Bella Collina was the perfect venue for our classic Italian wedding. Every corner you turn you are transitioned right into Tuscany, Italy. Our guests continue to complement our choice of venue. The wedding team and catering staff are fantastic to work with through the whole process. Day of, they made sure we and our guests were satisfied with our meals and drinks.

Hi Amy, thank you so much for your kind words! We’re delighted to hear that Bella Collina provided the perfect setting for your Italian countryside-inspired wedding and that it wowed your guests. Our team was committed to making your day truly ...
special, and we’re thrilled the wedding and catering teams delivered. Congratulations again! 💙✨
Bella Collina was a dream realized.
From the moment I stepped onto the property, I knew it was the perfect setting for my wedding.
The venue offered everything we desired: superb cuisine, stunning scenery, exceptional staff, and a picturesque lawn. I highly recommend this exceptional venue to any bride seeking an Italian-inspired wedding in Florida.

rgettable. Thank you for recommending us—we're honored to have been part of your love story. Wishing you endless love and happiness!
Bella Collina is a dream venue. The views were amazing, and the vendors we ended up working with were a pleasure to work with. The pros ultimately outweigh the cons and I would choose this place again if I could. The in-house services such as the cake, the staff, etc, were all amazing and the wedding was very stress free.
Cons—planning this wedding was difficult under time constraints. We had 2 months to plan this wedding which was difficult. Pre-approved vendors had no additional cost, but if you wanted to bring a vendor not approved, you had to pay extra. With time constraints and with most of the approved vendors being American and not Indian/Pakistani, which is what this wedding was, that became difficult and we had limited choices.
The other thing that I felt should be improved upon is the lack of bridal/groom suite. Bella Collina is a beautiful country club that prides itself on being a perfect wedding venue, but there is no place for the bride to get ready, and therefore no privacy. You have to rent a suite at additional cost to get ready. I think, for the amount we spend on this venue, we should have a bridal suite to get ready. For me, I had to get ready at home, then drive to the venue 40 minutes away which to me is a hassle.
Ultimately, I did enjoy my wedding overall, but it was quite a learning experience.

The team at Bella Collina is absolutely incredible. They are quick to respond to any inquires, questions, concerns. They are professional, caring, and very detailed! I had my rehearsal dinner and wedding at Bella Collina & both events were flawless. The catering team, Danilla and Taylor, are lovely to work with as you plan your event here. They will make sure every detail is accounted for to make your vision come to life! The catering staff is incredibly attentive and certainly provide an upscale dining experience. Bella Collina is a luxurious venue made to feel like home.

Thank you, Mark, for your glowing review and kind words!
Our wedding day at Bella Collina on 1.2.23 was amazingly beautiful with warm, fresh air that beautified the grounds and enhance the look even more! The rehearsal brunch in the Wine Cellar was so beautiful and helped to set the mood for our wedding day! We too felt that the venue made us feel we had been transported to Italy without leaving Florida. Working with Daniela and Melanie was easy, they answered all our questions and helped us understand the menus. They were communicative and explained the process well. I recommend going to Wedding Bliss to get a feel of what it would be like to have a wedding there. Everyone was courteous, the food service flowed very well, and most importantly, the food was hot and oh so amazing! From the pre-ceremony cocktails (Marilyn Monroes), to the hors d’oeuvres, soup, salad, lamb craving station, desert station, and late night bites, oh my it was all very delicious! They even allowed us to customize our menu with collard greens as an accompaniment to our meal, and everyone continues to rave about how good they were- accolades to the chef and staff!- even a year later people are still talking about it! The staff were all amazing, my guests felt like royalty. I recommend going with their preferred vendors as they know the venue best and can help you truly bring out it’s essence! We love the scenery and how well the venue looked in our photos and just made everything pop. I would chose this venue again! Who knows, maybe a renewal down the road…Clark & Sharese.
Response from the Vendor on 05/06/2024

