The cathedral in the islandâs capital Funchal is booked for a big wedding next Saturday, according to local reports.
Appropriately, weddings there kick off at 3pm.
Portugal star Ronaldo, 41 â who grew up in Funchal â and model Georgina, 32, are said to have reserved the nearby five-star Savoy Palace hotel for the reception.
A source said: âGuests at the hotel have been told two floors will be out of use on Friday and Saturday, as well as several bar areas.â
Ex-Manchester United forward Ronaldo now plays in Saudi Arabia.
He met Georgina, who is Spanish-Argentinian, in 2016 and proposed to her last August.
Last week the couple were snapped wearing diamond rings as they boarded a yacht in Majorca.
Ronaldo said previously that he and Georgina planned to marry after the World Cup, from which Portugal were ousted by eventual winners Spain last month.
