Intimate wedding in Tuscany

A weekend at a villa for your closest people: one shared table, unhurried conversation and time with every guest.

An intimate wedding is designed for about thirty guests, and it follows a different logic. You can take a whole villa and spend the weekend there with family and friends, sit at one long table and find time to talk to everyone. There is no stage and no dance floor for a hundred people, but there is attention to detail. So what matters is less scale than the choice of house: number of beds, kitchen, a garden for the ceremony, the road in for guests. We select the villa, build a programme for two or three days, arrange food and transport, and make sure a small celebration does not become a string of chores for the couple.

What a weekend for your closest people includes

01

A villa for everyone

We find a villa where close guests stay overnight, counting beds, bathrooms, the kitchen and room for a table in the garden or a hall.

02

A ceremony for your own people

We arrange a ceremony in a garden or on a terrace where all guests stand close and family can read their own words.

03

One shared table

We seat everyone at one long table and build a menu of seasonal Tuscan dishes, allowing for allergies, children and vegetarians.

04

Welcome dinner and breakfast

We plan the evening before and breakfast the next morning, so the weekend becomes one shared event rather than a single evening.

05

Transfers and lodging

We meet guests at the airport, arrange minivans to the villa and back, and book nearby hotels for those who do not fit in the house.

06

Lighting and styling

We prepare string lights, candles, flowers and tableware, and arrange dinner music and a short dance set in the garden.

Tell us about your celebration

Tell us the occasion, the date and the number of guests. We will suggest a format, a venue and vendors, and prepare a fixed written estimate before any work starts.

What is special about a small wedding

The house matters more than the hall

We choose a villa as the place where people will spend two or three days, and check kitchen, bedrooms, parking and music rules before booking.

Fewer vendors

A small celebration needs fewer people on site, so we assemble a team that works quietly and does not turn the garden into a stage.

Room for conversation

We build the schedule so there are pauses between ceremony, dinner and dancing when the couple can spend time with each guest.

An estimate without extras

The written estimate leaves out items only large weddings need: we remove them in advance, and you see exactly what you are paying for.

Questions about an intimate wedding in Tuscany

How many guests count as an intimate wedding?

Usually about thirty guests or fewer: family and the closest friends. At that size you can choose a villa where everyone stays overnight.

Do we need to rent the whole villa?

For an intimate celebration usually yes: the villa is then yours alone, there are no outside guests and you decide when dinner and music happen. Rental terms and hours rules differ between villas.

How many days should we plan?

Many couples choose a weekend: arrival and a welcome dinner on Friday, the wedding on Saturday, a farewell breakfast on Sunday. That gives time with your people and no rush.

Can an intimate wedding take place in autumn or winter?

Yes, villas operate outside the summer season and more dates are free. Allow for the shorter day and the weather, so we plan the ceremony and dinner indoors, in a room with a fireplace or a large hall.

How is the food arranged at a small wedding?

It can be a served dinner from a caterer or a family table with a chef cooking on site. We propose a menu of seasonal dishes and arrange a tasting if you come ahead of time.
