01 · In a sentence

Villa Appia Antica in Roma.

Villa Appia Antica commands a striking position along Rome's ancient Appian Way, with manicured grounds and period architecture framing views across the Italian countryside.

The 18th-century estate sits on 5 acres of landscaped gardens, olive groves, and classical stonework that evoke centuries of Roman history.

Stone terraces and tree-lined pathways create distinct spaces for ceremony, cocktails, and dining.

Amazing place. Thanks to all the staff of Villa, and especially Diletta, our wedding day was the best event that happened with is this year. From all the suggestions on the correct places to sit (due to unpredictable weather in Rome) until the very end of the party, me and my husband felt like real guests of honour. The dishes were sooo good that I still reveive compliments to the chef from our guests. Really huuge thanks to all the staff. Grazie!
