Frequently asked questions

Can we use multiple spaces for ceremony and reception?

Yes. The 147-acre grounds include separate formal gardens, woodland areas, and manicured lawns that can be configured for ceremony, cocktails, and dining across distinct zones.

Is the venue weather-dependent?

The outdoor garden spaces are weather-dependent. We recommend discussing tent options and covered pavilion availability with the venue directly at http://www.parcopuccini.it/

What is the accommodation situation nearby?

Pistoia is 15 minutes away with hotels ranging from 3-5 star properties. The venue is rural but not remote, making guest accommodation accessible without sacrificing garden privacy.

Can we bring our own vendors?

Contact the venue directly through their website to discuss catering, floristry, and entertainment partnerships and any preferred vendor requirements.

What guest count works best?

The grounds accommodate 20-150 guests comfortably. Smaller weddings benefit from intimate garden spaces; larger celebrations utilize the full park expanse.
