Why it’s special
In Chianti near Siena, Villa Catignano is a 17th-century villa with a formal Italian garden, frescoed salons and a classic courtyard. Terraces open to vineyards and olive groves. The mood is historic yet effortless, which suits multi-day celebrations.
Ideal for
A house-party wedding with your core group on site and others nearby. As planning benchmarks, guides note accommodation for roughly 70 guests on standard beds and up to about 86 using sofa beds. Exclusive-use formats can scale from around 40 to 90 people across the estate. Travel is simple between Florence and Siena. We coordinate rooming lists and transfers end to end.
Wedding experience
Hold a legal civil or symbolic ceremony in the gardens or courtyard. Then move to golden-hour cocktails and a long-table dinner under lights. Indoors, the Grey Hall seats about 80 for dinner (around 120 for cocktails), with additional frescoed rooms linking to the terrace and courtyards. We curate catering, music, lighting and styling with our trusted suppliers, so the look stays coherent from aisle to last dance.
Capacities and flow
Outdoors, large dinners fit comfortably in the courtyard and on the lawns beside the Italian garden. Indoors, you can pair the Grey Hall with adjoining salons to right-size the plan for shoulder months. Therefore your timeline stays smooth in any season.
Good to know
The estate includes the villa and the adjacent fattoria with apartments, pools and wide green areas for welcome night, pool day and farewell brunch. You’re about 8 km from Siena, which keeps logistics easy for town-hall paperwork or church ceremonies. Meanwhile, the formal garden photographs beautifully at sunset. We manage permits, schedules and production throughout
