Rihanna and A$AP Rocky’s relationship has evolved from a longstanding friendship into one of Hollywood’s most admired partnerships. Their journey began in 2012 during rehearsals for the MTV Video Music Awards, where they first met. Over the years, their bond deepened, and in 2019, they transitioned from friends to a romantic couple. Since then, the couple has become parents to two sons, RZA and Riot, and they recently announced they are expecting a third child. So, could a wedding be on the horizon? Here’s what a source said about the couple planning their future nuptials.

Rihanna and A$AP Rocky want a wedding ceremony in Barbados, according to an insider

Rakim Athelaston Mayers, better known as A$AP Rocky, and Rihanna are one of the music industry’s most discussed couples. While they keep their romance out of the spotlight, they quietly come together to prove that their romance is here to stay. At the 2025 Met Gala, fans couldn’t believe when they saw that Rihanna is pregnant with her and A$AP’s third child.

In March 2025, A$AP Rocky made it known that he intends on staying with Rihanna “’til the wheels fall off. … That’s my wife; that’s my everything,” he told Mystery Fashionist.

So, are Rihanna and A$AP Rocky planning a wedding? In March 2025, a source told Life & Style that the couple had big plans following A$AP’s “not guilty” verdict in his February 2025 felony assault trial.

“Rihanna and Rocky are on cloud nine following the not guilty verdict, and they’re eager to commemorate the happy news with a wedding, sooner rather than later,” the insider alleged. “At the moment, a ceremony in Barbados is the plan. They’ve talked about August, but that would mean things would need to move quickly, so it will likely be towards the end of the year.”

The source added that Rihanna wants a three-day event to make it worth it for her celebrity guests. “Between Rihanna and Rocky, they have a ton of famous pals, so there will definitely be an A-list element, but it’s not going to be some big Hollywood shindig,” the source added. “The majority of guests will be their family and lifelong friends.”

The source added that Rihanna has “no qualms about walking down the aisle with a bump,” so her current pregnancy is not an issue.

Another source says the couple is ‘looking forward to a new chapter’ that includes a wedding

A$AP Rocky was acquitted of two felony assault charges in February 2025 relating to a 2021 incident. A source told The U.S. Sun that Rihanna was terrified that A$AP could head to jail. Now that the case is over, Rihanna and her man are “basking in the relief and looking forward to a new chapter, which will almost certainly include a wedding,” a source told The U.S. Sun.

“It’s an open secret that her family would love to see them tie the knot in Barbados, and it’s a place that’s very special to both of them because they’ve shared some wonderful memories there together,” the source continued. “It’s definitely where Rihanna has always pictured herself getting married, and her family is completely supportive of the relationship.”

Rihanna’s bridal Savage X Fenty lingerie collection sparked rumors

Rihanna’s April 2025 launch of the Savage X Fenty bridal lingerie collection ignited widespread speculation about her relationship with A$AP Rocky. The campaign featured Rihanna modeling a blush pink bustier, sheer thong, thigh-high stockings, and a delicate veil, all while sporting a prominent diamond ring on her left hand. The promotional images, accompanied by captions like “Here comes the bride” and “Meet us at the altar,” further fueled the rumors.

Fans couldn’t stop commenting on the ring seen on Rihanna’s finger in the Instagram ad.

“Am I the only one noticing that enormous rock?!” one fan commented.

“It’s giving soft marriage launch,” another fan wrote.
