San Juan is a beautiful and historic city on the water that is home to stunning architecture, seaside forts, and blue cobblestone streets. So romantic! Here are five things you should know if you are planning a wedding in San Juan:

 

#5 It is the easiest place for a destination wedding

Because Puerto Rico is a US territory, it makes a destination wedding so simple! Your wedding party will not need passports, special phone plans or to change currency. None of these things are needed for a San Juan wedding. And there are so many direct flights to and from the U.S.

 

 

 

#4 San Juan is home to stunning architecture

The capital of Puerto Rico, San Juan is a stunning, coastal city founded in 1521 by Spanish colonists. Its rich history can be seen in its stunning architecture, from ancient forts to blue cobblestone streets, to brightly colored doorways, San Juan has it all.

 

 

#3 You can be legally married in San Juan and never step foot in a government office

The marriage requirements are straight forward and can be completed online. Read more here. We are happy to guide you through the simple process.

 

#2 Old San Juan is close to the port of San Juan and the San Juan Airport

If you are arriving in Puerto Rico by plane, Old San Juan is just 20 minutes from the Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport. If you are arriving by boat, you are just walking distance from Old San Juan!

 

 

#1 A San Juan wedding can be cheaper than a traditional wedding

A destination wedding may sound exotic and expensive, but it doesn’t have to be. What could be better than a pared-down guest list and quality time on a beautiful island with people you love?