Thank you for choosing Bella Collina for your wedding day, and we wish you both a lifetime of love and happiness together.
My daughter's wedding was beautiful, and the venue was beautiful. Fortunately, hat cannot be taken away. There were, however, lots of problems, and the staff does not seem to care. They decided to book another event the same day, which we were not aware of until 30 minutes before the wedding, but it complicated things. We thought we had the run of the place, but this was a mistake. When you spend that kind of money, you would think you would not have to compete with another event. We were not able to take pictures outdoors due to that other event, and the guests had to take a different, confusing route to the reception. They had a tractor on the grounds in view of everyone, so we had to skip the sunset pictures. Very attractive. We had their table linens that were either stained or moldy. My daughter was told there would be a safe, private place to change from her wedding gown to her party dress. In that room, where she was told to go, there was no lock on the door, and people kept walking in . At one point, a male staff member walked in while my daughter was disrobed, and he had to be told to leave. Not an, "I am so sorry," and avert the eyes. No. Just the opposite. Had I known, that night that this had happened, there would have been hell to pay. The banquet captain was dressed for a round of golf, which when one is spending in excess of $$76,000, one would expect a bit more professional attire. To top it off, the guy paying the bill-me, ordered the salmon, which was listed on my seating card, and I was given the filet. Small mistake, but par for the course. We brought all these concerns to the catering manager after the event through our wedding planner, and the response back to me was wholly inadequate. Don't let the pretty setting sway you. Have your wedding another pretty place that perhaps genuinly cares about your special day.
If you’re looking for a piece of Italian bliss, Bella Collina is the place for your special day! From the atmosphere to the fine, minute details, everything was set to perfection. The staffs mentality, friendliness, work ethic, and attentiveness to what we wanted out of our wedding was fantastic. Keeping in mind it comes with a price tag and the inflation of weddings, Bella Collina raises its expectations and exceeds the bar along with it. We highly recommend Bella Collina and wanted to give a special thank you to Taylor Tufts. She was incredibly sweet, thorough, and timely through all our communications, especially our lengthy emails. Never once did we feel we were being a bother. She genuinely cared about our planning experience and was determined to help us have the absolute best day ever. 12/10 recommend Bella Collina for your dream wedding!!

She was on top of all the details, made sure every wish was carried out, and to top it off she was so nice to work with. I have been to many wedding and by far this was the best menu and food. Each dish was excellent and the service was the best!!!!!!

Bella Collina is the one of the most beautiful wedding venues I’ve ever come across! I really wanted an Italian wedding and it was exactly that and more! My overall experience with Bella was incredible. The team was very responsive and willing to answer questions while I was deciding on the venue without ever seeing it in person. I did FaceTime calls with them and spent a lot of time discussing menu options. I was not pleased with one of the options and Danilla was fabulous in helping me navigate it. She provided me with additional options and allowed us to do an additional tasting for that option to ensure that we were happy with it. Once wedding day came, everything was amazing! The team was once again so accessible and helpful for the entire day. The food was the best wedding food I’ve EVER had and the portions were very large. The staff all ensured to check in multiple times to ensure that everything was taken care of. Our guests loved the venue and ambiance as well. I heard from many guest about how much they loved the food as well and how great the portions were.
Overall, everything was perfect and I’d 100% have my wedding at Bella Collina again!

