Giuseppe Corsale

We are Giuseppe & Antonella, the newlyweds of September 16, 2025. You made us live a dream, making us experience intense emotions throughout the entire reception. You impressed us with your kindness and impeccable professionalism. It all began by following your step-by-step method, which offers countless ways to customize the event, allowing us to curate a tailor-made event for ourselves... calmly, without rushing, and with the opportunity to reflect and decide everything. We can't thank Antonio, Miriam, and the chef enough, who with their professionalism accompanied us (and put up with us!) throughout the planning and throughout the evening... present from start to finish! We truly recommend it to any couple. We were especially impressed by the quality of the food and by the fireworks and sparklers that created a dreamlike entrance choreography! Villa Fabiana and its staff listened to us from start to finish, leaving us delighted and amazed in every way! The professionalism of those who know their craft deeply, the desire to work is shared by the entire staff and they made sure everything went magnificently!

Villa Fabiana felt like HOME to us from the first moment. A stunning location, where you can find a FAMILY that cares for you, listens to you, and helps you with the important decisions for your special day. 20 days after our special day, we still receive numerous compliments on the success of the event. Elegant and unique decorations, exquisite food, impeccable and super attentive service. Thank you, Federica, for being a fundamental point of reference for us, a sincere and loyal friend, for putting up with and supporting us. Thank you, Emilia, for creating decorations that exceeded our expectations; my tears were the most sincere proof of that. Thank you, Antonio Big, for listening to us and helping us, allowing us to fulfill all our requests. Thank you, Antonio J., for easing our tension and worries by always putting a smile on our faces. Thank you, Miriam, for flawlessly coordinating our reception. And finally, THANK YOU to all the members of Villa Fabiana, because without you this dream wouldn't have been possible. We would choose you again and again. See you at the next event ♥️ We love you, Mirko and Valentina.
