HI Mairelys,
I have not officially booked with any hotel but we are leaning towards Dreams Palm Beach. 2 years ago I stayed at Ocean Blue and Sand. I have to say I had no complaints. It is not considered one of the top hotels in Punta Cana but I really liked that it was small enough that I didnt have to wait for a trolley to get around. I heard Dreams Palm Beach is also small but better so that is why we are considering DPB.
it all depends on what is important to you and your guests. If we choose Dreams we would all be staying in the Priveledge section because top shelf alcohol is important to us.
Good Luck

Thanks so much! Smaller is definitely important to us; that helps a lot!

And just to contribute, this is what our travel agent (which we're not sure if we're going with... haven't heard anything since January from them!) gave us this info.
Dreams Punta Cana (expansive free-form pool, excellent kids club, 5-star, more North so more quiet beach, beautiful gazebo)
Gran Bahia Principe (larger complex, great gazebos, 4-star, friendly/lively atmosphere)
Majestic Colonial Resort (free weddings, excellent service, 4.5 star, next door Majestic Elegance is 5-star)
Ocean Blue/Sand (homey atmosphere, quaint, central plaza, cool coffee shop, colorful buildings, 4.5-star, great service)
Paradisus Punta Cana (5-star luxury, 'The Reserve' is boutique resort within resort, northern location in Punta Cana resort area so more private, high attention to detail/service, feel spoiled, gorgeous beach gazebo)
RIU Bambu (4-star affordable, lively/fun, basic rooms, nice beach - more North so more beach space, clean/friendly, good food)
RIU Palace Punta Cana (5-star, elegant/ grandiose - like a real palace, glitzy, great food, everything central within resort, beautiful gazebo)
Sirenis Cocotal (4-star, great value for money, gorgeous and one of biggest beach, basic amenities but good service)

Hey ladies, I have another question...
For those of you who have/are getting married in July, when will you start getting ready? And what time did you get married? Trying to piece together my timeline, or just get a basic idea.
