Il Palazzo Agriturismo & Winery

My fiancé and I could not have asked for a better wedding venue!!! This small family owned winery along with the wonderful owners immediately caught our attention. The grounds are breathtaking, quaint, quiet, and beautiful. For about 1.5y we worked with Il Palazzo from the US to plan our wedding. We could not be more thankful to Laura, the owner, and the team for making the experience so pleasurable and easy. Laura and Valia worked tirelessly to plan and set up our wedding, meet our every need, and answer any and all questions. They are very knowledgeable, flexible, easygoing, professional, and kind. What also stands out was their constant prompt response time; I have worked with many Italian vendors and prompt response is rarely the case. I strongly encourage any and all couples to explore this venue for their wedding or even for a holiday stay. We also stayed at the venue twice and never had an experience short of awesome. The food is magnificent and the staff is great as well!

We had the most incredible experience with IL Palazzo from start to finish. Planning a destination wedding can feel overwhelming, but our entire experience was seamless, and we truly could not have imagined celebrating our wedding anywhere else. We would recommend IL Palazzo to anyone dreaming of a wedding in Italy!

Located in the heart of Tuscany, IL Palazzo is truly something out of a fairytale. There is a feeling you get when you arrive that is hard to put into words. The grounds are absolutely breathtaking, and the entire property has such a special, authentic Italian charm while still providing everything you need for a comfortable and unforgettable stay.

We actually visited IL Palazzo before deciding on our venue because we wanted to make sure it was the right fit for us, the second we arrived, we knew it was. The property has 16 beautifully decorated apartments that can accommodate approximately 35 guests. Each apartment has its own kitchen area and air conditioning, and every room was incredibly clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully decorated.

The property also has a beautiful pool with a pool bar, which was such a fun addition for our guests. We also rented the hot tub for an additional cost, and it was absolutely worth it! It gave everyone another opportunity to relax and enjoy the property together.

One of our favorite things about IL Palazzo was the variety of experiences available for our guests. They offer activities such as wine tours, truffle hunting, cooking classes, and more, which made having a destination wedding feel like a true vacation for everyone who traveled so far to celebrate with us. There was always something for our guests to do and experience.

The Osteria was another huge plus. They offer light lunches and dinners, and the breakfast spread each morning was incredible. It was so nice waking up and having breakfast available right on the property before starting the day.

Wedding Planning & Coordination
We decided to use Laura and Valia for our wedding planning and coordination, and we can confidently say that it was 100% worth the additional cost.

They were absolutely incredible from beginning to end. I shared my vision with them, and they brought it to life even better than I could have imagined. They were extremely communicative, organized, patient, and helpful throughout the entire planning process.

Planning a wedding from another country comes with a lot of unknowns, so having a team we trusted made such a difference. They were able to recommend vendors they had worked with previously, which gave us so much peace of mind. Knowing that IL Palazzo had experience with the vendors they recommended made the entire process feel much less stressful.

Welcome/Pizza Party
For our first night, we had a pizza party in the Borgo, and it was absolutely incredible. IL Palazzo provided a speaker and microphones, which allowed us to have music and speeches throughout the evening.

And the pizza! WOW. Our guests were raving about it and said it was some of the best pizza they had ever had! There was something so special about knowing we were eating incredible, authentic Italian pizza right at the place where we were celebrating our wedding.

It was the perfect way to welcome everyone to Italy and kick off our wedding celebration.

Wedding Day
Our wedding ceremony was absolutely flawless. Every single detail was set up beautifully, and everything we had discussed beforehand was executed perfectly. It was such a relief to arrive on our wedding day and know that everything was taken care of.

From the setup and décor to the timing and coordination, every detail was noticed. We felt completely present and able to enjoy our wedding day instead of worrying about what was happening behind the scenes.

Looking back, choosing IL Palazzo was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. It wasn’t just a venue it became the setting for an entire experience that our family and friends will remember forever.

If you are considering a destination wedding in Tuscany, we cannot recommend IL Palazzo enough. The property, the accommodations, the food, the experiences, and especially the incredible team made our wedding everything we dreamed it would be and more.

