Giardini del Fuenti isn’t just a venue — it’s an experience, a celebration of nature and Italian heritage that transforms any event into an unforgettable moment.
A World to Live In
Nestled in the heart of the Amalfi Coast, Giardini del Fuenti is a sprawling 16-hectare estate that feels like a love letter to the Mediterranean. The vibrant colors of the Gulf of Salerno, the terraced gardens, and the scent of native lemons create a setting so enchanting that it feels almost otherworldly. This is a place where the boundaries between nature and design blur, where the elegance of Italian craftsmanship meets the raw beauty of the coast.
For couples seeking a luxurious yet soulful wedding experience, Giardini del Fuenti offers versatile spaces to craft the wedding of your dreams — whether it's an intimate gathering or a grand celebration.
The Limoneto
Imagine saying your vows under a canopy of native Amalfi lemons, their delicate fragrance weaving through the warm coastal breeze. The Limoneto is a charming outdoor space right by the sea, with wrought iron tables, plush sofas, and panoramic views of the Gulf. Its capacity for up to 300 guests (250 seated) makes it perfect for an elegant cocktail hour or a relaxed al fresco dinner. The sound of the waves, the sunset over the Gulf — it’s a sensory experience that will linger long after the last toast.
Giardino
At the heart of Giardini del Fuenti lies the Giardino — a lush, versatile space that can host up to 350 guests indoors. The adjacent pool, overlooking the sea, can be covered to create additional space for dancing under the stars. The Giardino is where the venue’s natural beauty meets modern functionality, making it ideal for a seamless flow from ceremony to reception.
Arena del Fuenti
For couples who love the idea of a dramatic flair, the Arena del Fuenti offers a theatrical setting with modular stands across nine levels and a capacity of over 400 guests. Imagine a live band or a choreographed dance performance as the centerpiece of your celebration, with the Amalfi cliffs as your backdrop. This is where art and celebration merge into a single breathtaking experience.
