Wedding Venues in Italy

This venue was absolutely amazing. The views and atmosphere were breathtaking. Photos don’t do it justice. The staff were extremely professional, caring, and kind. They treated us like family. The quality of service was exceptional. Anything we needed, they prioritized immediately. Last, but not least, our wedding planner was the best. Marta went above and beyond to make sure we (bride & groom) were comfortable, relaxed, and stress-free. Worth every penny. We will cherish the memory of this venue and hotel with us always, as will our guests. They loved it and couldn’t have been more satisfied!!!

We were fortunate enough to have our wedding here at this incredible venue. Our guests were blown away by how incredible it was. Being able to have all of our wedding guests stay in the one venue, enjoy the scenery, swimming pools, wines etc. It was like something out of a fairytale. All our guests said they will struggle to go to a wedding that will top it. Literally can't wait to go back and visit it again in future.

We chose Tenuta delle Ripalte for our wedding because we needed a place that could welcome our friends and relatives offering them everything the sea has to offer, we were in fact guests of the structure for 1 week organizing boat trips, horseback riding and tastings of their wines. The large villas also allowed us to have barbecues and dinners all together. I think that for every anniversary we will return to this paradise. The cuisine and the staff are incredible, their wines and the internal wedding planning service are highly recommended, they have thought of everything!

Our experience at Belagaggio was beyond magical, and words will never fully capture the gratitude we feel. We were fortunate enough to celebrate our wedding here over three unforgettable days with our closest friends and family, and it was nothing short of a dream. From the very beginning, Giorgio guided us with care and expertise through every stage of the planning process. His kindness, patience, and attention to detail gave us such peace of mind and made what could have been a stressful journey feel joyful and effortless. We could not imagine having done this without him. Once on site, we were welcomed with such warmth by Martha, Angela, and Antonella, whose graciousness and generosity made us feel not only cared for but truly at home. Their thoughtfulness touched every part of our stay — from ensuring every little detail was perfect, to making our guests feel cherished. We will always remember the smiles, the kindness, and the way they poured so much heart into making our celebration extraordinary. The beauty of the venue itself speaks for itself — breathtaking views, elegant spaces, and an atmosphere that felt timeless and romantic. But what we will remember most is how loved and supported we felt every moment we were there. Our guests were in awe, not only of the setting but also of the warmth and seamless experience created by the entire team. We are endlessly grateful to everyone at Belagaggio for giving us the most meaningful start to our marriage. This place, and the people who make it so special, will forever hold a piece of our hearts.

Gaia and her team were phenomenal! We planned an international wedding here and felt assisted through the whole process and the communication was amazing. The day of the wedding, everything came together the way I had envisioned it. There was plenty of communication. The food and staff for the event were also amazing! This way probably the best food I had during my entire trip. Aside from this, the views are spectacular. I cannot recommend La Madonnina more.

Words cannot truly capture the magic we experienced at Borgo Castelvecchi, but we’ll try — because this place made our wedding more than we ever could have wished for. We came to Castelvecchi with high hopes and big dreams… but also with a more modest budget than many other venues we’d looked at. The team not only made those dreams come true — they exceeded them in every way. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcome, cared for, and truly special. Everyone — Barbara, Daniele, Sofia, Lorenzo, and the full team, as well as Giovanni, the kind and passionate owner — went above and beyond to make sure we were supported, comfortable, and able to enjoy every moment. They are all so friendly, fully proficient in English, and made communication effortless. It honestly felt like we were in the hands of people who genuinely care about making your day perfect. The venue itself is pure magic — like a scene from a movie. The stunning views over the Chianti hills, the charming stone buildings, the peaceful, elegant garden — it feels as if you and your guests are the only people in the world. The garden for the ceremony is truly one of a kind, a perfect spot to say “I do” surrounded by nature’s purest, most intimate beauty. The food is outstanding, a true taste of Tuscany. From the breakfast, to the aperitivo, pizza dinner and wedding dinner - it was all delicious. Lorenzo and the team even made us a round tiramisu instead of a traditional wedding cake, and it was not only at a good price and very delicious, but it looked absolutely stunning — a perfect match for the surroundings. To quote the bride “Lorenzo’s tiramisu is the best I’ve ever had”. The wine, especially their own rich red, was a huge highlight — smooth, deep, and perfect for toasting to a new marriage. The rooms are all different, yet effortlessly elegant and cosy, filled with charming details and a rich sense of history. The venue also has beautiful “getting ready rooms”, perfect for both the bride and groom — intimate, beautiful spaces filled with character — a wonderful start to a wonderful day. We chose to make our own playlists and ren the speaker at Borgo Castelvecchi instead of hiring a DJ, and it turned out perfectly. The team made sure we had everything we needed, and the result was a wonderful, heartfelt celebration under the Tuscan sky. Borgo Castelvecchi is not just a venue — it’s a place filled with soul, kindness, and pure magic. We honestly felt we were in a world of our own, surrounded by love, happiness, and peace. If you’re looking for a wedding that’s intimate, stunning, stress-free, filled with character, and made possible by people who truly care, this is it. We will forever be grateful we chose Castelvecchi. We can’t wait to return — it feels like home.

