Lopesan Costa Bavaro I Punta Cana, Dominican Republic
Hi everyone!
We are so excited to share our special day with you! We have created this website as a helpful resource for those interested in joining us at our upcoming wedding in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic.
Here, you will find important details including an itinerary, FAQs, & travel accommodations. You can officially RSVP by booking your room through this site. Thank you for all of your love & support so far! Please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions.
Love, Ryan & Natalie
Ryan and Natalie’s story began at Rocket Mortgage, where Ryan was a director and Natalie was a new banker, eager to prove herself. At first, they were just colleagues, but over time, they found themselves working on projects together, sharing lunch breaks, and having long conversations about everything from work to their favorite movies.
As they got to know each other, their friendship grew stronger. Ryan admired Natalie’s ambition, warmth, and sense of humor, while Natalie was drawn to Ryan’s kindness, leadership, and the way he made her feel supported. What started as simple camaraderie slowly turned into something deeper, and before they knew it, they had fallen in love.
Now, Ryan and Natalie are a family with her son, Adam—a curious, lively boy who’s inherited both their love for adventure and their kindness. Together, the three of them make their own little world of love, laughter, and support. Their journey from coworkers to friends, and finally to a family, is a beautiful reminder that love can blossom in the most unexpected places.
