About Villa Sofia

A villa in the hills of Brianza where the park, the frescoed rooms and a slow weekend of celebration belong to one wedding.

Villa Sofia in Sirtori

Villa Sofia stands in Sirtori, in the province of Lecco in Lombardy, in the hills of Brianza within Parco del Curone. The house is surrounded by a private park of ancient trees, wisteria-draped pergolas and rose gardens, with jasmine and cypress in the gardens. Inside, the villa has frescoed ceilings, marble floors and antique furnishings, and the rooms balance grandeur with intimacy. The owner hosts and plans weddings personally, and the villa is built around the art of slow living. The estate is reserved for one wedding at a time. Every feature of the estate is designed to bring harmony and sophistication, blending history with understated elegance.

Most couples turn the wedding into a weekend at the villa. The first evening often begins with a welcome dinner beneath the trees, followed by a day of celebration that moves from the gardens into the villa's interiors. The final morning is quiet, with long breakfasts and lingering goodbyes. Spring through early autumn suits the outdoor celebrations best, when the gardens are in bloom and the weather is warm. Candlelight softens the rooms in the evening, and the sounds of the countryside beyond the walls carry across the house. The private swimming pool, the terrace and the pergolas give guests places to relax between the moments of the day.

Ceremonies

Vows beneath the wisteria

Vows can be exchanged beneath a canopy of wisteria, in the gardens or on the terrace, with the Italian countryside around the guests. Jasmine, roses and cypress trees frame the gardens and the golden sunsets, and make a natural setting for vows and photography. Indoors, the panoramic glass veranda overlooks the gardens and gives the ceremony a setting under cover that is still connected to the landscape. After the ceremony, the terrace and pergola areas are used for toasts.

Receptions

Terraces, salons and long tables

Cocktail hours begin on the terrace and in the pergola areas. The ceremony and champagne reception are organised by the villa team, and a plan B is worked out when the weather turns. The villa seats up to 70 guests for receptions and ceremonies. Dinner can be a formal seated meal beneath chandeliers or an outdoor feast under strings of light in the gardens. The garden terraces and inner salons can be styled for al fresco dining and for candlelit dinners beneath the vaulted interiors.

The stay

Staying at the villa

The main villa has suites and guest rooms for the couple and close family, with nearby villas and boutique accommodation for additional guests. The rooms are individually designed, blending antique charm with modern comfort, with high ceilings, frescoed walls, soft fabrics and hand-carved furnishings. Views sweep across the countryside, and the morning espresso is served in the garden.

Food and drink

Italian menus from the villa kitchens

Menus celebrate Italian cuisine, using seasonal ingredients from local farms and markets. The villa has professional-grade kitchens for private chefs, and all wedding dining is handled by the in-house culinary team. Formats range from a rustic Tuscan banquet to a refined multi-course tasting menu, with a relaxed brunch the morning after. Long tables are dressed with fresh flowers, fine linens and candles.

Unforgettable and wonderful experience

Natalja handled our wedding with great passion. Not only did she lovingly curate the flowers, but she also provided us with invaluable advice, including on which chef to choose. With her honest and friendly approach, she relieved us of any stress and allowed us to enjoy our special day fully. Thanks to her, our wedding was an unforgettable and wonderful experience. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Words can’t express how perfect everything was.

We had the absolute privilege of celebrating our wedding at Villa Sofia, and words can’t express how perfect everything was. From start to finish, every detail was handled with such care and love, it truly felt like a dream come true. A huge part of what made our day so special was Natalia. She is the most wonderful, warm-hearted, and caring person you could ever hope to meet. Her attention to detail, her calm energy, and the love she pours into everything she does made us feel supported and at ease throughout the planning process and on the big day. The location is stunning, the ambience magical, and the entire experience was unforgettable. We will cherish these memories for the rest of our lives. Thank you, Villa Sofia, and thank you, dear Natalia, you have a special place in our hearts forever.

It was the best decision to get married.

My husband and I decided to get married in the villa a year ago. We arrived with the whole family this week and spent three days in Villa Sofia. The planning throughout the year went wonderfully with Natalia and Ricardo. We were able to express all our wishes and everything was implemented exactly as we wanted. Natalia was available to answer any questions and took care of all the decorations and food planning (with the fantastic catering team). Everyone felt more than comfortable, and we, as the bride and groom, felt at home. It was the best decision to get married there. Despite the rain, we were able to find a plan B, and nothing was too much effort for the team. It was wonderful. We would recommend it to anyone without reservation and will definitely come back for a holiday. Natalia and Ricardo are a dream team! Thank you for everything!