Thank you again for your glowing review and for considering Bella Collina for any future celebrations. We'd be honored to welcome you back!
The $50k food and beverage minimum is outrageous to say the least. The venue looks very nice but the pricing is anything but.
Extremely expensive. Quoted for 2023 for $50k food and drink minimum. Add up other fees and taxes and you’re at over a $60k wedding for JUST food/drink/venue. Nothing else. Beautiful venue but unaffordable for most.
Beautiful location but the cost for a Sat wedding is $8000 to rent and for 2023-2024 a $50,000 food and beverage minimum. So many other venues that are stunning for 1/2 that price.
BTW, I can't change the wedding date because it's stuck on April 2022 in this review.
If you are looking for the most romantic, elegant, and breathtaking wedding venue in Florida, look no further than Bella Collina! My husband and I toured and considered at least a dozen wedding venues around Central Florida for our January 2022 wedding, and now that it's over, we could not imagine starting our happily ever after anywhere else. Our entire experience with Bella Collina was outstanding, from beginning to end. Not only was the Senior Catering Coordinator, Danilla, always incredibly friendly, responsive, and helpful, but the big day was absolutely stunning and stress-free. Everyone on the catering and bartending staff was extremely professional and attentive, and the food was spectacular! We are thrilled that we were able to spend the best day of our lives at Bella Collina, and we guarantee that you will be too!
We were married at Bella Collina on 12.11.21 and it was everything we could have hoped for and so much more — an absolute fairytale and dream. We knew we had to get married at Bella Collina as soon as we saw the photos, and the venue was just as perfect in-person. There are infinite views and photo opportunities that are so beautiful and unique. There really is no where else in central Florida like Bella Collina. The event spaces themselves would have been enough for us, but on TOP of that, the food was exceptional and the service was impeccable. We were so surprised by how delicious the hors d'oeuvres, soup, salad, main entrees (especially the braised beef short rib!), and desserts were. The bartenders and servers were wonderful with all of our guests, and we as the bride & groom had someone assigned to us just to ensure we had everything we needed.
One of our guests dropped a glass on the dance floor…the staff at Bella Collina cleaned it up so fast I had no idea until the next day when people started A) telling us how dreamy our wedding was and B) sharing fun stories.
We were also very glad we had a few rooms booked at Siena (so convenient!).
We enjoyed working with Victoria V and Sarah W as our catering points of contact. They answered every question we had and we incredibly helpful! Everything was executed perfectly. Thank you Bella Collina!
Bella Collina is an absolute beauty. There are not enough words to say about how amazing this venue and it's staff are. Everyone was so nice and answered any question I had, and very quickly too! I had my wedding here almost two weeks ago and every single one of my guests said that Bella was stunning and nothing they had ever seen before. I would have never thought that this place was in Florida because once the gates open you feel like you are being transported to a Castle in Italy! Would 100% recommend this venue for a wedding or event you are holding because they will go above and beyond for you! Also the food was amazing too! And heads up the place is beautiful even by itself! Wish I could go back and redo the day all over again!
There are not enough good words to say about Bella Collina!! We fell in love with this venue the moment we stepped out of the car for a tour. Besides the breath taking venue and views, the staff is amazing. Melanie and Danilla were extremely helpful and quick to answer any questions we had and make any changes we requested. Planning a wedding half way across the country was extremely scary for us, but Melanie and Danilla helped us remain calm during the entire process. The catering team allowed us to completely design our own idea of dinner meals and sides as well as replicated my idea of a wedding cake exactly. Three words for the food -- oh. my. gosh!! We chose three different entrees and allowed our guests to pick what they wanted before the wedding and Bella did not disappoint!! So many people told us that the food they had that night was the best "wedding food" they have ever had! We STILL have people talking about how wonderful the food was! Every staff member we encountered was professional, kind and willing to help in any way they could. They treated us like royalty and made sure every thing went smoothly from the moment we booked until the end of our wedding. We didn't have a single issue our whole wedding day and I know Bella Collina had something to do with that! Everything was absolutely perfect!! Thank you Bella Collina -- our wedding was more than we could have ever imagined!!
I must start by extending a sincere thank you to both Victoria and Lyric for all that they each did to make my daughter's wedding a truly beautiful success. First and foremost they went above and beyond with flexibility and changes associated with Covid. Nonetheless, our event was breathtaking. We were all so pleased with their level of service and understanding throughout the entire process, including re-scheduling one entire year later. In addition, I must compliment the entire staff on presenting a seamless, elegant event. Everything from the welcome Champagne to the ceremony, cocktails, reception, and departure goodies, were all top level, delicious and professionally presented. Our guests came from all over and most of them commented that this was the nicest wedding they had ever been to. The venue was immaculate and beautiful. I can wholeheartedly recommend them. They WILL EXCEED your expectations. One final comment that I cannot leave out; Having the Siena at Bella Collina just down the street was an amazing compliment to the event. Our guests all stayed at these beautiful luxury condominiums for two to three nights, and we had two smaller events there in the cozy banquet room. It is situated on Lake Siena. The facilities and condos are stunning and brand new, and it truly made a wonderful first impression. Thanks again to Johnny and Michelle!
Our wedding at Bella Collina was more perfect than we could have ever imagined. From the beginning, Lyric, Melanie, Victoria, & Katelyn were all so quick and responsive to any and all questions. Lyric is such a wonderful, kind person to work with for catering! During the wedding the wait staff were so helpful, attentive and also so friendly. They did such a wonderful job! We were so nervous we could barely eat, so a meal was packed up for us at the end of the night. I could not recommend this venue more! Thank you for making our dream wedding a reality.

Hello Samantha!
Thank you for taking the time to leave us this review. We're so glad we got to host your big day and you were pleased with our services. Congratulations!
Celebrated our parents 50th Wedding Anniversary at BC ! What an amazing experience and venue. Why fly hundreds of guests to Tuscany when you can take a short trip to Monteverde. The food, service, warmth, and coordinator flexibility far exceeded our expectation. A big thank you to Lyric, Victoria, and Melanie. Our parents were able to create memories that were just not possible for them 50 years ago. Thank You !

Hi Mark,
We're thrilled you and your parents were pleased with our venue and outstanding service team. Happy 50th Anniversary!
We had the perfect wedding thanks to Bella Collina!!! Danilla and her team were incredible and amazing to work with. The scenery was breathtaking, the staff was so detail oriented, and the food was delicious. Every single corner of this property is stunning and every single staff member we interacted with was friendly and helpful. The catering team and cake designer were excellent and we were so impressed! Trevor rang the bell for ceremony and was super kind and helpful when he escorted us and the photographers around the property for wedding pictures. Overwhelmed with how perfect our experience was! Thank you!

