25/10/2024: Awful wedding food-Beautiful venue Our family recently had our wedding here. The venue is classic, romantic and beautifully situated in the hills of Umbria. The sister-owners, Frederica and Charia were helpful and engaging and gave their full attention to the spouses and guests. It was wonderful to move into the abbazia for three days with only our guests. The breakfast included is lovely and so many options! Small issues like poor internet could not detract from the quaint and majestic setting. It was truly magical and we highly recommend this venue! On another note, I am posting this here because I think more future couples will be able to see it: DO NOT USE THE IN-HOUSE/ON-SITE CATERER. The caterer (Alloro Restaurant) is a separate business from the Abbazia itself but is on site. While everything else for the wedding was near perfect, the food at the wedding reception from this onsite caterer was absolutely awful. It was especially disappointing since we had visited the venue a year prior to do a full menu tasting with this caterer, which was quite excellent – but what we received on the wedding day was something else entirely. The quality and quantity of the food did not approach the tasting. Some of the courses were truly laughably small, cold, and overcooked. There was also no coffee, tea or espresso service offered, and the desserts were as though they had been purchased in supermarket packages. The poor quality food and slow service tried hard to ruin an otherwise beautiful wedding day. When I went looking for the caterer to talk with her during the service, she was nowhere to be found and was at another business arrangement. While the Alloro and Abbazia are separate businesses, it is reflective on the Abbazia to even engage someone as failing as this Caterer.
