FRIULI-VENEZIA
GIULIA covers an enchanting area with many beautiful aspects
waiting to be discovered. Crowned by the impressive Alps,
it gradually descends to the charming Adriatic Sea.
In the midst, gentle green hills guard the secret of the vine.
The food is truly wonderful. Not prepared for endless
visitors and tourists, but lovingly prepared for the local
Italian society. Fresh, local ingredients, turned into
creative dishes, beautifully presented, and served at realistic
prices. This is the undiscovered jewel in Italy's crown.
Nothing
could be more like a fairytale than getting married in an
actual castle, and Italian castles can provide the perfect
setting for your romantic Italian wedding.
.
One
of the most beautiful castles in Italy, dating back to 1200,
nestles amongst vineyards which produce some of the finest
wines in
the
world.
Beautiful
countryside with snowcapped mountains in the distance, yet
with a mild, sunny climate that is just right for the vines
and the wonderful local produce in this part of the Friuli
region. Just one hour and a half from Venice, this special
castle and its surrounding grounds is the perfect venue for
either small, intimate events or large functions with over
100 guests. Nine rooms are available for guests within the
castle, whilst there are small, beautiful hotels located within
walking distance if this is your choice.
The
wedding ceremony can take place in the private chapel of the
castle, or in a small church set in beautiful woodland just
a short drive from the castle.
Rehearsal
dinners can be located in a wonderful restaurant just outside
the castle grounds as can the wedding reception itself or
this can even be in one of the beautiful rooms within the
castle, where the standard of catering and wines are second
to none.
This
wonderful venue is just perfect, and represents excellent
value for money. A balance between the grandeur of a real
fairytale wedding and the friendly warmth of welcome which
makes you feel at home, comfortable, yet really very special.
The castle also acts as a base for a romantic Honeymoon with
the beautiful Friuli region stretching out around you, yet
so near to Venice and the Veneto. For guests with a
little time on their hands, why not take advantage of the
18 hole golf course in the castle grounds ?
Don't
miss this opportunity for something spectacular at affordable
prices. It is so easy to be seduced by names like Venice
or Tuscany, and they are indeed beautiful, but the fame of
the name is reflected in the price. Why not discover
for yourself this special region - this wonderful castle -
with its friendly staff - something different - something
unique. Real Italy and a fabulous wedding in a real
Italian castle. Just for you !
 Civil
weddings are celebrated at the castle by the local
Mayor. The Civilly binding ceremony will take place in the
local town hall the day before or in the morning of the wedding
where you sign your marriage documents. The Mayor will then
come to the castle the next day ( or that afternoon ) to celebrate
the full wedding ceremony, where it will be possible to add
vows.
Catholic
Religious weddings can be celebrated in the small
private chapel at the castle. The ceremony can be fully legally
binding. It is required that one of the couple is Catholic.
