DiMarco has known his wife Amy since the seventh grade, when both attended Rock Lake Middle School in Longwood, Florida. Later, both were students at Lake Brantley High School, and attended their high school prom together. They have three children—two daughters and a son.
He hosts his own annual charity golf tournament at his local course, the Country Club of Heathrow in Heathrow, Florida. The "Norma DiMarco Tee Up For Life Golf Tournament," named in honor of his mother who died from cancer in 2006, raises funds for R.O.C.K (Reaching Out to Cancer Kids), and features celebrities and amateurs. As part of his personal participation in the event, DiMarco plays the 12th hole with every foursome in the tournament.