tl;dr: The staff at Castelbrando are very experienced and easy to work with. They definitely went above and beyond to make our destination wedding so, so special. Castelbrando was the only venue that my now-husband and I visited - it was suggested by his family who live locally in Italy (we are currently located in California). Then the pandemic hit and we simply didn't have an opportunity to see other venues... That being said, we couldn't be happier with our decision! Location: Location was slightly tricky since Castelbrando isn't located in a major city. There's a train station nearby, but you would still need a ride from there to and from the castle. Everyone was able to arrive and leave here no problem though. Pre-wedding planner: Before finding a planner, we were able to make the arrangements with Brunella in Banquets. We chose on-site locations for the ceremony, aperitifs/cocktail hour, reception, and after party. Most of our contact was via email, which was preferable due to the time difference. She mentioned the hotel has wedding planners to recommend since we didn't have any, but we decided to find one on our own - she (the planner) then took over most of the contact with Brunella and Castelbrando via email and phone. Wedding suite: We booked Alcova del Conte for a few days, which was an amazing suite if it's an option for you. It was so gorgeous and spacious with lots of nooks/private areas, a separate closet (perfect for hiding my wedding gown from the groom), a split bathroom, and more, all of which made is perfect for a bunch of bridesmaids to get ready on the day of the wedding. Ceremony, San Martino church: A deconsecrated Roman Catholic church which was somewhat small, but still beautiful and perfect for our non-religious ceremony. As the bride, I waited in the lounge (near Reception) until it was time, then walked up the central stairway to enter the church. There weren't quite enough seats for everyone inside the church, but there was a side room that we decided not to use, and the unseated guests had plenty of space to stand at the back. Aperitifs / cocktail hour, courtyard: After the ceremony was cocktail hour in the courtyard right outside the church. Lots of beautiful views surrounding the castle. There were plenty of tables and chairs around, and the setup for the musicians, the bar, and all the food was perfect with the food spread out across different tables so there was never a long wait. Reception, Sansovino Theatre: Another beautiful space in Castelbrando! Very medieval castle-looking, which I love. We had

Absolutely magical venue. It exceeded all our expectation, stunning location flawless service and an unforgettable atmosphere. Aleksandar is incredible: nothing is ever too much, he goes above and beyond with such a kindness. The staff were attentive, professional and warm. We couldn’t have dreamed of a better place to celebrate our wedding

Our wedding at this Tuscan villa was nothing short of a dream come true. Nestled in the breathtaking Italian countryside, about 30 mins outside of Florence, sits Tenuta Di Rota. Where the rolling hills stretch endlessly into the horizon, with sunsets so stunning you’ll remember them for the rest of your lives. The villa itself is remarkably beautiful—it perfectly blends rustic charm with refined luxury. From the moment we arrived, we were in awe of its character: classic stone façades, warm terracotta floors, and exposed wooden beams that made every space feel both elegant and inviting. It is a serene sanctuary, offering an authentic Italian escape with panoramic views in every direction. Every detail was thoughtfully curated. The gardens were impeccably manicured, creating the most romantic atmosphere for our wedding celebration and for our guests to relax and explore. Inside, the villa was equally impressive—stocked with beautiful glassware, towels, espresso machines to sip your cappuccino in the morning while taking in the views. It felt like a boutique luxury stay while still maintaining its cozy, countryside charm. What truly made our experience exceptional, though, was Elena, our host. She was beyond accommodating—always responsive, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our stay and our special day absolutely perfect. She went above and beyond for not only us, but for all of our guests, helping with dinner recommendations, securing reservations, and ensuring everyone felt cared for throughout the entire stay. Her warmth and hospitality made such a meaningful difference. This villa is more than just a venue—it’s an experience. It gave us the most magical setting to celebrate one of the most important moments of our lives, and we could not have imagined a more perfect place. If you are looking for a wedding location that is both breathtakingly beautiful and effortlessly welcoming, filled with warmth and charm, this is it.

We had an extraordinary experience visiting this location! We met with the owners, who were incredibly warm and welcoming, and they hosted us as we explored it for our wedding venue. It was our top choice, and honestly, if we hadn’t decided on a church wedding, this would have been the place. For any couple dreaming of a true Italian wedding, this is the location for you. The views are breathtaking, you can even see Vesuvius and the property itself is stunning, with gorgeous lemon trees and plenty of parking. The location is exceptional, and every detail makes it feel like the destination of your dreams. I had the pleasure of working with Iolanda, who was absolutely incredible, and I also tried their food… let’s just say, mamma mia! Truly unforgettable.
