Fascinating history, superb elegance, unique décor: if that’s what you picture when you think about the location for your wedding day, then Villa Cora is the one. Every lover of beauty, in Tuscany and beyond, knows this venue – it’s the place to be, if you wish for an exclusive event.

Villa Cora is like a precious jewel, that you can observe in awe and should treat with care. Designed by the architects Pietro Comparini and Giuseppe Poggi, this stately home was built by Baron Oppenheim at the end of the 1860s, when Florence was the capital city of Italy. At that time, the highest members of the aristocracy were attending social events at Villa Cora: it was already the place to be!

Owner after owner and guest after guest, the palace gained more and more prestige thanks to its incredible interiors and furnishing. Take the lavish Hall of Mirrors, for example, with its sophisticated, golden friezes, or the Moorish Salon with its Arabian-style dome. The frescoes and decorations that characterize every room of the splendid Villa Cora make it one of the most luxurious wedding venues in Florence and Tuscany – beyond any doubt.

Winter wedding in one of the Villa’s memorable halls, or summer celebration in the centuries-old park that overlooks the Boboli Gardens: whatever you’re dreaming of, it’s going to be exclusive and magnificent. Can you even imagine the wedding photos you could take in such a timeless and impeccable setting?

Our recommendation is to reserve the whole Villa Cora for you and your guests (two nights is the minimum stay) so that you can enjoy every space without letting anything distract you from your once-in-a-lifetime event. If you wish for a smaller and more intimate ceremony, no problem: you can have that too.

All you have to do is tell us your wedding dreams, and we will craft every single detail with dedication: getting married at Grand Hotel Villa Cora is going to be unforgettable.
