Getting married in Romagna among a few close friends: wedding at Palazzo Serre
If you dream of an intimate wedding in Romagna, away from the hustle and bustle of the Romagna Riviera and immersed in nature, Palazzo Serre in San Leo is the perfect venue. This historic residence, dating back to the year 1000, is perched on a hill in the Montefeltro region at the foot of San Leo, along the ancient pilgrimage route of Saint Francis (Rimini - La Verna). A meticulous restoration has returned the palace to its essential beauty and welcoming charm, offering an elegant and private atmosphere for celebrating your special day.

10 Reasons to Choose Palazzo Serre for an Intimate and Alternative Wedding in Romagna
At Palazzo Serre, I have organized the intimate and vegan wedding of Elisabeth and Martina (have you seen the stunning photos?), the destination weddings of Matthias and Vanessa, and that of Jaden and Diana.
Have you ever wondered why they chose Palazzo Serre for their big day? Without further ado, here are the reasons why these couples selected Palazzo Serre for their alternative but, above all, intimate wedding:
1. Exclusive and Private Location
A private villa with eight panoramic rooms, available for rent on Airbnb, ideal for those who wish to experience their wedding in total privacy. It is not located in a city or along the Romagna Riviera, and reaching it requires precise directions—so rest assured, there will never be random passersby or traffic!
2. Ideal Capacity for Intimate Weddings
Currently, Palazzo Serre can host up to 30 people (the maximum capacity for the Plan B option without a tent structure), providing a cozy and family-like atmosphere. However, in the coming seasons, it will be possible to host weddings with 100+ guests (with a tent structure).
3. Guest Accommodations
There are eight rooms available for you and your guests (five double rooms, two triples with a sofa bed, and one single room with a large bed), accommodating up to 17 people. The rooms are bright, stylish, and all have stunning bathrooms (I always check the bathroom first in a hotel room!) and breathtaking views that look like paintings.
4. Freedom to Choose Vendors
The property does not impose any catering service, photographer, or florist. While this is a great advantage, choosing the right wedding team is crucial—never rely on amateurs! Planning a wedding at Palazzo Serre can be very simple thanks to my trusted and tested vendor team.
5. Symbolic Ceremony with a Breathtaking View
Nestled among the Montefeltro hills, Palazzo Serre offers spectacular panoramas and a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere. Many of my couples chose this venue because of its unique surroundings, which bring a sense of peace and harmony.
Currently, Palazzo Serre is not yet a municipal house for civil ceremonies. However, you can host a symbolic ceremony in several stunning locations:
The green area overlooking the hills
The garden in front of the façade
The façade of Palazzo Serre itself
By the pool
The small garden near the entrance
6. Alternative Venue
Palazzo Serre is nothing like a traditional restaurant or historic villa—the classic wedding venues you find in the area. If you're looking for an intimate and alternative wedding in Romagna, this is the place!
7. Panoramic Pool
A hidden gem where you can cool off and enjoy the view with your loved ones. The pool area is perfect for hosting a dinner, a party, or both. If desired, even the symbolic ceremony could be held here!

8. Historic and Enchanting Spaces
With stone walls, wooden floors, and large windows framing the landscape, every space in Palazzo Serre is unique and charming.
9. Close to San Leo
Just minutes away lies San Leo, described by Umberto Eco as "the most beautiful town in Italy." It boasts a stunning fortress and historic churches. Find out more at san-leo.it.
10. Activities for Guests

Palazzo Serre is not just a wedding venue—it offers various experiences to make your stay and that of your guests unforgettable.
