I'm not sure I agree with getting married and starting the entire process over again.  You mentioned the 5th piece of evidence the officer was asking for was proof of joint assets, which is not required for a K-1 visa.  That missing piece of documentation is most likely the reason for the visa refusal, no matter how unfair it may be.  I Googled it and found this tid bit:

It's not necessarily something that can't be overcome.  I would suggest adding your fiance's name to your utility bill, or something similar, then bring that back to them.  You could also try calling or emailing the consulate, ask for a supervisor, find someone in charge to help straighten it out.  I am sure you are not the only one that's run into road blocks due to mistakes made on their part.

If that doesn't work, it may be cheaper and faster to hire an attorney rather than start the whole process over again with CR-1 visa application.  Maybe at least get some good advice from a knowledgeable attorney before making a next step.

The U.S. Department of State website says:

Unfortunately, from what I've read, the Dominican Republic is considered a high fraud county and therefore the already overworked consulate is under more pressure to screen applicants.  It looks like the situation is going to get worse before it gets better.

Hang in there.  It will all be worth the wait.

The actual instructions specify black ink, so I'd stick with that.
