Whether you dream of an open-air or intimate chapel ceremony, Ristonchi has you covered.
The best thing about an event at Ristonchi is that everything is all at one location, without anything being in the same place!
When your guests arrive they’ll be shown to their rooms where they can unpack, freshen up or change into their swimsuit! On the first night at the castle you and your guests will have a make your own party on the terrace then after some wine and talking late into the night everyone will go to their bed just a few steps away.
The morning of the wedding day guests return to the terrace for breakfast. Lunch is served from a panini truck at the pool - so no one has to get dressed, they can play all day at the pool with a panini in one hand and an aperol spritz in the other.
Soon they will need to walk the short distance back to their rooms to get ready for the ceremony, which will take place on the lawn right by their rooms. After hearing your vows and cheering you on as newlyweds everyone will walk a few steps to the beautiful aperitivo area.
Once it’s dinner time they will walk through the olive trees to see a gorgeous view of the tables, bistro lights and the Tuscan sunset. Once they are full from the multiple courses of Tuscan deliciousness (and the cake!) you’ll all walk a few more steps down to the Rave Cave, our dungeon turned disco with open bar and DJ. If at any time a guest’s energy is fading they can take a short walk back to their room and be in their bed in under 1 minute! Having your guests stay onsite keeps everyone in a safe environment, no one has to drive, no one gets lost or has to deal with a stressful situation of waiting for transportation back and forth to different events.
The day after the wedding is everyone’s time to relax, but especially yours! All the stress should be long gone by now and you can take the day to enjoy all the people you love most in a beautiful place while no one has to worry about anything. On the schedule for today is a later brunch, BBQ pool party and pasta making class. You can add activities like a wine tasting or a karaoke party too!

Testimonials
"The food - my god. I can genuinely say every single meal we ate at the castle was easily some of the best cooking we've had in Italy, and my entire group could not stop raving about it. Not only is the food delicious, it is abundant. Every meal was cooked to perfection. Even self-made pizzas and pasta were good because the dough and ingredients provided were so fresh! From the eggs at bruch, to the tagliata steak, the roasted potatoes, to paninis and lasagna, everything was soooo sooooooo good. Also, the gelato and pastries at dinner were phenomenal. OH and cannot forget the truffle fries as a midnight snack - amazing!"
M & B
“I was lucky enough to get to stay at Castello di Risonchi in late May 2019 for my little brother's wedding. The experience was so great it's hard to know where to begin. The setting is absolutely picturesque, nestled in the rolling hills of the Tuscan countryside in a building that dates to at least 900 (at least simply because that’s the oldest deed of sale that the owners had found). The rooms are quaint and comfortable, and the views from the top rooms unparalleled.”

"The venue is absolutely stunning. Pictures don't do it justice! I had never visited the castle before day 1 of our party so you can imagine I was a little nervous about how everything would be. This place is breathtaking and organised in such a perfect way for a multi-day party. From the terrace, to the pool and bbq area, to the dinner lawn and of course, the RAVE CAVE. This place was AWESOME. The views were unlike anything I've seen and the sunset and cloud formations we saw were unreal. My friends also loved the bonus hikes and trails!"
J & W
"The Castello di Ristonchi team was reliable every step of the planning process and even exceeded our expectations. The second that our guests checked in they were swept away with the breathtaking views of the Tuscan hills and the food was hands down the best Italian food we've ever had... trust us, my fiancé and I used to live in Italy. Stefanie and Rasmus welcomed us to their dreamy castle, the chapel was perfect for our ceremony and the outdoor reception was everything we had hoped for under a beautiful scenic sunset and stringed lights. Plus, they have the best network of local vendors from the acoustic musicians that played all night long to the makeup artist. Thank you, Castello di Ristonchi! My husband and I can't wait to return with our family and someday with our children."
