Wedding in Tuscany
By Dawn Boehmer
Ever dream of your knight in shining armor whisking you away over the lavender scented fields of Italian Tuscan countryside? The summer breezes blowing...WAIT!
A week without the web? Just say no sister!
International roaming charges? Never!
Don't give up your dream just yet. There are options. Your wedding in Tuscany is possible.
The historic Castello Leopold, 10 kilometers (approx. 6 miles) from the coast, is a gem of a place, for those whose budget cries who cares! As its name suggests, this Castello was once the residence of Leopold the II (Grand Duke 1765-1790).
Renovated with luxuries that Leopold himself could not imagine, this private villa has the stuff to make wedding dreams come true. At approx 20-30,000 Euro a week (approx. 28-43K USD) this private getaway is high on the swanky Wedding in Tuscany scale. It has all the modern conveniences that will make you feel right and home and you'll have room for 26 of your closest friends. And for the adventurous,
The Wanderer's Guide TO Lucca will help you navigate a visit through that ancient city.
For those with a budget around 5-7K (USD), 16 friends can join you and your groom for your pastoral nuptials outside the city of Pistoia at the Villa Salicone.
The onsite chapel will seat 40.
If your budget concerns top out around 3000 USD, there is the 14th century Poggio di Sopra. This country villa will not disappoint. Charming and rustic with surrounding acreage large enough for a party of 10.
One more thing before you gallop off into the sunset, consider hiring a wedding planner to navigate all the details for you; there are a lot of them. And wouldn't you rather spend your days in dreamy romance than crossing "t's" and dotting "i's"?
Sweet Dreams!
