Budget of $40k for the total wedding (drinks, venue, and food). Seeking a venue with a Tuscan feel, and the following: - indoor and outdoor options - exclusive use - BYO alcohol - at least a 12am finish time (with option to extend would be great!) - accommodation on site if possible (extra charge is fine) Would love to hear from you :)

Hi
We definitely have the mediterranean vibe with a white-washed chapel and bell tower, stone walls and fountain-filled courtyards reminisceant of a mediterranean village. So if you can keep your numbers to no more than 100 we may just be what you're looking for. Our curfew is 11:00pm and we accommodate 16 onsite.
Please be in touch and I will send further inforation and a price guide. Let me kwo what dates and times suit you and we'll schedule a venue tour.
Warm regards
