La Posta Vecchia
Ladispoli
A striking Roman villa and former mansion of Jean Paul Getty, La Posta Vecchia blends history and natural beauty. Overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea and Odescalchi Castle, it is an unforgettable venue for weddings, celebrations, and private occasions. Rich in history, the property has been home to Roman emperors, the noble Orsini family, and Jean Paul Getty, who filled it with Italian art treasures. Today guests are welcomed with 17th-century tapestries, marble busts of Roman emperors, and a rare antiquarian map by Giovanni Battista Piranesi.
Borgo Vaggi
Vaggi
Borgo Vaggi offers something truly special—an authentic Tuscan village experience where history, hospitality, and heartfelt service come together. Managed by Italian hosts Cristina and Dario since 2016, this historical gem sits in the peaceful countryside of northern Tuscany, between the marble mountains of Carrara and the Tuscan coast. With 12 B&B accommodations, an on-site restaurant called 'Un'Ottima Annata,' and a private consecrated chapel, Borgo Vaggi welcomes intimate celebrations where couples and their closest loved ones can immerse themselves in genuine Italian warmth. The 5,000-square-meter garden, abundant olive trees, and innovative heated wooden gazebo create a truly romantic and rustic atmosphere—all at remarkably accessible pricing that makes luxury destination weddings attainable.
Giardini del Fuenti
Vietri sul Mare
Suspended between sky and sea on the Amalfi Coast, Giardini del Fuenti offers a rare combination: multiple distinct celebration spaces, each with its own character and breathtaking coastal views. From the fragrant Limoneto lemon grove to the dramatic Terrazza delle Rose overlooking the Gulf of Salerno, from the exclusive Riva del Fuenti beach club to the sophisticated Caveau del Fuenti carved into coastal rock—this venue adapts to your vision rather than constraining it. With capacity for up to 350 guests across its various spaces and the option for complete exclusive use, Giardini del Fuenti delivers the classic Amalfi Coast wedding dream: crystalline Mediterranean waters as your backdrop, authentic Italian gardens framing your ceremony, and flexible spaces that flow seamlessly from daylight vows to candlelit dinner to starlit dancing.
Borgo Laticastelli
Rapolano Terme
In the heart of Tuscany near Siena, Borgo Laticastelli rises as an exclusive medieval hamlet where centuries-old stone walls capture sunrise and sunset in equal measure. True to its name—'the castle where light comes from all sides'—this historic borgo combines mystical atmosphere with ample space for modern celebrations. With 32 air-conditioned rooms accommodating up to 80 overnight guests, multiple halls, panoramic terraces, manicured gardens, and a swimming pool, your wedding unfolds across a private village that's yours alone. The in-house restaurant and experienced F&B team ensure flawless catering, while the flexibility of both outdoor and covered spaces means your celebration proceeds beautifully regardless of weather.
Le Sirenuse
Positano
There's a moment when you first step onto Le Sirenuse's sea-facing terrace—past the lemon trees and bougainvillea, beyond the famous pool—when Positano reveals itself in full glory below and the Mediterranean stretches to infinity. That view has captivated guests since 1951, when the aristocratic Sersale family opened their summer villa as a hotel and accidentally created an icon. Today, Le Sirenuse remains family-run and feels exactly like what it is: an impossibly elegant private home that happens to welcome the world's most discerning travelers. The hand-painted tiles tell stories, the antiques have provenance, the staff remember your name, and dinner at Michelin-starred La Sponda unfolds by the light of four hundred candles flickering against frescoed walls. For weddings, this means exchanging vows on terraces where the sunset turns the sea to gold, dancing in spaces that blend classic Italian grandeur with effortless sophistication, and giving your guests an experience they'll recount for decades.
Villa Aurelia
Rome
Climb Janiculum Hill—one of Rome's famous seven—until the city spreads below and you discover Villa Aurelia perched at the summit like a Baroque jewel someone placed precisely where views reach perfection. Commissioned in 1650 by Cardinal Girolamo Farnese, this palazzo captures everything a prince of the church could want: elevation above summer heat, gardens for contemplation, salons for entertaining, and those views—St. Peter's dome so close you understand the cardinal's power, all of Rome beyond confirming it. Today, Villa Aurelia operates under the stewardship of the American Academy in Rome, hosting cultural events and celebrations that honor the villa's heritage while opening it to those whose important moments deserve genuine Baroque grandeur. The architecture tells the cardinal's story: the Piano Nobile with its interconnected salons (Music Room, Gallery, Dining Room) flowing naturally for entertaining, the Grand Hall where 200 guests dine beneath frescoed ceilings, terraces positioned to frame different Roman perspectives, and those three gardens—the formal Italian Garden with geometric precision, the Lemon Garden fragrant with citrus, the Secret Garden hidden behind walls for intimate ceremonies. With capacity ranging from sixty to 230 depending on configuration, no overnight accommodations (this is a residence and cultural institution, not hotel), and exclusive use ensuring privacy, Villa Aurelia delivers the Roman cardinal's villa experience at its most authentic. The position on Janiculum means you're technically in Trastevere—ten minutes from the Vatican, fifteen from Piazza Navona—yet elevated enough that Rome feels displayed specifically for your celebration rather than simply surrounding it.
