  • Yes! We will provide shuttle service to and from the venue on the wedding day. More details to come.

    The afters will be held on-site in an indoor location within the property.

Various events, such as the pre-ceremony, ceremony, cocktails, dinner, and after-party, will take place at different locations within the villa. All sites are within walking distance, and the paths connecting them will showcase the original 15th-century cobblestone. We recommend wearing comfortable shoes and being cautious with heels, as they may get caught in the stone. Each guest will be provided slides for the after-party!
