Villa Perara: the new era of weddings in Calabria

The Coast of the Gods, located along the Tyrrhenian coast of Calabria, in the province of Vibo Valentia, is considered one of the most beautiful and suggestive areas in all of Italy, due to its natural and cultural beauty.

The beaches of Capo Vaticano and Grotticelle are just some of the wonders in the area waiting to be discovered. Capo Vaticano, in particular, is famous for its white cliffs that plunge into a deep blue sea, creating a postcard-perfect landscape.

The villages are also unique attractions waiting to be explored: Pizzo and Tropea are true gems that deserve a special mention.

Pizzo is known as the "city of ice cream" due to its artisanal gelato that attracts tourists from everywhere. But it’s also a place full of history and charm: the 15th-century Aragonese castle offers a spectacular view of the coast, while the historic center is a fascinating maze of narrow, picturesque streets.

Tropea, the "Pearl of the Tyrrhenian”, is also known for its splendid historic center, as well as its stunning panoramas and enchanting beaches, with their fine white sand. In the heart of the village, you can find artisan shops, typical restaurants and ancient churches, such as the famous Cathedral of Santa Maria of Romania, or the Sanctuary of Santa Maria dell’Isola of Tropea.

If the vivid tones and historic towns of the Coast of the Gods leave you breathless, you will soon discover that you can find fabulous places also by traveling through the inland hills. Here you can immerse yourself in a mosaic of colors and scents, among Mediterranean vegetation, centuries-old olive groves, and lush vineyards, entering an atmosphere of peace and serenity.

It’s in this splendid natural context that Villa Perara rises, an intimate and elegant place to experience refined ceremonies without losing that sense of authentic simplicity typical of the area.

Villa Perara represents the latest adventure of the Valentour group, a tour operator that has been dedicated to promoting and enhancing the beauty of Calabria since 2001. Deborah Valente, the CEO of the group, has transformed this magnificent villa into a symbol of refinement and personalization for exclusive weddings, introducing a new era of weddings in the region.

What are the secrets behind the success achieved by Villa Perara under Deborah's guidance? We asked Debora to share some insights with us personally.

"A wedding is the most important event, and here we truly strive to make it special and unique. Our goal is to go beyond the typical, repetitive, and stereotypical event. We aim to create an experience full of elegance, precision, and passion. 

An example undoubtedly involves the cuisine.

"A perfect wedding cannot be complete without a top-tier banquet that delights the guests' palates with a memorable experience. Our kitchen brigade offers modern dishes using local products, blending innovation and local tradition to make each wedding banquet a gastronomic journey to remember.”

Another distinctive feature of Villa Perara is its versatility, not only in combining modernity and tradition in the culinary field but also in merging refinement and intimacy in a unique and engaging atmosphere.

"Exactly! Another secret of Villa Perara lies in the ability to customize every event. Our guests can rent the entire location, having full access to the structure to tailor every detail according to their tastes. We enjoy listening carefully to the desires and needs of each couple to meet everyone's requests by offering the best possible solutions.”

And what are the most appreciated spaces by the guests, the most scenic spots to create the best setting for a perfect wedding?

"There are several, actually. The beautiful gardens, the luxurious indoor halls, or the pool area, which is ideal for welcoming guests and serving appetizers. There are many places where each couple can create lasting memories of a special day.”

Because at Villa Perara, nothing remains just a dream: everything can become reality thanks to the flair, creativity and experience of those who have infused the entire location with a magical and unforgettable atmosphere.
