Villa Gallo Nero

Your charming Tuscany villa wedding in the unspoiled wine district of the Chiantishire.

Situated atop a hill, you can reach Villa Gallo Nero driving for about one mile on a white dusty road lined with towering cypresses and as you arrive you will enjoy one of the best views over rolling fields, olive groves and Tuscan woods.

The venue was built in the Middle age as a family castle and it still retains this special and fairy-tale atmosphere.

A few years ago it was fully renovated keeping the traditional features of Tuscan architecture: cotto floors, wood coffered ceilings and antique furniture.

Modern amenities blend to the history of this venue: TV, wireless Internet access, dishwasher, microwave oven, washing machines, etc.

Tuscan weddings can be hosted either near the panoramic pool or in the venue restaurant (open on request and only for the villa guests); a small Chapel is available for Catholic blessings.

The panoramic and wide terrace is perfect for a symbolic or Protestant ceremony and, late afternoon at sunset, it becomes a special location for an outdoor wedding dinner with candles and lanterns.

In case of bad weather, the reception can be held in the beautiful restaurant hall and the ancient cellar of the villa.

All details have been taking into account for the organization of truly charming Villa weddings in Tuscany and Italy.

Red bricks, vaulted ceilings and the cotto floor make this wide room a special place to taste the Tuscan recipes or to organise an open bar and dancing in the night.

A pizza oven is also available at the villa: what a nice opportunity for a traditional Italian dinner with pizzas, pasta and gelati to welcome your guests.

Totally the villa can host up to 48 people.