Hi Sarah! Thank you for taking the time to leave us this review. We're honored we got to be the backdrop to your big day. We're thrilled you were pleased with our venue and service team all around. Congratulations!
My dream wedding came true because of Bella Collina. After an unexpected wedding day surprise, their quick thinking and fantastic team brought to life my dream wedding with the most important person, My Person. If you are on the fence, maybe I can help.
Before Bella, I visited at least eight venues in the SE. In the end, it was between Bella or a venue in another FL city. The other venue was great but they could not touch the overall of Bella’s immaculate venue, team, and transparency. The other venue asked me who their competition was that had me on the fence. I told them, and they said, “Bella is gorgeous and, if we must, we would rather lose to them than any other venue.” That speaks volumes, in my opinion.
Honestly, I was nervous signing. I was about to try to plan a wedding from hundreds of miles away. From the beginning to the end, Bella made me feel at ease and put aside any worries.
They are a straightforward yet cheerful venue. I loved Melanie; she was calm, reserved, and lovely. She answered all of my tons of questions. Plus, Melanie went above and beyond, connecting with the best wedding planner for my needs. Thank you, Melanie!
Bella is transparent. They were upfront about their costs, terms, and preferred vendors. Their contract is easy to refer back to in case you needed to provide information or refresh yourself.
The Catering Staff is terrific. I first met with the Cake master. She had excellent ideas and worked with me to figure out how to incorporate dairy and nondairy into a small piece for the cake cutting. Also, Danilla is wonderful. She was always kind and helpful. She took the time to figure out what I wanted and ensured it met my standards, and provided fantastic suggestions.
The food was beyond excellent! Everyone raved from the Brunch Rehearsal to the reception dinner. One of my guests asked for a peach mimosa because she knew I liked those. Before I knew it, a peach mimosa was in my hand. Bella went hunting for the necessary peach to make it great. I was surprised; it is the little things that go a long way. That kind gesture meant the world to me. It probably was not a big deal for them to get, but it was to me. I want that level of detail and service with a venue at any event, no matter how large or small, and Bella Collina came through every time.
They have the best Wedding Day team. My Wedding Day turned into beyond my perfect dream. I was worried about the rain, and when I say I was concerned, a few days before, we had rain appearing on weather apps and disappearing. It disappeared the night before my wedding, and on my wedding day; everyone was delighted. With less than 2 hours before guests arriving, the rain cloud came out of nowhere. Bella quickly, along with my wedding planner, jumped into action. They do not host weddings in a specific part of the venue anymore (understandable why not). However, they asked me if they could move my ceremony there instead of the usual backup rain location. It was my exact dream spot on their property I always wanted. My original outdoor location was beyond exquisite, but that one area on their property reminded me of something special in my life. Their kindness and willingness to let me move it to that exact location gave me my beyond perfect dream wedding at Bella and my beyond perfect day with My Person. They made it a dream from day one but made it beyond a dream on my Wedding Day.

Bella Collina is absolutely beautiful and breathtaking. We were amazed first time we went to look at the venue and knew immediately this was it for us. Our Wedding was everything we imagined it would be and more. Thank you Danilla, she was very accommodating, helpful, and professional throughout the whole process. Thank you to the entire wedding and events team for everything.

Hi Renee! Thank you so much for choosing us as your venue on your big day. Your wedding was absolutely stunning and we enjoyed having you guys!
Just celebrated my daughter’s wedding at The Club at Bella Collina and couldn’t be more happy. The venue itself is breathtakingly beautiful and as soon as you drive on the property you feel like you’ve been transported to a villa in Tuscany. Every nook and cranny reveals an amazing photo opp and the views with the perfectly manicured grounds are spectacular . I can’t say enough about the set up, food and level of service the day of the event - it was outstanding- many thanks to our catering coordinator, Lyric. I’d also like to thank Johnny at Siena at Bella Collina for helping us secure top-notch accommodations that were both comfortable and convenient. Many of our guests said this was the best wedding they ever attended and we are thankful to those team members at Bella Collina who worked so hard to make my daughter’s wedding dreams come true.

