The sea for an important day.

From Florence you drive down through Tuscany to the coast: one hour forty-five, and the wedding has the sea in front of it.

From Florence

The city of art choosing the bay.

Florence is 116 km from Astragalo: A1 south, Firenze Scandicci exit, Fi-Pi-Li to Livorno, Variante Aurelia to Castiglioncello. About one hour and forty-five minutes.

Those looking for the sea for their wedding look at the coast: the Bay of Quercetano offers the civil ceremony on the terrace, four spaces facing the water and one event per day.

The wedding

One wedding, the whole bay.

The venue has been accredited for civil ceremonies on the terrace since 2018. The couple arrives, turns around and the landscape is already the setting: the arch, the flowers, the water below and the bay around.

Catering is in house, the kitchen is the bistrot’s and the party continues in the two club rooms and at the piano bar, without moving guests.

The journey

One hour forty-five, all fast roads.

The route is simple: A1 to Firenze Scandicci, Fi-Pi-Li to Livorno, Variante Aurelia south and Castiglioncello exit. Those who prefer the train arrive in Livorno or Florence and continue on the Tyrrhenian line.

For Florentine guests the distance works as a day trip; for the couple it becomes a seaside weekend, with the Etruscan coast half an hour away.