We are so grateful to IL Palazzo, Laura, Valia, and everyone who helped make our wedding weekend so incredibly special. We truly wish we could do it all over again

Where to begin... We still get emotional thinking about Il Palazzo and the wonderful people who made our wedding so special. We got married there in July with our closest friends and family and we booked out the entire venue for the 3 night stay. It was like being on our own little love bubble where nothing else existed but all of us and happiness. Laura and Valya were so kind and patient with us in the preparations, and gave us so much guidance. They were always calm, sorting us through any issue we had. During our stay they gave us all the support we wanted but they also gave us all space to be together and enjoy the event stress-free. It was the most perfect of times, and there were many tears when we left. The only way that I can describe it is that they made us feel like we were part of their family and the only wedding that they ever had or would have there. It was that special. As for the venue itself - oh my gosh - the peace, and beauty of it was mind blowing. It was pure, simple luxury. We could breathe and switch off from everything surrounded by such beauty. Everything about it was a delight. And the food - wow. We were in food heaven from breakfast to dinner and beyond. If we could marry there again every year, we would! It's so wonderful! Thank you Laura, Valya, and your fantastic team.xo

We had the most wonderful wedding at Il Palazzo in August and couldn’t recommend it more highly.

Our wedding planner Laura and her team, made our special day run incredibly smoothly — They were organised, thoughtful, and always one step ahead. It truly took so much stress off our shoulders.

We booked out the entire borgo for our family for the weekend, which created the perfect private and relaxed atmosphere. For the wedding day itself we had the ceremony at one of the gardens at the borgo and then headed down to the separate Winery for dinner and party, it was absolutely beautiful. The views across the Tuscan hills from the venue are breathtaking.

The staff were warm, attentive, and genuinely lovely throughout the weekend. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and they made our whole family feel so welcome and well looked after. Dinner and service were outstanding, and the wine was simply incredible. Everything felt special, seamless, and full of Tuscan charm.

If you’re looking for a stunning venue with exceptional service, caring staff, and views that take your breath away, Il Palazzo is the place.

We can't wait to come back and visit again in the future.

If you’re looking for a place that offers the best of Tuscany and where you’ll feel like home, Il Palazzo is for you.

We first came to Il Palazzo for a wine tasting in 2018, and after a few glasses of wine and a homecooked dinner, we quickly became family. Since then, we’ve celebrated New Year’s, enjoyed a perfect pool getaway for multiple summers, and even hosted 70 international guests for our three-day wedding back in 2024. Each visit feels like coming home to the most enchanted place!

We did not set out to have a destination wedding, but after watching a few sunsets on the property and feeling how genuinely excited all the staff were to celebrate our marriage, we knew it was the right choice. We were nervous coordinating from the US- but Laura exceeded all our expectations. She recommended our excellent bar and catering team (Lorenzo and Chef Goga at Osteria Grande), truly artistic floral design, hair and makeup, a dance floor, a gelato cart with our favorite Sunflower gelato, shuttle transportation, and more! We had a traditional Vietnamese ceremony and blessing inside the beautiful Santa Cecilia church which was built in 1000 CE and just a short walk from the property. Laura was quick to respond, always brought a positive attitude, and managed to find solutions for our wildest ideas.

Our guests who stayed on site with us said they felt they were experiencing “true Tuscany” after touring many other nearby places. The natural beauty of the property with olive groves, vineyards, flowers, vegetable gardens and sunset views required little additional decoration. We wanted a venue with separate locations for each event. What struck us immediately was that Il Palazzo was the perfect place for our wedding without feeling like a wedding venue.

We indulged in the amazing Il Palazzo wine, enjoyed a Pizza Party welcome dinner, and enjoyed a leisurely send-off brunch by the pool (which honestly turned into another full day of celebration!). We gifted guests Il Palazzo olive oil and we still get calls and pictures anytime someone uses it in their kitchen. Our guests enjoyed adventuring in Arezzo and avoiding the crowds of other Tuscan towns.
They loved their experience so much that many are planning to return to Il Palazzo to celebrate their own special events—we’ve received several requests to have an anniversary reunion party soon! We feel lucky to get to return to such a special and meaningful place, and that each time we return, we’re welcomed with the warmth and care of family. Whether you’re staying for just one night, or you’re planning one of the most important days of your life, choose Il Palazzo to be a part of your story, I promise, you won’t regret it. Salute!

