Why Book Your RIU Wedding With Us?
RIU Hotels offer the perfect balance of fun, luxury, and value. But choosing between a “RIU Palace” and a “RIU Classic” can make or break your group’s experience. As Certified RIU Specialists, we ensure your wedding has the right vibe, the right budget, and the best exchange privileges.
Brand-Specific Credentials
These credentials prove we have studied the specific resort brand and have a direct line to hotel management.
Certified RIU Specialist
Official Agency Certification
This is the official specialist certification for RIU Hotels & Resorts. It means our agents have completed specific training on the distinctions between the Palace (Luxury) and Classic (Standard) lines, ensuring we match your wedding vision to the right property.
ALG Vacations “Elite” / “Wavemaker” Status
We hold top-tier status with the massive tour operators that power these weddings. This volume gives us leverage. If your wedding group encounters an issue, such as a flight cancellation or room category error, our status gives us a dedicated support line to fix it instantly.
Wedding & Industry Certifications
We understand room blocks, attrition dates, and complex wedding contracts—not just nice pools.
DWHSA Member
We are members of the Destination Wedding & Honeymoon Specialists Association. We undergo training specifically on managing weddings that involve large groups with varying budgets—a specialty of RIU weddings.

Exclusive Perks: Depending on the specific property and package, our clients often receive complimentary upgrades, Renova Spa credits, or welcome amenities.

Iconic Views of The Arch
Riu Palace Cabo San Lucas
“We wanted that classic view of the Cabo Arch, and RIU Palace delivered. The hotel is gorgeous. Our agent advised us to book the Palace so we could have access to the Santa Fe party pool next door but sleep in luxury. The agency managed our group of 80 perfectly, including the airport transfers.”
Modern Luxury & Great Beach
Riu Palace Costa Mujeres (Cancun)
“We didn’t want the seaweed issues of the Riviera Maya. Our agent suggested the new Costa Mujeres area north of Cancun. It was spot on. The beach was pristine. We also loved that we could take the water taxi over to the Riu Dunamar for the water park. A perfect mix for our family guests.”
Adults-Only Elegance
Riu Palace Jamaica (Montego Bay)
“We wanted an adults-only wedding, but had family with kids. Our agent set up the perfect ‘Split Stay.’ We stayed at the Adults-Only RIU Palace Jamaica, and the families stayed next door at RIU Montego Bay. We got our quiet luxury, but could still see our nieces and nephews at the beach. Expert planning.”
High-Rise Glamour
Riu Palace Aruba
“Aruba is expensive, but RIU offered incredible value. Getting a room block here is tough because it sells out so fast. Our agent used their ‘Elite’ status to secure our block a year in advance when other agents said it was impossible. The location on Palm Beach is unbeatable.”
Modern & Chic in Cabo
Riu Palace Baja California
“This resort is stunningly modern. We loved the infinity pools overlooking the Arch. Our agent helped us understand the ‘Adults Only’ policy strictly, which was great for our vibe. They managed the group contract and ensured we got the wedding promo that included a free cocktail hour.”
Mega-Resort Fun
Riu Palace Punta Cana
“We had a massive group with varied budgets. Our agent recommended the RIU complex in Punta Cana because it has 5 hotels in one! We stayed at the Palace, but our budget-conscious friends stayed at the Bambu. The agent handled all the cross-resort logistics effortlessly.”
