn down an adventure, they jetted off to Washington State for some fun engagement photos in the Hoh Rainforest and La Push beach just a few months before their January destination beach wedding in the Dominican. As a couple, they knew they wanted to do a few different things than what they’ve seen in the past when it came to their big day. We promise you'll want to keep scrolling to see all of the photography captured by Bree Smith Photography + Tyler Wood that showed just how gorgeous this customized destination turned out for the happy couple!
Dreams Macao Beach made for the perfect wedding venue with rooftop reception spaces and a grand staircase built for epic portraits. The entire property was an incredible pick for Ashley and Tyler and their guests, as they stayed the whole week, going on fun excursions and partying it up by the pool.
Bride Ashley created a bold, monochromatic moment for her girls with all-white bridesmaids' dresses, while she donned a stunning, off-white and nude trumpet style gown.
Tyler wore a deeper brown suit from BlackTie Formalwear, and his groomsmen wore lighter cream suits. These color choices made their wedding day stand out with an elegant naturally neutral color palette.
CR Flowers provided a beautiful arrangement of toffee and white roses for the bride and groom, as well as their wedding party. The bridesmaids held toffee and peach floral bouquets while Ashley held a simple, all-white rose bouquet.
The couple's ceremony space had simple, yet stunning floral arrangements from the arbor to the pieces that lined their aisle. The same toffee and white colors, accented with greenery, took center stage.

The reception was hosted on a rooftop overlooking the ocean. They had a large selection of different meats and sides for their buffet, including a delicious cordon bleu and beef tenderloin with mixed veggies and potatoes.
