Pandolfa Casa di Noelia
Pandolfa Casa di Noelia is a historic countryside wedding venue set in Predappio, between Bologna and Florence. The estate spans over 140 hectares of vineyards, olive groves and ancient woodland, offering a sense of scale and privacy that suits well-planned, elegant celebrations.
At the heart of the property stands a grand villa built in 1731 by the Albicini marquises, known for its striking façade and 100 windows. The style is formal but not overbearing, with generous proportions and a layout that allows weddings to move naturally between indoor and outdoor spaces.
Pandolfa can host weddings for up to 180 guests. Outdoor areas include the gardens surrounding the villa and the pool area, ideal for ceremonies, aperitifs and relaxed gatherings. Indoors, several reception rooms are available, with the Salone degli Affreschi serving as the main dining space, well suited to larger seated dinners.
The venue is approximately 15 minutes from Forlì Airport and 60 minutes from Bologna Airport making it accessible for international couples planning a destination wedding in Emilia-Romagna.
