Getting Married in Rio de Janeiro

Rio de Janeiro is a breathtaking destination-wedding location. Rio de Janeiro is one of the world's most beautiful cities — where Sugarloaf Mountain, Christ the Redeemer, and the curves of Copacabana and Ipanema beaches create a natural setting of extraordinary drama. Carnival is the world's greatest party; the rest of the year is nearly as good.

Rio beach and fazenda (ranch) ceremonies are spectacular. Christ the Redeemer views can be incorporated into photography. Brazilian civil marriages are legally recognized.

The Wedding Unicorn coordinates Rio de Janeiro destination weddings end-to-end — venue sourcing and negotiation, vendor coordination (photographers, florists, caterers, musicians), legal marriage documentation, guest travel block negotiation, multi-day event itineraries (welcome dinner, rehearsal, ceremony, day-after brunch), and complete day-of management.

We know what Rio de Janeiro requires for legal or symbolic ceremonies, and we have the vendor relationships to deliver quality that matches the extraordinary setting. The view from Sugarloaf Mountain at sunset — Rio's curves spread below you, the Atlantic beyond, Christ the Redeemer glowing above — is one of the world's great panoramas.
