Dimora delle Balze
The 19th Century restored masseria Dimora delle Balze extends to about 27 hectares, a truly magical place for an Italian wedding, situated between two of the most attractive Sicilian cities: Noto and Siracusa.
Dimora delle Balze has its own in-house catering and cuisine based on the collection of 0km products that are 100% organic certified. You can work with the chef to create a bespoke menu based on your personal tastes, and they can also cater any additional events such as a welcome dinner with your guests or a brunch or pool party the day after.
The venue can accommodate up to 26
guests across 11 luxe rooms. Each room is named after a piece of art, film, literature or music by a Sicilian artist, and all are decorated in the local style. Many have terraces overlooking the estate’s gardens and citrus groves.
The owner, Elena Lops, is specialised in set design and together with her team, can work with you to style your dream wedding. There are some incredible and authentically Sicilian spaces for your day; you can choose between three internal courts, the gardens, the saltwater pool and the lemon orchard, all of which are surrounded by the greenery of Val di Noto.
The venue has been restored with care and attention and the Dimora delle Balze team will no doubt make your wedding dreams come true.
