HAPPILY EVER AFTER starts upon arrival at Gran Meliá Golf Resort Puerto Rico. Set on Coco Beach outside Río Grande, against a backdrop of El Yunque rainforest, the villas and pavilions rise from an oceanfront paradise of lush tropical gardens, pathways and pools. The multitude of amenities for weddings and honeymoons spans a wide choice of ceremony sites—from beach and gardens to ballroom and chapel—an indulgent spa, health club, casino, tennis courts, neighboring Trump International Golf Club and the largest lagoon pool in Puerto Rico.

Between catered affairs, wedding guests can meet for exquisite pan-Asian, gourmet Puerto Rican or Italian cuisine at three fine-dining restaurants. A casual international cafe, lobby bar, martini bar, swim-up bar and 24-hour room service ensure refreshments on hand at all times.

The choice of first-class accommodations spans six villas and 480 suites in 20 low-rise bungalows. Private butlers attend couples in the Royal Service villas and suites, some with terrace whirlpools or plunge pools. All suites feature rich mahogany furnishings, comfy sofas, breakfast tables in the living areas and oversized marble baths big enough for two.
