Absolutely fantastic location and service you couldn’t fault! The team at the Castore couldn’t have done enough to help make our day run smoothly and were super helpful and accommodating - I can’t thank them enough!

I would highly recommend San Messeo for an unforgettable destination wedding. From our first enquiry, Iuliia was responsive, professional and extremely helpful and when we made our first visit to the venue, we fell in love with. We felt at ease during the whole planning process, and Iuliia helped us find the perfect suppliers for our needs. During the welcome event and the wedding day, we did not have to worry about anything. It truly exceed all of our expectations, and we are so happy we chose have our wedding at this beautiful place.

We looked at many places for our September wedding, but La madonnina stood out. The location, the experience with weddings and the personal attention. After deciding upon the location, we had a great experience with Gaia, who helped us arrange the wedding. We made use of their wedding club and managed to find quality and experienced suppliers for flowers, photography and music. As a foreign couple, we always felt in control and could rely on the experience of La madonnina and Gaia. Our wedding day was excellent; the view was stunning, the staff was attentive, the food was excellent, and the day went perfectly. Both the venue and staff exceeded our expectations!

We went to Vila Alta for our son George’s wedding to Lydia. Whilst we have been to many weddings, this was our first experience of a wedding abroad, and boy it didn’t disappoint. Right from the moment we got there Monica and Rafaella made us so welcome that we felt like family … and it was like being in our own home for the 3 days of the wedding. It is a stunning venue in an amazing location.. we used the caterers and other suppliers recommended by the hosts and were pleased we did, as they were very professional and couldn’t do more to make the wedding special for everyone who attended. In my career I have organised many large events, however in my opinion there was nothing that could have gone better. If you are in any doubt, check out Vila Alta’s instagram… what you see is what you get… and it’s 5 stars!!

I couldn’t have imagined a better wedding venue, it was absolutely spectacular! I had the best day of my life at Pantanelli Di Vendicari. Luciana and her team were phenomenal from the very start of planning right through to the end. No task was too big for them to handle. Luciana went above and beyond, even helping with visa paperwork and handling last-minute room changes. She kept me updated on everything, constantly checking in and ensuring I was in the loop with any changes. Coming from the UK, I didn’t want the hassle of bringing over vendors. Within 10 minutes of asking, Luciana provided a comprehensive list of hair and makeup artists, florists, and other vendor recommendations, making the process so much easier. The venue offers a variety of areas to use during the wedding, all planned meticulously. The food was outstanding. I’ve never had such delicious wedding food. They catered to allergens and intolerances with no issues. The value for money here is exceptional, and the rooms are spacious, comfortable, and well-equipped. I can’t wait to return every year now! If you’re considering Pantanelli Di Vendicari for your wedding, I highly recommend it. Everything was smooth, stress-free, and absolutely stunning. The photos are already looking incredible!

This is the place. Don't look any further! Flaminia and the family were absolutely 10/10!! The food, the wine, the setting and the service from everyone here was perfect. We're from England, and we had a symbolic ceremony. Can't see how it could've gone better. A bit nestled away, but well worth the drive, and very much worth the money!