Hi Barbara! We're so glad your daughter's wedding was a success and you enjoyed your experience at our venue! It was a beautiful day and we were honored she chose us!
Look no further, this is the most magical venue in all the Central Fl Land, and this is coming from a bride that was originally supposed to be married at Disney. Danilla and the entire catering team made our wedding day absolute perfection. Every little detail about our day was perfect from the delicious food, to our beautiful cake. Danilla was so responsive and flexible during our entire wedding process given we got married during Covid. This venue is splendid and truly you will feel like the world has stopped the day of your wedding. We got to enjoy our wedding day and take in all the beauty because of this team. Cannot thank you all enough. Thanks for making our dream wedding happen! Xoxo

Hi Alyssa! Thank you so much for your kind review. We're so happy we got to be a part of your dream wedding!
First of all.. I'm writing this review for all of the future brides planning a wedding and trying to decide whether bella is the right place for you. To put a long story short..ABSOLUTELY! So, I got engaged in December 2019 with plans for a wedding in 2020. However, Covid happened and turned all of our worlds upside down as you can imagine!! I found bella collina coincidentally on the knot and decided to go visit!! When you arrive and see this place you will be stunned at the beauty initially!! What made us ultimately decide was not just the beauty of the place but the staff!!! I worked with Melanie, Danilla, and victoria who helped to make the process as smooth as ever despite dealing with covid and all of my concerns!! Covid is a real thing and i thought maybe i'm crazy to plan a wedding let alone host one during a pandemic!! However, the process stressed me out but these ladies helped me out and communicated well and answered all of my questions no matter how anxious i was and made me feel at ease with everything they were doing to keep people safe on their end!! I could not be more pleased with the way the wedding turned out!! My day was SPECTACULAR..and it was because of the staff and lemme tell you.. the food was SLAMMING!! We discussed food options with the head chef and also did a cake tasting with the head baker. They listened to our recommendations and made the necessary changes and were so accommodating!! This is coming from a family of haitian and puerto ricans so if EVERYONE tells me the food and cake were amazing.. then they truly were!! I am so grateful to everyone at Bella for all of their hard work and for exceeding my expectations!! If you are considering bella.. don't think just do it because it's all worth it.. every penny!! This staff did amazing and I will never forget my wedding day because of it!!

Bella Collina is absolutely stunning !! The first time I visited the venue I knew I didn't have to look any further. The staff was so friendly and helped us with literally every single detail throughout the planning process. They recommended all of our vendors, which were amazing, and ensured everything went smoothly on our big day. We honestly could not have been happier with our experience with Bella Collina <3 Wishing I could do it all over again!

Bella Collina Venue is a dream come true, we had the most amazing wedding day thanks to the Bella team. The scenery was amazing and the food was fantastic. It was scheduled to rain on our wedding day and they did everything they could to still make our day special. Thank you Danilla, from the moment me and my husband met her she was great! We will definitely host other events at this venue in the near future. Thanks Bella!
Love,
Francina & JR Rhymes

Bella Collina is so dreamy. I fell in love from the moment I took a tour. My wedding was so magical. I couldn’t imagine it any other place. The guests were amazed at the beauty of the scenery. It truly feels like you’re in Italy. The food is also to die for. I would recommend this venue to any couples looking for a romantic location.

Hi Maria, thank you so much for leaving us a review! We're honored you were pleased with our services for your wedding day. We hope to see you back soon!
Bella collina is hands down the best venue I’ve ever worked with. We were booked at Disney world for our 10 year vow renewal, but 42 days out they cancelled us due to the pandemic. We were devastated and panicking. That’s when I stumbled upon Bella Collina on google and then they were recommended to me by my videographer and officiant. After contacting them I immediately loved the responsiveness and kindness of Melanie. We scheduled a site visit and Victoria showed us the grounds. We instantly fell in love and booked. Danilla the catering manager was so attentive and we chatted often. She was so understanding when some of our guests could no longer make it and helped us choose options to fill our budget. The pricing was amazing. And there were bonuses for booking when we did. I could not believe how accommodating they were and how many added bonuses we got. The food was amazing and the head pastry chef Ely Nave carried out my cake vision even better than I had dreamed. The desserts were out of this world. The staff was so attentive and kind. They even packed up some things for us to go as a surprise because they knew as the bride and groom we were so busy running around that we didn’t get to eat as much as we would have liked. I truly feel it was meant to be and that my wedding would not have been as magical anywhere else as it was at Bella Collina. I can’t thank them enough for the most amazing day ever.

We got married at Bella Collina in September 2019. When we first went to check out the venue we were blown away, this place is right out of Tuscany and gave us the Italian vibes we never knew we needed all hidden away right outside of Orlando. The wedding team was absolutely amazing, from the beginning they worked with us to make everything perfect and gave me great ease at such a stressful time. They truly know what they are doing and they do it well! We used a wedding planner at the Club named Vangie De La Concha and she was incredible! She has such amazing taste, professionalism, and really saw my vision and made it come true. She also provided the flowers, for the Ceremony and Reception and I highly recommend going that route as you will not be disappointed. Danilla was our contact for the menu, she also was amazing and listened to what we needed and the Food was incredible. We had our Cocktail Hour in the Wine Cellar- it was such a nice way to get out of the heat and was a nice touch to the Italian Villa. We had our reception at the reflection pond because It was a smaller wedding and our guests were blown away. The place is gorgeous. If you are considering booking here, do yourself a favor and do it! I will be nothing short of a Fairytale wedding!

