Villa Il Granduca in Carmignano, open June–September.
Guests arrive at Villa Il Granduca to discover a sprawling Tuscan estate where rolling vineyards frame every vantage point, and centuries-old architecture provides an authentic backdrop for celebrations.
The 12-hectare property welcomes visitors with tree-lined drives and manicured gardens, offering multiple ceremony and reception spaces that feel both grand and intimate.
From the moment guests step onto the grounds, the Carmignano landscape becomes part of the experience—a living gallery that shifts light and color throughout the day.
We organized our wedding at Villa Il Granduca. The place is magical, beautiful, the owners of the villa are extremely nice and helpful. I recommend this place to everyone.