My husband and I cannot say enough about our experience with Villa Le Vigne. Giulia and Antonella (and every staff member there) went above and beyond to make our wedding events perfect. I contacted Giulia and Antonella a year-ish out from our wedding to see if we could hold a three day event with family and friends at their beautiful location. We wanted to have a Welcome Dinner for guests the night before the wedding, then wedding day festivities including our ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing the night away. The day after the wedding we had a Farewell Lunch and Spritz Bar to help us all relax and recuperate after the celebrations the day before. They were more than happy to share pictures, pricing, example menus and connect us with local vendors that they recommend (for florists, photographer, etc.). We actually had the ability to visit Villa Le Vigne in August 2022 to experience the location first hand and work through any questions we had with them then. This was the best vacation for us and we knew right away that we would be having our wedding at their lovely Tuscany Villa. LOCATION & ROOMS The Villa is located about a 45min drive outside of Florence. This was great for us and our guests who were able to fly into the Florence airport and spend a few days enjoying the city before the wedding. The Villa is a beautiful organic farm that is the perfect picture of Tuscany. They produce their own wine and olive oil, both are delicious and we had to come home with a box of each. Not to mention you an take a lovely, very relaxing stroll through the vineyard with a glass of wine after lunch or dinner. The grounds are the quintessential Italian decor with housing for 50 people max (our wedding had 36), two swimming pools, luscious gardens, a delicious breakfast spread, and served dinner every night either in the gazebo by the lower pool or inside the main house. The rooms are adorable and give that homey Italian feel right out of storybook. The rooms are well kept and very clean. There is AC in each room and ensuite showers. Some rooms are actually larger apartments with kitchens, which was great for some of our guests that had bigger families and babies. FOOD & DRINK Now I could write a novel dedicated to my love of the delicious foods we were served during our stay at the Villa, but I will try to summarize. The chef's here are true magic as every course we had set us into a state of pure bliss. From the charcuterie boards loaded with cheeses, meats and various takes on bruschett, to the lasagna and stuffed pork that I dream of every night-- no joke. Our wedding dinner stole the show thought, with so much food we couldn't believe it! Each guest was served charcuterie etc., tuscan gnudi and pici and crespelle with veggies, Florentine steak and antra in poerchetta. It was a hit with everyone raving how delicious the meal was. We also requested for our wedding cake to be a sort of 'show' with the chef assembling the milleffoglie infant of the guests and us helping. This was so so fun! Not to mention how yummy the millefoglie was!! Now for the drinks. They kept the wine flowing!! Our guests loved the Villa's wine and varieties. We also had a bar during the cocktail hour and reception by Cocktail Glow Tuscany. They had everything we needed to accommodate our guests preferences. Not to mention our bartender made the best aperol spritz ever-- And we are spritz connoisseurs. THE PEOPLE I saved the best part for last, what truly made our wedding so special and our guests feel like they were right at home is the kind, generous, caring staff at Villa Le Vigne. There was nothing too big or small that they were not happy to help us with. They even ordered two shower chair for our family members who need a seat in the shower. These people are the hardest workers I have met, staying late into the night and arriving early the next morning to make sure everything was perfect for our stay. I truly feel that Giulia and Antonella are our family, also the chef and servers, they are genuine and their kindness is overflowing. All of our guests loved them and continue to tell us about how kind and accommodating their experience at the Villa was. We cannot wait to come back to Villa Le Vigne and experience their magic again.

Cannot recommend Casalbosco more! They helped us host a 50 person wedding and every detail was perfect. The space is so beautiful and clean, but inviting and comfortable with incredible views of the vineyards and city. The breakfast was delicious and had everything we wanted. Every member of the staff was exceptionally kind and accommodating to everyone. Every room was updated and it was hard to pick a favorite space as the venue had many unique spaces to celebrate in.

Had the most amazing wedding at Villa Rizzo! The venue was perfect, the staff were excellent and nothing was too much trouble for them. They turned my fairytale into a reality. The wedding planner they recommended Inventosogni and the team at Villa Rizzo listening to what we wanted and made it all perfect. Thank you so much.

The most beautiful venue and the best day we could have ever asked for! We rented all 3 apartments for 30 people for 4 days and nights, having the wedding on the third day. The venue has the best views and 3 gorgeous villas. The staff and hosts are friendly, easy to contact and quick to react to anything you need. I would recommend using the planner Simona who works alongside the venue, especially if you’re from the UK like us as she will arrange the meetings with the vendors and help run the day so smoothly. I would also recommend hiring a vehicle/vehicles between the guests as whilst the villas are walkable, they take 10/15 minutes up the vineyard hills of which older guests may struggle. The venue is also a 5 minute drive from the village of Greve, of which you will need a car to get to as the walk is too far and taxi’s are very limited and very expensive to book. The pools are gorgeous and the villas have a rustic tuscany quality, with a combination of twin and double rooms, some with en suites and shared bathrooms. The venue offers an included wine tasting/tour to guests stopping in the villas of which we used as a great ice breaker for the guests the day before the wedding. If you’re looking for an intimate wedding, in the Tuscan hills, you will struggle to find a venue with better views. An unbelievable experience. We had 52 guests and an infant at the wedding, other guests stopped locally in Greve and travelled to visit on the day. The venue were great arranging transport for them in advance to get home at the end of the evening.
