Facilities and Capacity
Surrounded by vineyards, the 300-acre estate of Borgo Castelvecchi sets the scene for an unforgettable day. Celebrations are held in the great hall, which covers 150 square meters. Couples can also explore the covered terrace, which connects to the park avenue and offers a stunning backdrop for wedding photos. For an added touch of romance, they can watch the sun go down from the picturesque pergola. The estate is also home to an intimate restaurant, which can seat up to 40 people. Divided into smaller spaces by arches, it has an intimate feel that's perfect for catching up with loved ones. Up to 100 guests can stay overnight in the venue in two distinct spaces. The Villa, dating back to the 18th century, has views that overlook the Italian garden and its lush plants. The Borgo, meanwhile, dates back to the Middle Ages and boasts original beamed ceilings, in addition to terracotta floors. It's finished with rustic-style furniture for a touch of hominess.

Reviews for Borgo Castelvecchi
Absolute perfection
The catering is honestly exceptional. Sofia and her team are fantastic and we were served incredible food throughout the wedding weekend. We chose to not use external catering and wanted to support the beautiful on site restaurant and I would highly recommend this. It almost felt like fine dining throughout our wedding breakfast and in 92 guests, not a single person had an incorrect meal or allergy missed. We also had just a wonderful time with the staff and by night 3, after a stunning pizza party, they were dancing into the night with us!
Although I hope to of course not marry again, I truly hope to have a reason in the future to hire and return to CastelVecchi - genuinely a piece of our hearts now lives within those gardens ♥️
All our love , Faye & Freddy

Venue of your dreams
We couldn’t have made a better choice!
Barbara and Davide are exceptionally kind and accommodating, always ready to help and fulfill any request. Sofia and Lorenzo, who lead the catering, are two very young siblings but already incredibly professional from the very first meeting and also very kind. The entire team is extremely attentive, supportive, and dedicated to meeting every need.
On the day of the event, everything was absolutely flawless. We spent a weekend with friends that we will remember forever.
We wholeheartedly recommend this venue to anyone dreaming of an unforgettable wedding!
Our Perfect Italian Wedding in Borgo Castelvecchi
Without a wedding planner, but with the invaluable help of Barbara, Sofia, and Danielle, we were able to bring our dream wedding to life.
And the venue itself? Absolutely perfect. We had a truly immersive experience by staying at the Borgo for two nights along with our family. The moments by the pool and the pizza party the night before the wedding are memories we will never forget.
Everything was simply perfect, and we hope to return in the future to renew our vows in this special place.

Marta & Tom wedding, 27.10.2025
The professionalism, helpfulness, and kindness of the entire staff is something rare these days, but at Castelvecchi it reigns supreme.
It was an unforgettable experience for all of us, one that will remain for a long time among our dearest memories.
Marta and Tom's magical wedding
From day one Barbara and Daniele were really helpful and responsive in helping Marta by giving her a list of known vendors as she has been her own wedding planner.
We have spent some special three days in Castelvecchi where we were all welcomed with great warmth. All the events have been perfectly organised, despite the crazy weather which has caused some last minute change of plans...all has been rearranged in a blink of an eye and seamlessly to make the day run smoothly.
The food was excellent thanks to Sofia and all her team!
Overall the attention to detail was extraordinary,
I strongly recommend Borgo Castelvecchi which has been made even more beautiful by all the incredible people who run it. Thank you to each ad everyone of you!
Grazie! Paola

Dream wedding at Borgo Castelvecchi
We want to thank Barbara, Daniele and Sofia for being incredibly kind, flexible and providing the best service since day 1. During our wedding weekend we needed to make some adjustments; change the room list, add extra people to wine tasting, dinners and change the timing on the wedding day a bit. None of these points were any problem for Barbara, Sofia and Daniele. The staff saw solutions and made the changes without a hesitation. What we appreciate most is how friendly they were every day, and did not stress us as a wedding couple. They were professional and at the same time it felt like we knew them for a long time - we had some nice and funny moments together!
The food and wines were amazing. We travelled in Italy to different cities after the wedding, and we can truly say that the best food we had was at Borgo Castelvecchi! Many of our guests complimented the food we had, and especially the pizza and the dinner at the wedding day is hard to forget!
The location itself is charming, romantic and the pool area is perfect when it’s a bit warm. We loved that the Borgo could accommodate all of our guests! The views were breath taking! All the rooms were nice, clean and there were fans in all rooms.
On the wedding day, the ceremony was located in the garden and the dinner in front of the main area and the party on the terrace. We loved that there were 3 different spots (all next to each other), because it was perfect for each part of the big day.
We truly recommend Borgo Castelvecchi to everyone who is considering having their wedding there! Staff, food, wines, location, facilities and the rooms are perfect. It was better than we could ever imagine! We felt that we were guests on our wedding because the staff have such a good control on everything.
We are planning to visit Borgo Castelvecchi next summer, just to say hi to Barbara, Daniele and Sofia and have a glimpse of the place where we had the best days of our lives.

The most INCREDIBLE wedding weekend
A Dream Wedding Venue – Unforgettable Experience!
A huge thank you also to Sofia, Lorenzo, and the entire team at Ristorante Castelvecchi. From the welcome pizza party to the wedding dinner and light lunch, everything was absolutely delicious. They were so flexible and thoughtful – my husband is vegetarian and they made sure we had plenty of great veggie options throughout the entire stay. They even organized a birthday cake for one of our friends who was celebrating her birthday during the wedding!
If you're dreaming of a magical wedding in Tuscany with amazing food, stunning surroundings, and a team that truly cares – Borgo Castelvecchi is the place. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend it to anyone planning a destination wedding!
