01 · In a sentence

Palazzo Monti della Pieve in Montichiari, open JuneNovember.

Palazzo Monti della Pieve commands sweeping views across the Lombardy countryside from its hilltop position in Montichiari, where manicured grounds and classical architecture frame ceremonies against a backdrop of rolling farmland and distant horizons.

The 18th-century estate's elevated setting provides natural drama and refined elegance, with multiple indoor and outdoor spaces that shift from intimate garden moments to grand reception halls.

Stone terraces and period rooms create distinct venues within the property itself.

We recently got married at Palazzo Monti della Pieve and ours was an ''international'' wedding, with plenty of guests coming over from various countries and I realise, it probably wasn't easy to handle it all. However, the staff took great care of us and Alessandra, the manager was phenomenal. She executed our vision perfectly and gave us great advice throughout. We went for a simple decor/flowers, I was nervous that it wouldn't be as perfect and beautiful but the results were outstanding and we were speechless when I saw the fantastic set-ups!! We also unfortunately hired a terrible dj, so our ''party'' night was a huge fiasco (to no fault of the staff of the Palazzo), however, Alessandra did everything in her power to save the night - starting from the moment of the cutting of the cake, DJ Kobby was nowhere to be found, so she promptly assisted us, connected her phone and we could move on with the night - then the DJ just wanted to leave us stranded without the dj set he promised, so she helped us liaise with him so we still managed to have a great time! At the end, all of our guests and us were very happy, we're just sad it's over!
