Wedding in Italy - tranquility and beauty - Locanda Palazzone

The Locanda Palazzone is a beautiful contradiction in terms. It is considered to be one of the oldest hotels in the whole of Italy, having started off life as a 13th century pilgrim’s inn, yet it is also one of the country’s most contemporary accommodations with its Scandinavian-style, minimalist design. 

In short, old world heritage and new world panache. We can also add that this restored medieval “palazzo” is the heart of one of Orvieto’s most exclusive wine estates. In fact, it is part of the “Palazzone” winery, one of the region’s top quality winemakers.

Standing on top of the hill, the views are one of utter beauty and there seems to be nothing going on for miles. This is a very quiet spot indeed, though it does include a fine restaurant, and as befits such a place an extensive and fantastic wine cellar, as well as an outdoor pool. The rest is lush and hilly country surrounding this truly charismatic place to stay.

The season, the place, the wines give all their meaning to the dishes we want you to taste. You will be welcomed by the colors of the sunset in a simple and refined atmosphere. 

The lovely view onto the vines and the city of Orvieto becomes the most peacefull and refined setting for our summer ‘dining room’.

Locanda Palazzone is particularly well adapted for hosting weddings or events for a limited number of guests (max 120 persons). For such events we do require that the whole Locanda is rented for a minimum of two nights. We can accomodate up to 18 guests and be of assitance to find the extra rooms needed in the near vicinity. You can rely on our experience and taste to finc the best solution for a full success of the event.

On the garden side to the west of the Locanda there is a large lawn that goes all the way to a Sangiovese vine, where we can accomodate a banquet for 120 guests. The terrace faces east; the view looks onto the vines and the valley all the way to the city of Orvieto and the hills at the back of the valley. Here we can serve lunch for 30 to 35 people and drinks for up to 120 persons.

The main hall on the ground floor is characterised by four major arches and two large glass doors onto the main lawn ; this space allows a reception for 10 to 15 people for dinner . Usually this location is best chosen for an autumn or winter event, when the atmosfere can be even more elegant and warm with the burning openfire.

The ‘Enoteca’ is located on the lower level with an outside access leading onto the terrace. The elevator links the Enoteca directly to the main hall. We can organise dinner parties for 25 to 30 guests in the Enoteca. This dining room is also used in the spring or in the autumn, when the weather becomes too cold ouside after dinner, to continue and finish off the party

Palazzo Belmote - wedding in authentic Italian style

Arriving at Palazzo Belmonte is like entering in another world: the magic begins the moment you reach the stone-walled courtyard where the scent of jasmine, rose, and honeysuckle perfumes the air, where you can barely see the building for the foliage and you can hear the sound of crashing waves long before you reach the sea: you feel instantly re-energised.



At Palazzo Belmonte history, privacy, nature, tranquility, comfort and elegance blend into "one special dream", while the atmosphere and spirit of a private home are carefully maintained.  In a unique position on the sea, the Palazzo remains “one of the best kept secrets of the Mediterranean”.

Weddings

Palazzo Belmonte is the perfect place for an elegant wedding or other special event. Nothing can equal the ambience and glorious views from the Palazzo. On the clearest days the islands of Capri and Ischia seem to shimmer on the horizon, floating on an azure sea.

In the evening, after the sun has lazily set, the star filled sky is a perfect canopy for the Belvedere restaurant. Capri’s twinkling lights flicker on the horizon as the waves lap on the shore below.

The entire Palazzo can be reserved with sufficient notice or, if you are planning a smaller event, certain areas of the Palazzo and the gardens can be set aside for private use. Romantic ceremonies, religious or civil, can be celebrated in the family chapel, outdoors in the flower-filled courtyard or in the gardens. 


A beach wedding, or a service on the islet of Licosa with its lighthouse, are possible alternatives for a celebration. 

One of the most idyllic locations in the Mediterranean, Prince Belmonte’s lovely 17th century home.

Palazzo Belmonte is a sophisticated Historical Residence by the sea, less than 2 hours from Naples International Airport, south of the magical Amalfi Coast, in an unspoilt corner of Italy which lies in the heart of Magna Graecia.

Whether you prefer a truly relaxing or an active stay, the Palazzo has an effective all season appeal across the generations.