We had our wedding at Il Palazzo and it really was a truly magical experience. Laura, Valia and all of the other staff ensured that our wedding was everything we wanted and more. We booked exclusive use of all rooms so we had the luxury of being able to use all facilities with only friends and family. Everyone had such an incredible time, from wine tasting and using the pool, to dinner in the Osteria and the wedding itself. Everyone agrees that Il Palazzo is not only a beautiful place but that the team truly want you to have a truly wonderful day. It was such a special day and one will be remembered by all as a wonderful weekend.

Il Palazzo turned out to be a hidden gem within the rolling hills of Tuscany. My (then) fiance and I went to many properties in the Tuscan region to scope out potential wedding venues. We easily settled into an agreement on Il Palazzo.

1. The people: it is a family run estate that really foster the culture of family. Laura was an amazing partner to all of our visits (3) leading up to the wedding and all of our wedding festivities (spanning 4 days, across countries, over the course of 18 months). She is responsive, thoughtful, genuine, and great at her job. The owner, his wife, and son were all wonderful and hospitable. We might not have spoken the same language, but the care was universally understood.
2. The staff: from the head chef to the waiters to the managers and the owners, every single person in the staff is well hearted and does their best. They are sincere in their hospitality and try to make your stay and event special. Even going beyond their comfort zones - Nicolai hand crafted our cake as as how for our wedding.
3. The venue: The photos don't do it justice. It's a mini community built into the estate with winding rows of olive trees, grape trees, and a little town of homes. We rented the full space and it truly felt like a village of our people. As you walk around from garden to pool to breakfast, you run into friends and family. Can pop down on chairs and tables to share time over coffee.

I can't wait to plan a future event here. Weather that be vow renewals, a vacation, a friend's escape, or another reason I can think up of to visit this place - i am excited and know that I am truly in great hands.

We had our wedding at Il Palazzo in mid September and it was an unforgettable experience. Laura and the whole staff made us feel like family throughout the whole planning process and during the 4 day wedding weekend. We rented all the apartments on site and made use of all the different areas and experiences Il Palazzo has to offer. The food, wine, venue and above all the people at Il Palazzo made for a dream weekend that I can't recommend highly enough!

Our wedding at Il Palazzo in Arezzo was truly a dream come true. From the moment we first spoke with Laura, over video chat, we felt a sense of trust and excitement. Planning a wedding from abroad without ever seeing the venue in person could have been stressful, but Laura made it effortless. She took care of every detail, offered wonderful recommendations, and ensured everything flowed perfectly on the day. The venue itself is breathtaking, but what made it even more special was Laura’s dedication, kindness, and eye for detail. Our guests were in awe, and we will cherish the memories forever. We cannot thank Laura and her team enough for making our wedding more magical than we could have ever imagined.

We recently celebrated our wedding at this stunning venue in the heart of Tuscany, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. The surroundings are absolutely breathtaking—rolling hills, vineyards, and that signature Tuscan charm that made the entire weekend feel like a dream. In addition to a stunning set of surroundings, the venue itself is absolutely superb with its multitude of flowers and colorful bushes.

Laura, our host, was incredibly accommodating and helpful throughout the entire planning process and during the event itself. Her warm and attentive approach made us and our guests feel truly welcome and cared for. She really helped us through the planning process and provided a wide range of suppliers and vendors for the different services - a major convinience when trying to plan your wedding from abroad.

The staff at Il Palazzo was also very attentive and serviceminded, and for the most part spoke good english.

The food was simply delicious—authentic, fresh, and beautifully presented. Paired with the venue’s excellent wine, it created a dining experience we’ll never forget.

One of the highlights was having all our guests stay on site for the weekend. The accommodations are very comfortable and beautifully decorated, and the layout of the property allowed everyone to relax, mingle, and enjoy each other’s company in a natural and joyful way. The pool area is especially popular with the kids (also the adult kids).

We wholeheartedly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a magical wedding experience in Tuscany. It exceeded our expectations in every way.
