Wedding Planning

Attracting wedding parties and honeymooners from around the world, Rio Mar Beach Resort & Spa is ideally located on a lush 500-acre hideaway just south of San Juan. Reminiscent of a sprawling Spanish plantation home, the resort greets romantics with sliding mahogany doors into a lobby touting views of the resort's Marbella gardens and the bronze sand beach.

Weddings at Rio Mar Beach range from traditional ceremonies to intimate gatherings - each capturing the couple's personal preference. Our staff will manage all the details for your once-in-a-lifetime event.

Ceremonies & Celebrations

Marrying elegance and style with breathtaking Caribbean backdrops, Rio Mar offers a variety of venues including 60,000 square feet of luxurious indoor and outdoor options.

Outdoor Options
For occasions beneath the sun or stars, the Ocean Terrace, Vista Verde Garden, Wedding Gazebo and La Playa Beach Event Area are available for the special ceremony. Each reception area beckons brides-to-be with spectacular views of the resort's mile-long beach and the tranquil sound of waves meeting the shore. Surrounded by lush gardens and exotic flora, the new wedding Gazebo serves as a picture perfect place to exchange vows or celebrate with friends and family from sunset to sunrise. Adjoined to the Las Brisas Patio, where a striking water fountain dares to distract from the breathtaking Caribbean backdrop, the Gazebo offers a seating capacity up to 80 guests, as well as plenty of room for a crowd-pleasing musical trio.

Indoor Options
For indoor options at the resort, the Oceanfront Conference Center spans 48,000 square feet and is adorned with "Old World" style lantern chandeliers and wrought iron candelabras. An ideal spot for romantic ceremonies, the 21,000- square-foot Rio Mar Ballroom is the "pride and joy" of the Oceanfront Conference Center. Accented with bold columns, intricately crafted crown moldings and palm imprinted walls, the ballroom creates an ambiance of elegance and attention to detail that characterizes the resort. Down the hall, the 6,500-square-foot Caribbean Ballroom overlooks the ocean and the Tom and George Fazio designed Ocean Golf Course.
