Why it’s special: On the hills just behind Lucca, L’Arancera di Villa Grabau is a chic hideaway with citrus gardens and an infinity pool. The former farmhouse sits within the historic Villa Grabau estate, so you get heritage atmosphere with modern comfort. In summer, life moves outdoors among oranges, lemons and wide lawns; in cooler months, fireplaces make evenings cosy.
Ideal for: An intimate, multi-day celebration with your inner circle on site. Exclusive use sleeps 24 plus up to 8 extra beds across 12 bedrooms, which keeps a true house-party rhythm. For the reception, the Arancera gardens suit small to mid-size gatherings—think seated ceremonies up to around 80 under a tensile structure, or standing receptions to roughly 120. If you need more scale, we move the main day to Villa Grabau next door, using the historic halls or the grand Lemonhouse for a larger guest count.
Wedding experience: Hold a symbolic ceremony in the citrus garden, then slide into golden-hour cocktails by the pool and a long-table dinner under lights. For a legal civil rite, Villa Grabau offers licensed settings such as the Box Hedge Theatre and the English garden, so paperwork stays simple and everything remains within the estate. We curate catering, music, lighting and styling with our trusted suppliers, aligning every detail with your brief.
Good to know: You’re 7 km from Lucca, with Pisa about 30 minutes and Florence roughly 45. Travel is smooth for international guests. On site, the 18-metre saltwater infinity pool anchors daytime plans, and exclusive-use formats give you privacy for welcome cocktails, pool time and a farewell brunch. We manage rooming, transfers and timelines end to end, so the weekend flows.
Accommodation: 12 bedrooms for up to 24+8 guests
Max wedding guests: Up to 100 guests with a marquee
