Tonnara Foderà di Magazzinazzi
CASTELLAMMARE DEL GOLFO, SICILY
Tonnara Foderà di Magazzinazzi isn’t your average wedding spot—it’s a historic seaside estate with serious Sicilian soul. Once a working tuna fishery, this Castellammare del Golfo gem has been in the same family for generations, and it shows. Anchors, nets and old fishing vessels sit across the property like pieces of an open-air museum, giving the place a raw, authentic charm. And with Palermo airport just half an hour away, it’s as easy as it is unforgettable.
Weddings here are capped at 100 guests, keeping things intimate but full of atmosphere. You’ve got two backdrops to choose from: by the sea, where sunsets light up the bay in gold, or in the lush garden, dining under the stars in true Sicilian style.
Up to 22 guests can stay on site, making it perfect for a long weekend takeover with your closest crew. The estate also comes with private parking and plenty of space, so it’s practical as well as beautiful.
What sets Tonnara Foderà apart is the feeling—historic, a little unconventional, and effortlessly Sicilian. The kind of wedding people talk about long after the last cannoli is gone.
