Cristiano Ronaldo and Georgina Rodriguez have revealed details of their intimate wedding, choosing to celebrate their marriage at home in Portugal with only their children in attendance.

n

The football superstar and Rodriguez tied the knot on Tuesday, August 11, marking 10 years since they first met at a Gucci store in Madrid.

n

Rather than holding a lavish ceremony, the couple opted for a private celebration at their home in Cascais, Portugal, with their five children as the only guests.

n

Speaking in an interview with Vogue published on Sunday, Rodriguez revealed that her childhood dream of a grand wedding had changed over the years.

n

“When I was a little girl, I dreamt of the biggest castle, the biggest carriage, the longest dress, a crown full of diamonds,” Rodríguez told the fashion publication. “And now I’m saying: no. I want something intimate, with my partner and our children, at home. Because castles, houses, islands, horses, cars: We have all of that within reach every day. But something intimate – that’s more unusual for us.”

Ronaldo and Rodriguez wear Gucci for wedding

n

The couple’s choice of wedding outfits also carried special meaning, as they both wore Gucci designs for the occasion.

n

Rodriguez wore a white skirt suit with satin pumps featuring the fashion house’s signature horsebit, while Ronaldo opted for a custom beige cotton suit paired with matching horsebit loafers.

n

Their decision to wear Gucci was a nod to where their relationship began.

n

Rodriguez was working as a sales assistant at a Gucci store in Madrid in 2016 when Ronaldo visited the boutique. She was not originally scheduled to work that day but had covered a shift for a friend.

n

“That’s destiny,” she said.

n

Gucci artistic director Demna also reflected on the significance of designing their wedding outfits.

n

“It felt incredibly special to dress Georgina and Cristiano for this moment, knowing their love story began in a Gucci store in Madrid,” Demna said. “There is something so romantic about it – a beautiful circle closing, almost like a modern fairy tale.”

Ronaldo and Rodriguez married at home

n

The wedding ceremony took place in the couple’s living room, with their five children present as the only attendees.

n

Ronaldo described the day as a simple family occasion, revealing that he and Rodriguez even exercised together on the morning of the wedding.

n

“It will be a special day, spent in a normal way,” Ronaldo said.

n

Following the ceremony, the family travelled for about an hour to the Shrine of Our Lady of Fatima, where they attended mass to conclude the celebrations.

n

Reflecting on the intimate wedding, Rodriguez said she needed nothing more than the people and things closest to her.

n

“I needed nothing more,” Rodríguez reflected after, “my husband, my children, our home, our faith, and our love.”

n

The wedding came a year after Rodriguez announced their engagement on Instagram, sharing a photo of her large diamond ring. The couple later confirmed their marriage on the platform with a picture of their hands showing their wedding bands.
