Questions about the venue

Fontanaro operates as a genuine working farm, not a converted estate. Guests experience active olive cultivation, seasonal harvests, and farm-based dining that authentically reflects slow living principles rather than recreating them.

Yes. The estate includes multiple villas for overnight accommodation, enabling multi-day wedding events and allowing guests to experience the full agricultural rhythm of the property.
What is the ceremony capacity?+
The venue accommodates 20-150 guests, with flexible configurations for ceremonies in outdoor farm settings or covered pavilion spaces.
What cuisines and dietary options are available?+
The estate emphasizes farm-to-table menus using its own organic olive oil, seasonal vegetables, and regional Umbrian specialties. Custom menus accommodate dietary restrictions and guest preferences.
