Lonato Castle, Lake Garda

Located approximately 5km from the shores of Lake Garda, Lonato Castle gives you the wonderful opportunity to become a princess for the day! Boasting a long and interesting history that dates back to 1000AD, it stands on a small hill with spectacular views of the countryside and lake in the distance.

Lonato Castle is a very versatile wedding venue that offers several choices for your ceremony including outdoor on the immaculate lawn or by the castle walls and indoor in Casa del Castellano a lovely and airy room or Sala Lettura with its chapel-style ambience - all truly perfect for you to say “I do” in style.

Your combined ceremony & reception can take place any day of the week at Lonato Castle (Mon-Thurs only when you just have the ‘ceremony’).

We could organise for your accommodation to be in Desenzano, the largest resort on the lake, easily accessible from local airports.

  • No more than one wedding per day •

Cocktail Parties & Wedding Receptions

To complement the flexibility of this enchanting venue and make the most of this exclusively private setting, couples usually opt to also have their drinks party and wedding reception at Lonato Castle, the amazing fixed menu even includes unlimited wine.
