Hospitality and comfort for you and your guests: experience a TRUE Tuscan wedding at Borgo Castelvecchi
Planning a wedding in Tuscany is the dream of many international couples: golden hills, pristine medieval villages, world-renowned wine, and that romantic atmosphere that only this region can offer. Borgo Castelvecchi, in the heart of Radda in Chianti, is one of the few locations capable of transforming this dream into an authentic and comfortable experience, designed to welcome newlyweds and guests from abroad.
In this article, we’ll explain why Castelvecchi is the ideal choice for those seeking a destination wedding in Tuscany without sacrificing the comfort, hospitality, and charm of a historic village.
An entire village for your wedding
Imagine being able to reserve a small 11th-century medieval village just for your event: stone squares, cypress-lined avenues, ancient farmhouses, and an 18th-century manor house. At Castelvecchi, the spaces become a single, intimate and evocative setting, perfect for a wedding lasting one or more days.
Unlike more common venues, here you won’t find a simple place to celebrate, but an authentic private village where the bride and groom and guests can stay, enjoy convivial moments, relax, and celebrate together.
Rooms and apartments to accommodate your group
For an international wedding, logistics are crucial: guests must be able to move around easily, feel welcomed, and have everything they need to enjoy their stay. Castelvecchi offers various accommodation options:
Rooms in the main villa
Elegant, bright, with period furnishings and an unparalleled view of the Chianti region. Perfect for the bride and groom or close family members seeking a touch of sophistication.
Apartments in old farmhouses
Larger options, ideal for families or small groups of friends. Exposed beams, terracotta floors, and welcoming spaces create a warm and typically Tuscan atmosphere.
Capacity for international groups
The hamlet can accommodate dozens of guests in total comfort, allowing you to transform your wedding into a true wedding weekend.
The magic of a shared stay
For guests arriving from abroad, the opportunity to spend multiple days in the same location makes the experience even more special.
At Castelvecchi, shared moments come naturally:
- Outdoor breakfasts overlooking the vineyards
- Sunset aperitifs in the hamlet’s square
- Rustic or elegant dinners organized upon request
- Walks through the vineyards to immerse yourself in the Tuscan countryside
- Wood-oven pizza evening, perfect for breaking the ice among guests
- Pool party after the ceremony, for an informal farewell to the newlyweds
- It’s the ideal setting for a wedding that’s more than just an event, but a unique travel experience.
- Comfort and services dedicated to international guests
Planning a destination wedding means thinking of every detail, especially for those embarking on a long journey. That’s why Castelvecchi offers:
Welcome and support in multiple languages
Having staff who speak English (and other European languages) helps guests feel immediately at home.
Private parking and easy access
Important for groups arriving by car or minivan from Florence or Pisa Airport.

Experience Tuscany through taste
One of the reasons why so many foreign couples choose Castelvecchi is the opportunity to offer guests an authentic immersion in Tuscan flavors.
- Regional cuisine prepared with local ingredients
- Wine tasting in the village’s historic cellars
- Perfect pairings with Chianti Classico produced in the surrounding area