Hi there! Thank you so much for your review. We're so happy you chose us for your wedding day!
"How is this even Florida?" and "It's like we're in Italy..." and comments to that effect are all that we heard from our guests on our wedding day.
Bella Collina was an amazing venue in so many ways - from our first visit, the catering and sales team made my then-fiance and I feel so special, and on our wedding day, they were incredibly attentive to detail and on top of everything. They worked with our vendors to make sure the day went flawlessly. Our guests were so pleased with the waiters and bar staff, and everyone loved the food.
On top of all of that, it's gorgeous on its own and offers more than any other wedding venue in Florida with a variety of options for your ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. It's on the pricier side, but you totally get what you pay for, including a super fun tasting event showing off all that they can do for you on your wedding day.

Hi Kelsey!
Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. We’re so happy you were pleased with Bella Collina. We were honored to be a part of your big day!
We got married at Bella Collina November 2019. From our initial appointment we were blown away from the moment we drove up the the venue. It truly takes your breath away! The wedding team were absolutely amazing. They were always available to answer questions and were extremely attentive. They truly took the stress out of wedding planning. Our actual wedding day was something out of a fairytale. We stayed at the condos and the house the night before and the facilities were gorgeous. We had a room for the bridal parties before the wedding and there was a round of drinks provided along with snacks. There was a butler in the room as well that handled whatever you could need. Guests got a champagne toast on arrival. The food was out of this world! The wait staff was absolutely amazing and attentive to all guests. the wait staff helped our grandparents get to the elevator and were extremely attentive to their needs being they are in wheelchairs. They provided a non alcohol beer for my husband (since he is unable to drink) per our request and special ordered it. Those are just some things off hand the list goes on and on on the special and remarkable things they did for us. They also invite the couples to an evening of wedding bliss complementary before their wedding. They put on a whole event to try the menu and experience a wedding a Bella Collina before your big day. My husband and I felt like a king and queen for a night it truly was amazing. We had our ceremony in the atrium, cocktail hour at the reflection pond, and reception on the event lawn. It truly was amazing having the three separate spaces and each one was equally as gorgeous. Danilla handled most of our questions and wedding details and she was AMAZING! Do not look any further book this venue it truly is a fairytale venue!

BEST wedding venue ever. Bella Collina was a dream come true for my husband and I. The property is absolutely stunning. The staff goes above and beyond to make sure your event is perfect. We unfortunately had rain on our wedding day, but Bella Collina did everything in their power to make sure everything went on without a hitch. This meant so much to me . I’m so happy we got married here and I hope we can come back one day to renew our vows!

Hi Victoria! We're so happy we could be a part of your big day. Thank you for the review!
Moments before the ceremony was scheduled to begin, we were in our separate locker rooms, guests were beginning to arrive, and a typical FL storm decided to make an appearance. At this point, most venues would have made the rain call and moved the ceremony inside. However, the Bella Collina team knew how important the outdoor ceremony was to us and instead, they tarped the entire ceremony area. The ceremony started about 10 minutes later than scheduled, but everything was dry, the sky was blue, and we didn’t miss a beat. We actually had no idea that it even rained at all. We cannot express our gratitude enough for how well the vendors and the Bella Collina team pulled this off for us.
Every single thing about our wedding experience at the Bella Collina was amazing. The staff was thoughtful, responsive, and accommodating throughout the entire experience. The venue was absolutely stunning. Outside you could not ask for a more picturesque atmosphere. The lighting inside created the perfect ambiance for a reception. A wide range of food and drinks were available and each dish tasted amazing. We wanted to have it all.
Bella Collina has a lot to offer for every type of wedding and our wedding day was dreamy.

Hello Kelsey,
Thank you so much for leaving us such a glowing review! We wish you a lifetime of joy.
From the second we stepped foot on Bella Collina property, we knew we weren’t going to look any further for our dream wedding venue! Once you pass the front gate, you feel like you are driving through a Tuscan vineyard! Being one of the highest points in Florida, Bella Collina actually has a beautiful view, which is extremely rare to find in Florida so that definitely sets them apart from other venues. All of our guests kept telling us it was the most gorgeous venue they have ever been to! The food is amazing, the atmosphere is unforgettable, and the people who work there go out of their way to make sure your day is everything you hoped for....especially Danilla & Melanie! Thank you Bella Collina for helping us plan a wedding we will never forget!

