While planning my wedding in Tuscany, I read a million reviews before landing on Agriturismo Poggianto. Often, the reviews would say, that the guests arrived as strangers and left as family. I thought it to be an over-embellished description for a reviews sake. Now that I have experienced it, I understand. We did in fact, arrive as strangers and left with a week of fond memories and love in our hearts for our hosts, Davide and Marina.
I was traveling from the US and have never been to Italy and pretty nervous about planning a wedding from so far away. Our stay and wedding was nothing short of magical. The view from the top of the hill on which the villa sits is breathtaking and kind attention from Marina and Davide made us feel right at home. The villas were clean and well equipped. The poll was also clean and refreshing in the hot summer sun. We were a little worried it would be too warm in the villa in August without air conditioners, but the thick stone walls kept it cool and the breeze every evening was perfect. Marina and Davide introduced us to a wedding planner who helped us plan the details of the wedding and made sure our guests were well taken care of. I highly suggest the Tagliatelle with Wild Boar sauce if you are also considering a wedding here.
We opted for the arrival dinner. This was a excellent decision. We were tired from a long nearly 20 hours of travel and on our arrival, Davide had cold water, excellent local wine, and a meat and cheese spread. The food and drink was replenished again and again as our guests arrived. We sat under the shaded restaurant patio overlooking a breathtaking vista of the ancient town across the valley. Marina and Davide welcomed us like old friends and welcomed us in.
We choose this location for a few reasons. The view (did not disappoint), owner experience with weddings, reviews, opportunity for community, and value. We had a limited budget but didn’t want to sacrifice our dream. Not only was the week spent at the villa and touring the region incredible, our wedding day was nothing short of magical.
Marina and Davide were warm, attentive, and flexible. The truly wanted to do anything in their power to make our experience everything we dreamed it to be starting with several video chats for initial planning. They connected me with their wedding planner, Patricia, who easily and patiently attended to every detail and stayed in constant communication.
The accommodations were clean and spacious. The beds were comfortable. There were plenty of kitchen items to cook for yourself and nearby grocery for supplies. The pool was clean and refreshing in the hot summer sun. We were a little worried it would be too warm in the villa in August without air conditioners, but the thick stone walls kept it cool and the breeze every evening was perfect. Most nights, we opted for dinner at the villa. It was convenient and delicious. The tiramisu was the best we have ever had (and we’ve had a lot!). We left with Davide’s recipe.
We had a great experience and can’t wait to get back. We hope to get back to Italy again and stay again at Agriturismo Poggianto.

We were at DIMORE DI POGGIANTO for our marriage, we were warmly welcomed and the team there carried out a brilliant job, meeting all our expections and leaving our 40 people group very satisfied. We really could not have asked for more, the place is wonderful with an unforgettable view from the panoramic lodge, the food is excellent and the apartments large and comfortable.
We recommend this place absolutely and we promised we’d be back for one of our first anniversary.

For our 25th anniversary, we invited 30 friends/family for a relaxed informal celebration weekend. It was over and above expectations; the location, the facilities (restaurant, apartments, pool etc.), the hospitality and support from Marina, Davide and their great team, and not least the fantastic simple/homemade food and drinks (apero, drinks by the pool, barbecue, dinner, prosecco, wines, grappa etc.).
