Frequently asked questions

Answers to the most common questions

Where is the estate and how far is it from Milan, Lake Como and Lugano?
We are in Vergiate, in the province of Varese, set in an ancient woodland just off the A8 Milan–Lakes motorway. We are easy to reach from Varese, Como, Milan, Lugano and all of Switzerland.
Can we dance and party after midnight?
Yes. The party can be held outdoors. You dance and celebrate in the historic courtyard or beneath a cascade of warm lights in the marquee until late, with no need to move indoors at midnight. The night is yours.
Is there in-house catering? Is the food good?
Yes, the cuisine is prepared in house and designed to amaze: a rich island-style buffet for the aperitif, unlimited drinks throughout dinner, two first courses and a main served at the table, a tiered wedding cake and a dessert buffet. Plus two house specialities: a spritz fountain and a van serving wood-fired pizza fresh from the oven. And if you would prefer a bespoke proposal, we are here to listen.
Does the wedding take place outdoors, in nature?
Yes: you can hold your ceremony (including a symbolic rite) in the ancient woodland, and enjoy dinner and the party outdoors surrounded by nature, in the historic courtyard.
What happens if it rains?
No problem: our generous indoor spaces have exactly the same charm as the outdoor ones, so the party stays just as lively under cover. A plan B that is never a compromise, but an equally beautiful and convenient alternative.
How many guests can you host, and is the venue exclusive?
We host receptions for up to 250 guests, and the estate is exclusively yours for the entire day, with complete privacy. A dedicated coordination service that takes care of every detail and every timing is also available on request.