Hi Kelly, Thank you for the amazing review! Your wedding was beautiful and we're thrilled you loved it.
The Bella Collina Clubhouse Team is so amazing and professional. From the first time that we met with them to take a tour of the venue, they were so flexible and welcoming! We knew that was the place for us without a single doubt, not only is it probably the most beautiful place in Central Florida but they have a team just as awesome. The team went above and beyond for us on our wedding day, my husband and I felt like royalty. It was the most magical day of my life, thanks to them. Catering & Banquet team were AMAZING, their service was over the top!!! From Danilla, Victoria, and to the sales team. Also the day of our wedding, the assigned butlers and the servers were just WOW!! So cordial, friendly and helpful. Our vision for our dream wedding, was multiplied times 10!! Thank you Bella Collina Team!!!

Hello Erin, Thank you for leaving us a review. Your big day was absolutely beautiful and we loved being a part of it!
It was the best decision to have a wedding at Bella Collina and we couldn’t be any happier. The minute I saw the place, I knew right away this was the one. The place is gorgeous and you will never find anything like this in Orlando, FL area. The staff was on point, good at communicating and kept you updated at all times. From the catering team, management, set up crew, servers, and just everyone involved, they all played an intricate role. The food was delicious and the desserts were exactly what we asked for. We got so many compliments from our guests about the venue and food which goes to show how well they are able for execute and stand by their quality. We couldn’t thank them enough for everything they did for us.

Hello Nana,
Thank you so much for leaving us a review and for letting us be a part of your big day!
The venue is unbelievably gorgeous and feels like you are in the mountains of Tuscany! We had our wedding at Bella 3 weeks ago and had a great experience working with the team, catering and coordinators. They provide you with a list of approved vendors, which made the process of wedding planning seamless and created seamless execution the day of the wedding because all of the vendors have worked together before and know the ins and outs of Bella Collina. Our guests were blown away by the food, service and beauty of Bella Collina (and so were my husband and I =) If you are considering this venue I HIGHLY recommend visiting because you will instantly fall in love.

Words cannot describe how perfect this venue was for our wedding! The staff was absolutely wonderful and such a pleasure to deal with during the entire planning process. Our guests raved about the food and the flaming donuts bar was a nice special touch that our guests loved. As far as the venue, it speaks for itself! Our guests felt like they were in a different country and could not stop raving about how beautiful the grounds were! As soon as I saw this venue, I knew I had to get married here and I am so glad we did! I highly recommend The Club at Bella Collina for your wedding - you will not be disappointed!

Talk about a DREAM COME TRUE. Not only is Bella Collina a drop dead gorgeous venue, but the entire staff was so friendly, accommodating and professional throughout the planning process. The moment we pulled up, I knew I wanted to get married there, it's such a picturesque, well-kept place, how could you not?! The day of my wedding everything went SO smooth, thanks to their amazing team! Special thanks to Danilla and Dana who we worked with a lot to make everything come to life. After the wedding, my husband and I received tons of compliments about how gorgeous everything was and how delicious Bella Collina's food is. Such top notch service and staff! There's no better wedding venue out there, and you most definitely get what you paid for, plus a lifetime of special memories. Stunning place, I just don't have enough words to explain how perfect my wedding was, THANK YOU BELLA COLLINA for my dream wedding. XO
Response from the Vendor on 11/04/2019
Congratulations on your marriage and thank you for leaving us such a beautiful review!
This is an absolutely gorgeous venue to have a wedding at. Unfortunately, we did not experience an equal caliber of customer service.
Throughout the planning process, it was incredibly difficult to get any sort of reply from someone at the venue. As soon as we signed the contract, all communication went downhill. In most cases, it took at least a week to get an email back and nobody ever answered the phone in the wedding department. When we did speak with someone, they were nice and professional. The level of communication just needs to be drastically improved. I often had to send at least one follow up email before getting a reply.
There were a few problems on our wedding day as well. We found out about 15 minutes prior to our reception that our cake topper was not able to be put on the cake. We were never asked about the size or weight of our cake topper prior to the wedding. I would have appreciated knowing that the cake wasn't able to support a cake topper before spending $150 on a beautiful cake topper that was sat next to the cake on the table in the end. In addition to that, we paid a bit extra to have a top tier to keep for our first anniversary. When we got the top tier back, it was in pieces in the box, separated by wooden dowels.
Prior to the ceremony, there was a male worker at the venue (I don't know his position) that told my husband and his groomsmen that their outfits looked bad without jackets and the boutonnieres did not look good on them with those outfits. He decided to say this to them right before they were to walk down the aisle.
Finally, I was trying to give my dad the wedding gift I got for him (custom cufflinks) before we walked down the aisle. He came to the locker room where I was getting ready so I could give him the gift, and the young attendant in the locker room told him he could not come in. We were all dressed and there were no other women in the locker room that were not from the wedding. Our male photographer was allowed inside, and when my dad inquired about this he was told that men are only allowed in the women's locker room when they are taking photos. Eventually, she let him in, but it kind of soured an important moment.
The pros about this venue are that it is an absolutely gorgeous place. You and your guests will feel as though you have gone to Tuscany. The locker rooms to get ready in are amazing as well. The food was not bad, and the bubbles package was great. My guests had mimosas with four different choices of juice from cocktail hour to the end of our brunch reception. This would be a five star review if it weren't for the customer service that we experienced.
Magical and romantic venue. Top knotch. Staff is great and responsive.
Bella is a dream come true. I always have such high expectations and feel like they can never be met, and this venue exceeded everything. I worked hand in hand with Danilla and she was on it! Her response time is amazing, and they truly make you feel like a special bride and that your day will be handled at its finest.
Even on the day of my wedding, my hair and makeup girl cancelled on me, and they called two people to come onsite at the spa and they got me in right away and made be feel beautiful, and were so accommodating, we also rented out the executive house and that made our weekend with family and friends a weekend to remember.
They have the best customer service that is 5 star, the venue is 5 star, the food is 5 star, I booked this place blind w/o even visiting and my first trip for wedding bliss, I was blown away, my coworkers and family kept saying that our wedding was like the royal wedding and asking how I found this place. It truly was the most perfect wedding weekend as we traveled from Ohio, and I wish I could relive that day for years to come, it truly was heaven. So thank you.
This venue is absolutely breathtaking! From the moment we first visit, we fell in love. Our guests could not believe such a gem exists in the middle of central Florida. All of the staff, from planning to catering, was so kind and helpful. Highly recommend!

