Weddings at Villa Sant'Erasmo

One place. One day. A story that lasts.

An estate on Lake Canterno

A wedding on Lake Canterno has an unforgettable light: the water, the woods, the stone of a house dating from 1646. Villa Sant'Erasmo hosts one event at a time, with the discretion of a wedding venue in Lazio that remains entirely at the couple's disposal.

A little over an hour from Rome, in the heart of Ciociaria, in the province of Frosinone.

The spaces of the Villa

The formal garden, the gravel courtyards, the rooms with antique wooden beams: every space can host a different moment of the day, from the welcome to the dancing.

The reception

Aperitivo in the garden, lunch or dinner in the rooms or outdoors: wedding receptions in Ciociaria find here a natural setting, with no unnecessary decor.

The story of the day

The welcome

Guests arrive in the late afternoon: the seating chart in the shade of the façade, round tables under umbrellas, and white panelling backed by ivy welcoming guests to a corner dedicated to spritz. The soft light does the rest.

Aperitivo

The Spritz Bar

A bar opening onto the garden, glasses lined up, hand-lettered signs: the aperitivo is the first moment of celebration, amid flowers and the stone of the courtyards.

Buffet

Starters, Sweets and Fruit

The buffets tell the story of the countryside around the Villa: seasonal fruit, cheeses, spoon desserts. All served outdoors, among lamps and flowers.

The table

Menus, candles, crystal

In the rooms and under the trees, the table stays essential: linen, candles, a table setting cared for down to the smallest detail. A layout designed to welcome your guests in the best way on your most beautiful day.

The celebration

Cake, favours and toasts

When evening comes, it's time for the cake, then the toast and the sweet favours: crystal, flowers, gifts for guests, and the celebration carries on late into the night with dancing.

The couple

The time of two people

Between one moment and the next, it's the simplest gestures that remain: an embrace, hands intertwined, a walk towards the lake as the light fades.
