Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodríguez Wedding: The Reason Behind Their Private Home Ceremony
Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodríguez chose an unusually intimate setting for their wedding, opting for a private civil ceremony at their home in Cascais, Portugal, on August 11. Instead of a lavish venue filled with celebrities, the couple exchanged vows in their living room with their five children by their side. However, the ceremony was not intended to be their only celebration, as Rodríguez told Vogue that they plan to host a bigger gathering with family and friends later.

For Rodríguez, getting married at home was about choosing a place that felt genuinely personal rather than simply impressive. The living room is where the family shares everyday moments, from meals to time together, making it more meaningful than a grand wedding venue. Although she once dreamed of a traditional fairytale wedding with a castle, carriage and extravagant dress, she now values privacy and intimacy more, especially when much of their lives already involves luxury and public attention.
Family remained at the heart of the ceremony, with Cristiano Jr., Eva Maria, Mateo, Alana and Bella all present. Rodríguez wore a white silk skirt suit, while Ronaldo opted for a light beige suit, with their children dressed in matching neutral tones. She wanted them to look back on the day years later and remember sharing such a personal moment together at home, making the simple setting part of the memory rather than a distraction from it.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodríguez Reveal How Their Children Shaped Their Wedding
Speaking to Vogue after their wedding, Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodríguez explained why their children played such an important role in the ceremony. “The children know that our time belongs to them,” Rodríguez said, stressing how much the couple values family life. She added that both she and Ronaldo grew up in “less structured families” and wanted their children to understand “the value of having nothing and of having everything.” For Rodríguez, the children were the true “protagonists” of the wedding.
The couple also addressed whether they might expand their family in the future. Ronaldo admitted, “I never say never,” while Rodríguez joked that another baby right now would mean “overbooking at home.” She suggested they could consider having another child when their younger children are around 15 or 16, adding that she still finds it difficult to imagine life without small children.
