Wedding of Our Dreams
Where do I even begin. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect thanks so much to Castello Bevilacqua and it's staff. Being from the US, I picked this venue sight unseen which was a little nerve-wracking. My contact, Andrea, was absolutely incredible throughout the entire process. Even dealing with a six hour time difference, he was so responsive to all of my questions and concerns, I don't remember ever having to wait more than 24 hours for a reply and even that seems too long. When we finally got to Castello Bevilacqua, he worked tirelessly to make sure our day went perfectly. From taking our decorations and setting them up, to bringing our dresses/tuxes to the laundry to get steamed, and just being there throughout the day for whatever we needed. International brides, this is a great venue to book. Also, the food during our two day stay (including our wedding food) was incredible and the head chef went above and beyond to make sure everyone was enjoying themselves. Everyone has told me the scallop risotto was the best meal they had during their trip to Italy! Thank you, thank you, thank you to all the staff at Castello Bevilacqua for making our wedding a fairytale!

Too bad you only get married once …
… because we would choose Castello Bevilacqua all over again, every single time!
Andrea is extremely professional and accommodating. He offered flexibility in every situation. Knowing that we could trust him every step of the way was such an important thing for us when we first started planning our wedding. Organizing a wedding is stressful—it certainly was for us. Andrea kept a cool head through it all and was always responsive, regardless of the time of day. We were most impressed by how calmly, organized, and smoothly he managed everything on the ground on the wedding day. We truly couldn’t have found a better match.
Regarding the venue itself, we can’t stress enough that it is even more magnificent in real life than the pictures suggest. Everything is simply perfect and fairytale-like. We were stunned by how beautifully everything was arranged on the day.
The best thing about the castle is that it allows you to adapt to any weather conditions. Our wedding took place in the middle of a heatwave. We could cleverly use the interiors of the castle for welcome drinks, the comforting shade of the trees outside for the ceremony, and then the courtyard for the aperitivo, before moving to the upper garden for dinner once the heat of the day had dissipated.
The castle itself is located approximately 45–50 minutes by car or train from Verona (a little longer from Venice) and lies just a three-minute walk from the train station.
The food was excellent and of high quality throughout. We had the opportunity to taste and curate our personal menu beforehand. Everything was locally sourced, fresh, and delicious. The service was excellent, to the point where even our non-English- or non-Italian-speaking guests felt that none of their wishes went unfulfilled. Our favorite course was the traditional millefoglie wedding cake with wild berries—an absolute highlight for our guests as well.
We will forever look back on our big day with immense happiness, knowing that it simply wouldn’t have been the same anywhere else.

Phenomenal!
A whole hearted recommendation. We decided we wanted to have a destination wedding and contacted countless venues. Immediately following our conversation with Andrea we both knew we wanted to have our wedding here. Beyond the external beauty of castello bevilacqua, there is an inner warmth beyond what you can imagine. There is clearly so much love in this castello, from Andrea and his family, but also every member of the staff. Our wedding was managed flawlessly - it was so beautiful, Andrea and the team at the castello treated us like we were family; Andrea’s attention to detail made the day seamless for us. We are constantly reminiscing about how beautiful our wedding was and how absolutely delighted we are about our choice of having it at castello bevilacqua. Our guests were thrilled with the experience, many having gone to destination weddings before and all agreeing this experience was exceptional smooth and beautiful. We would not change a single detail. This is an event that will be forever cherished in memories, and we are so grateful we found castello bevilacqua. Honestly, we are already hoping to host a 10 year anniversary reception there. This location has our wholehearted recommendation!

Our dream wedding experience 🤍🤍
We got married at Castello Bevilacqua last week, and words truly cannot describe how magical our experience was! From the very start, Andrea our contact and coordinator, was attentive, responsive and kind. We travelled to the venue from the US six months before the wedding, where we had a tour and private tasting. I am thrilled to say that our experience exceeded our expectations in every way.
For the night before, we hosted a private wine tasting in the gardens followed by dinner and dancing in the courtyard. I was nervous to have all of our wedding guests on site for both days, because I was afraid that it would take away from the magic of the wedding day. Andrea ensured that the guests entered the venue in such a way that would leave surprises for the next day, and it could not have been more of a perfect start to the wedding festivities.
On the day of the wedding, the experience was organized, and the staff was unbelievably talented. We felt catered to and cared for from arrival to finish. The venue is stunning, but the people who work here are really what set this venue apart. The food provided by the venue was fantastic, and the courses kept coming and coming. The wine and drinks were also fantastic. Being in the castle gardens felt like a fairytale, and pictures truly do not do justice to the beauty of this venue.
I could not have imagined a more perfect venue for our big day. We will certainly be back to celebrate anniversaries in the future. Thank you Andrea and Castello Bevilacqua for the most magical day of my life!

The Italian Castle Wedding You’ve Always Dreamed Of…
Castello Bevilacqua wasn’t just a venue - it was a fairytale. I had been searching for the perfect wedding venue for years (yes, years), and after submitting my information on weddingwire.com, several venues reached out. But Castello Bevilacqua stood out immediately.
It wasn’t just the beauty of the castle that captured my attention - it was the exceptional level of service from Andrea. From the very beginning, he was transparent, clear, and genuinely authentic. His straightforward approach gave me a sense of trust and ease, which is invaluable when planning a destination wedding. He worked around my budget to make sure I had the wedding of my dreams. Throughout the entire process, he remained consistent, responsive, and attentive to every question and concern I had. This reassured me time and time again that I had made the right choice.
On the wedding day, Andrea and everyone at the castle went above and beyond in ways I hadn’t even thought of. He handled details I had completely overlooked -napkin colors, favor placements, and so much more - ensuring everything was cohesive, elegant, and exactly as I had envisioned. That level of care is truly the best thing any bride and groom could ask for.
One of the most incredible aspects of this venue is the versatility it offers. You have multiple stunning locations throughout the castle to host your ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception (you can use a different location for each). Even more reassuring was having planned indoor options in case of bad weather. Andrea thoughtfully walked me through both indoor and outdoor setups months in advance, so I could clearly envision how everything would look no matter the weather.
As for the wedding day? There are truly no words to describe how magical it felt - for me, my husband, and our guests. To this day, people continue to tell us how extraordinary the castle looks in our photographs. If you’re looking for a venue that is affordable and delivers a stress-free experience and timeless, classic imagery, this is it!!! Whether captured on an iPhone or by a professional photographer, every photo taken here is simply stunning.
The castle is absolutely breathtaking! It transports you to another era, like stepping into a storybook, exactly how a castle wedding should feel. Since the day we arrived, everyone at the castle was really nice and welcoming. I’ve stayed in many beautiful places but this one stands apart in every way. It gave our guests a once-in-a-lifetime experience - one they are still talking about.
Castello Bevilacqua is more than a venue; it’s a feeling, a memory, and a dream realized. I wouldn’t trade it for anything or any other venue. I hope you choose this castle and enjoy the magic. Highly recommend!!!

The Wedding of Our Dream!
Our wedding at Castello Bevilacqua was something out of a fairytale. From the very beginning, Andrea was responsive and helpful in helping us navigate planning a destination wedding. He was flexible with our requests and also helped us find other wonderful vendors in the area! The food was divine, some of our guests even said it was the best food they had their entire trip to Italy. We also had them do the florals for the event, and they were gorgeous. Our wedding was perfect and Andrea and the entire staff were warm and kind to us and our guests. We would not have changed a thing! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
