Bella Collina is one of our favorite venues to work at in Central Florida, as there is truly no place like it. There are lots of options of utilizing the property for your wedding day. Their staff is so friendly and helpful, and the food is simply delicious! We recently caught up with their team to bring you more information.
This gorgeous property opened in 2008 as a Tuscan-inspired Clubhouse and private member club offering golf, tennis and spa services. It wasn’t until 2010 that they started hosting weddings in their clubhouse, with ceremonies on the lawn. They have since grown so much, having added an expansive ballroom, with floor-to-ceiling views of the property in 2014. “We now host an average of 170 weddings per year”, says their team!
One of our favorite parts of this Bella Collina is that couples have the exclusivity of being the only wedding on site each day! You won’t have to worry about running into another event, bride, groom, or any confusion. Some other things that they include, besides all food & beverage, is complimentary parking, a refreshing beverage station upon guest arrival, exclusive access for an engagement session, access to the Club the day prior for rehearsal, necessary dining tables, white or mahogany Chiavari chairs for outdoor locations, champagne Chiavari chairs and a 20 x20 dance floor in the Ballroom. Whew, what a list of inclusions!
We can attest firsthand that this team is accommodating, responsive, passionate and attentive from start to finish. From the moment you tour Bella Collina to the moment you’re saying your goodbyes, they are available for anything you need in the booking or planning process. Our favorite part is when the couples get to indulge in the interactive culinary experiences that they host multiple times a year! This is where you can try a multitude of menu options and chat with their chef and pastry chef about how to make your reception an absolutely dream!
With as many weddings as they do per year, you can imagine they see A LOT as far as trends coming and going. “We love seeing after parties during reception”, says the team. We love helping our clients incorporate this into their reception! It typically involves some kind of fun late night snack and a different level of entertainment. It is something to consider to surprise your guests with while you’re planning your special day.
Lastly, when asked advice to give couples who are searching for their perfect venue, the Bella Collina team said “your venue is the most memorable piece in the planning journey and the backdrop to your vow exchange. Make sure you fall in love with the venue and feel special throughout the initial stages of booking. Communication is key as it sets the tone for your entire experience”. We couldn’t agree more that the venue sets the tone for the entire planning process!
