Your Rio de Janeiro Honeymoon, Planned to Perfection
Rio de Janeiro is one of the world's most romantic honeymoon destinations — and for good reason. 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.
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.
As a mid-range destination, Rio de Janeiro offers honeymooners exactly what the first trip of your marriage deserves: Copacabana, Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf, Carnival, caipirinha. The Wedding Unicorn plans every detail of your Rio de Janeiro honeymoon — from suite upgrades and private beach setups to surprise in-room amenities and exclusive sunset excursions that aren't available through standard booking.
We work with the finest resorts and boutique properties in Rio de Janeiro to secure the best honeymoon packages, negotiate complimentary upgrades, and arrange romantic touches that make your first week as a married couple genuinely unforgettable. Our planners have firsthand knowledge of the properties that actually deliver on their honeymoon promises.
