Wowwwww

The most astonishing place!!!!!!
Will and I fell in love with this Villa which is so romantic and elegant, we had our civil ceremony in the garden and the dinner inside the big hall of Busts.
We would choose it a hundred times again.

Actually we had already been at Villa La Limonaia for a friend's wedding a few years ago.
I thought that it was the most romantic place I had ever been, that's why I proposed my husband to marry there. He was enthusiastic, his family a bit less because they wanted us to get married in France. We planned a weekend in Taormina where they changed their mind falling in love with sicilian food. Finally we could fulfill our dream and have a wonderful sicilian wedding.

Absolutely suggested

A few years ago we went on a holiday in Sicily, where we were impressed by how beautiful this huge island was.
Last summer we got engaged and we immediately thought about getting married in Sicily. While searching online we discovered this amazing Villa!!
We booked it for the day of our wedding without seeing it in person.
A month later we took a weekend off and travelled to Catania. A local wedding planner helped us to manage everything, she already knew our venue.
On the day of the wedding the sun was shining and it was quite hot, we had our appetiser outside in the garden and than ate in the elegant Hall of Busts.
Our friends made a romantic speech and we had so much fun dancing and celebrating all together!!

Stunning!!

We wanted to get married in October and we were looking for a venue in the south of Italy, Spain or France.
That's how we discovered Sicily and Villa La Limonaia!
After a lot of research we have reached the conclusion that France is a very visited place, Spain doesn't have great food and that Sicily was the perfect place.
The Villa helped us a lot organising the wedding, we even managed to have fabulous fireworks.
We still think about the moment we got off the main staircase with all our guests on the lawn looking at us, the biggest emotion ever!!

Still dreaming of the Villa..

When we started talking about our wedding we thought of a venue closed to where we live.
Having a look on the internet we came across Villa La Limonaia, it all started as a joke.
We realized that getting married abroad was not as expensive as we thought!
Catania Airport is very well connected, the staff of Villa La Limonaia helped us with all the contacts and suggestions we needed. We managed to celebrate in an atmosphere of joy with the people we love under the sicilian sun!!
The Villa is simply astonishing.

We are grateful, we loved the Villa!!

My husband and I were looking for a romantic place, something different from our friends marriages and from places we already knew.
Our wedding planner suggested us to get married in Italy, We started having a look online searching for a place that could fit us.
Since our wedding had to be in december (the day of our anniversary) we preferred the south of Italy because of the good weather.

Talking to friends we discovered that Sicily is famous for the BEST food in Italy, we can now say that it is a deserved fame!!

We found the Villa searching on the web. My husband is in love with the film "The Godfather", he knew that a famous scene of the film had been turned there. He told the wedding planner and she arranged everything for us in a very sicilian style.

It was the best choice ever..our friends keep talking about our wedding :) :)

Thank you to our wedding planner and to the whole staff of Villa La Limonaia, they were so kind and helpful!
