Villa de Lucca is a must! As a Wedding Planner, it was such a breeze working with them! Sarah, the Venue Manager went above and beyond. She was communicative leading up to my client’s wedding day. Sarah was such a team player day of as well always checking in and helping out when needed. The wedding day went smooth and the couple had the best day ever!
I look forward to working here again soon! I will definitely be recommending Villa de Lucca to couples!
Thank you Sarah, Zenia, and Jon!

Working with Zenia, and the venue coordinator Jenna for our wedding was perfect. The consistent and open communication allowed us to constantly be in the know of everything as our wedding got closer.
The venue itself is absolutely beautiful. Multiple spaces can be utilized on the property for a ceremony, reception, rehearsal dinner, cocktail hour, etc.
The only downside is the very minimal parking, which forces you to accommodate your budget to use shuttles for your guests. But ultimately our guests were able to fully enjoy their evening and not worry about driving.
I highly recommend renting umbrellas if choosing to use Villa de Lucca, whether for cocktail hour, pre-ceremony, and/or catering. When the sun is bright, it can get quite toasty rather quickly. But just as fast the temperature increases, it makes for a very comfortable evening depending on the time of the year.
Did I mention they have a hot tub ?! The hot tub was definitely used in the evenings to just relax and enjoy the views. The views from the property are breathtaking. It doesn't get old whatsoever.
Again our wedding weekend (4.20.24) was incredible, which all started with finding the right venue.
Villa de Lucca was an absolute dream wedding venue! The breathtaking view immediately won us over, and it provided the most picturesque backdrop for our special day. The entire experience was made even more memorable by the warm and professional hospitality of Zenia and Jon, the owners. They ensured that every detail was taken care of, and their kindness added a personal touch that made us feel at home.
Staying at the villa with our family was a delight. The accommodations were top-notch, and the ambiance was nothing short of magical. We couldn't have asked for a better setting to share such a momentous occasion with our loved ones.
Jenna, the estate manager, deserves special recognition for her exceptional service. She was an invaluable resource throughout the planning process, always ready to assist with any questions or concerns we had. Her expertise and genuine helpfulness were truly appreciated.
