Best Wedding Resorts in Recife, Brazil: All-Inclusive Beach Wedding Guide for 2025

Let’s set the scene.

You’re barefoot on warm, golden sand. Tropical waves gently dance in the background. Palm trees sway above as you walk toward the love of your life. The breeze smells of sea salt and fresh coconuts. And yes, that sunset? It’s the kind people put on postcards.

If this sounds like your kind of wedding day—hello, Recife!

Nestled along Brazil’s stunning northeast coast, Recife isn’t just a beach city. It’s an electric blend of Afro-Brazilian culture, colonial charm, and sun-drenched coastline. And it’s hands-down one of the most underrated (but utterly magical) wedding destinations out there.

Whether you’re dreaming of a barefoot beachfront elopement or a full-on party with everyone you love, here’s a carefully curated guide to the best wedding resorts in Recife.
