A Lucchese Villa and Consecrated Chapel, Among the Olive Groves.

Villa Michaela is a historic Lucchese villa set among 50 acres of olive groves in Vorno, above Lucca. Its consecrated chapel, framed by a wisteria arch, is licensed for civil weddings. Eighteen bedrooms sleep the whole party within the estate walls. The vine-draped rooms, the lemon garden and the 18-metre pool are all part of the picture.

Chapel Vows, Olive Grove Feasts, Three Nights at the Villa.

Villa Michaela hosts weddings in its consecrated on-estate chapel, licensed for civil ceremonies, in the gardens beneath the ancient olive trees and at long tables under the Tuscan sky. With 18 bedrooms sleeping about 37 guests and the whole 50-acre estate available for exclusive use over a 3-night minimum, the wedding unfolds over days rather than hours. The 18-metre pool, the pizza oven and a soundproof party room licensed to 3am take care of everything after the vows. Pricing from £19,500 (indicative); on enquiry for a bespoke proposal.

Above Lucca, Among the Olives.

Vorno is the kind of Tuscan village that only those who have been remember: a handful of stone buildings in the hills above Lucca, surrounded by olive groves that have been producing oil since long before the villa was built. From the estate's terraces, the view takes in the valley below and the pine-clad ridges above.
