The Ceremony
At Pian Di Cascina, we offer a romantic, Italian-style civil ceremony in the stunning medieval town hall in Gubbio. The historic setting is amazing and the views from the terrace of the town hall are breathtaking.
Gubbio is a medieval walled city, a maze of cobbled streets, stone archways and intricate passageways.
Gubbio is the best preserved medieval town in Umbria and is often promoted as the ‘Umbrian Siena’. The town is surrounded by beautiful countryside and nestled into the Apennine mountainside. It was a city of the ancient Umbrians (founded in the 3rd century BC) and many consider Gubbio was both the political and religious centre of Umbria. In Roman times, Gubbio was known as Iguvium.
(The town hall in Assisi may also be available for your wedding ceremony)
The Wedding Breakfast
We offer you a choice of venues for the wedding breakfast, however, the garden terrace is our favourite, as it is romantic and the food is delicious Umbrian fare. The beautiful garden restaurant is a 2 minute picturesque walk (from the town hall) through the cobbled streets of Gubbio.
You will dine in style on the flower lined terrace which overlooks the ancient roof tops of Gubbio. Your wedding breakfast will be a leisurely Italian feast your guests will fondly remember. The setting is romantic and the food delicious.
You have a choice of typical Italian dishes from a menu specially created for wedding celebrations.
You and your guests will be welcomed with Prosecco (Italian champagne) and canapés. The canapés will by followed by an antipasto course, a primo course (usually a pasta or a risotto), a meat or fish course, your choice of side dishes, a specially made Italian wedding cake, a traditional Italian dessert buffet, and coffee.
The table(s) will be dressed with Italian style and flair accented by quality linen and silver and glassware, seasonal flowers and menu cards.
Local red and white wine, water and waiter service is included.
The Evening Event
After a leisurely wedding breakfast, you may wish to continue your celebrations in Gubbio or return with your guests to continue the evening at the villa. We can provide a delicious Italian alfresco supper, followed by a romantic evening under the stars with fireworks surrounded by all your friends and family –a magical experience you are sure to remember!