Castello di Tor Crescenza
Rome
Most couples planning Roman weddings face a choice: ancient ruins that can't be touched, or modern venues lacking soul. Castello di Tor Crescenza offers a third option—a genuine medieval castle just fifteen minutes from the Spanish Steps, surrounded by private parkland, still inhabited by the aristocratic family who've owned it since the 1400s, and available for exclusive celebrations that honor both its history and your vision. The castle rises from its grounds with medieval authority—towers built atop an 11th-century watchtower, grand halls added as the Crescenzi family's power grew, frescoes commissioned when Renaissance art flourished, and those courtyards and terraces that seem designed specifically for gathering and celebration. Today, the castle operates as Rome's premier event venue while remaining a protected historic monument and private residence. The scale accommodates both intimate gatherings and substantial celebrations: the Fireplace Room for sixty seated in frescoed intimacy, grand banquet halls for 250 beneath vaulted ceilings, the Winter Garden's glass roof sheltering 300 regardless of weather, courtyards for outdoor ceremonies, a private chapel for religious vows, and parkland exploration between events. With just six rooms for overnight guests (the castle isn't a hotel but a residence that welcomes celebrations), most guests stay in Rome's extraordinary hotels and gather at Tor Crescenza for one unforgettable day. The convenience of being within the city yet feeling entirely removed—medieval walls blocking traffic sounds, parkland creating buffer from urban energy—makes this uniquely Roman: history and convenience, grandeur and accessibility, all within twenty minutes of the Colosseum.
La Pescaia Resort
Sticciano Scalo
La Pescaia Resort is an enchanting 19th-century estate nestled in the heart of Maremma, Tuscany, surrounded by vast olive groves and centuries-old pines. This historic country estate offers authentic rural charm with sophisticated comforts, featuring a historic villa, rustic farm buildings, and a swimming pool carved from ancient basins. Managed by a passionate family team, the estate excels in tailored events with local farm-to-table menus, enchanting views, and an intimate chapel for ceremonies. Guests enjoy elegant rooms, organic cuisine, and picturesque gardens that create the perfect backdrop for memorable destination weddings and exclusive events.
Villa Miani
Rome
There's a moment during every Villa Miani celebration when guests step onto the panoramic terrace and realize they're seeing all of Rome from above—St. Peter's dome so close you could reach out and touch it, the Tiber snaking through ancient quarters, landmarks emerging from terracotta rooftops like pieces of history refusing to be buried. Villa Miani sits atop Monte Mario, Rome's highest hill, commanding views no other venue can match. Built in 1837 for the aristocratic Counts Miani as their neoclassical retreat above the city's heat and crowds, the villa has evolved into Rome's premier large-scale event venue while maintaining that sense of noble grandeur. The numbers tell part of the story: over 3,000 square meters of event space, the Salone delle Feste accommodating 550 for seated dinners, multiple connected halls for simultaneous events, terraces hosting 500 for alfresco celebrations, capacity expanding to 1,800 with garden tents when occasions demand true scale. But statistics don't capture walking through marble halls where frescoes and chandeliers create natural elegance, or discovering the villa sits within private parkland ensuring complete seclusion despite being fifteen minutes from the Vatican, or that particular Roman sunset when the entire city glows golden and your celebration unfolds with the Eternal City itself providing the backdrop. With just a bridal suite for overnight stays (this is an event venue, not hotel), exclusive use ensuring privacy, Michelin-rated catering partners, and service refined across nearly two centuries of hosting Rome's most important gatherings, Villa Miani delivers the Roman wedding at its most panoramic and grand.
Castello Dal Pozzo
Oleggio Castello
Castello Dal Pozzo is a historic estate of medieval origin that now operates as a five-star resort and wedding venue in the hills above Lake Maggiore, near the village of Oleggio Castello in Piedmont. The property comprises the neo-Gothic castle, the adjacent 19th-century Palazzo and converted stables, all surrounded by a 24-hectare park with mature trees, rare botanical species and panoramic Lake Maggiore viewpoints. Guest accommodation is distributed across these buildings in rooms and suites that combine period architectural details with contemporary comforts including high-speed Wi-Fi and smart TVs. The resort features an outdoor infinity pool open seasonally from May to September, poolside bar service, gourmet dining, and comprehensive event services. Multiple indoor halls and outdoor terraces accommodate weddings, with capacities up to 250 people in single spaces. The estate's historic chapel, grand ballrooms, and lakeside terraces create unforgettable settings for celebrations ranging from intimate gatherings to grand receptions.
