Let’s talk about the not-so-glamorous part of planning a destination wedding on a tropical island: rain.
Yes, Puerto Rico is breathtaking — with its golden beaches, rainforest backdrops, and warm sunsets — but it’s also… a tropical island. That means pop-up showers, shifting clouds, and the occasional afternoon downpour that wasn’t on your weather app an hour ago.
Here’s the thing: we plan for it. Always.
☁️ Tropical Truth: Rain Happens
We’re not here to scare you — we’re here to prepare you. Even during the dry season (December–April), unexpected rain can still appear. It might last 10 minutes, or it might linger. We’ve seen it all — and we’ve built our planning process around making sure your celebration doesn’t miss a beat.
💡 So What’s the Plan If It Rains?
At MGT Events, every couple gets a custom contingency plan that’s not just functional — it’s beautiful.
Here’s how we handle it:
1. We Pick the Right Venue
Before anything else, we guide you toward venues that:
- Have indoor or covered options available
- Offer seamless transitions from outdoor to indoor spaces
- Look good in any weather
You’d be surprised how many venues we love because they photograph beautifully in both sun and rain.

2. We Monitor Weather Closely
We don’t rely on just one app — we check multiple local forecasts, stay in touch with vendors watching the sky, and keep our communication tight with you during wedding week.
If there’s a shift in weather, we’re already 3 steps ahead.
3. We Make the Call With Confidence
The truth? The hardest part is deciding when to pivot. We handle that for you. Whether it’s moving the ceremony under a tent, reconfiguring seating, or delaying by 15 minutes to wait out the drizzle — we act quickly.
4. We Always Prioritize the Guest Experience
Even if we have to move your ceremony, we make sure guests are greeted with a warm welcome, clear signage, and a beautiful setup. Rain doesn’t ruin the vibe — we just adapt the mood.
Add candles. Add music. Add a little laughter. It becomes part of the story.

☀️ And Sometimes… It Doesn’t Rain at All
We’ve made contingency plans that we never had to use — and that’s okay. Because peace of mind? That’s priceless.
🙌 Our Promise
If it rains, we’re still all in. We’ll adapt. We’ll hustle.
We’ll keep things moving, and we’ll do it with heart — even if we’re drenched and smiling under an umbrella.
This is what we do. And we do it because we care about your day just as much as you do.
✨ Final Word
If you’re planning a destination wedding in Puerto Rico, you don’t need to fear the forecast — you just need a planner who’s ready for it. And we are.
Because love still shines in paradise — even through a little rain.
