Villa di Ulignano in Volterra, open JuneNovember.

Villa di Ulignano sits on a working Tuscan estate where logistics matter: the 15-hectare property has on-site accommodation options, eliminating the need to shuttle guests between venues.

This restored Renaissance villa in Volterra's countryside offers flexibility for multi-day celebrations without the coordination headaches of scattered accommodations.

Stone terraces, Tuscan gardens, and medieval architecture provide authentic backdrops while the property's scale handles everything from intimate ceremonies to 150-person receptions.

This venue is an extremely well-oiled machine that delivers a unique and memorable experience every time. Was honored to be part of a wedding here, and no details or amenities were missed. With plenty of social spaces for a large wedding party to entertain themselves for multiple days, and vendors and staff that move swiftly and silently to execute a special event seamlessly.