Bella Collina was everything I didn't know I needed. The venue is stunning and I get compliments from anyone who sees my wedding photos. Lauren and Danilla were life-savers and really cared about making our big day the best ever. I couldn't imagine getting married without them and I couldn't imagine getting married anywhere else. Worth every penny!

Absolutely gorgeous venue! The staff is very helpful, professional, and on top of their service. All our guests loved the venue! The service and food is impeccable. The locker room to get ready in is stunning and comes in handy on the wedding day. We were served breakfast, lunch, and complimentary champagne while we were getting ready. The entire venue is beautiful and very photographic.

Hi Amy! Thank you for leaving us a review! We are honored. Congratulations again on your marriage.
Bella Collina was the dream wedding venue, and is worth every penny. My husband and I got engaged in Italy and knew we wanted to have an Italian themed wedding so when we found Bella we knew immediately that it was where we wanted to get married. The customer service from the day we completed our tour, to the actual wedding day, was always very professional and nothing but super helpful. Dana worked with us to create a custom menu, and the guests are still talking about how amazing the food was. We were one of the unlucky couples that experienced rain on our wedding day, and I was originally really bummed. However, they turned the ballroom into what looked like a small chapel with the big windows and the guests had no idea that was the backup plan. Then they were able to quickly turn the ballroom into our reception space and it was a flawless execution. The atrium is a perfect location for your big exit, and they have also many places in the area for the perfect photo opportunity. If you do go with Bella, I highly recommend Andrea from Wedding Unique as your day-of planning and Rhodes Studio as your photographer. They do a lot of weddings at Bella and that really helps make the day go smoothly and they have ideas you would have never imagined. Thank you so much to the staff at Bella Collina for making our day perfect!

Amanda, we absolutely enjoyed every moment of planning with you. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your celebration. Please keep in touch and visit us again soon! Best regards, Dana
Upon our first viewing on the venue we were absolutely floored. It was our number one pick. Unfortunately, I don’t at all feel we received the same customer service as some of the other reviews. It was virtually impossible to reach our sales associate. The day of our tour we were unsure of where to find the office, called the front desk and got no answer. After we saw how gorgeous the venue was we thought for sure this would be our pick, but when we tried to return it seemed to be impossible to make an appointment. I mentioned our guides name at the front gate and we were turned away. For the price of this venue I would expect the customer service to be absolutely astounding. In comparison to some of the other venues we’ve toured, we were truly disappointment. If you’re willing to compromise your relationship with the team, the beauty of the venue might be worth it (on the exterior, we were actually not all that impressed with the ballroom). It wasn’t something we were willing to jeopardize.
Response from the Vendor on 02/16/2018

Where do I even begin? This place is heaven. You truly do walk into this venue and feel like you went to Italy and back without even whipping out your passport. Every little inch of this venue is stunning. What's even more impressive is the customer service, Stacey, Gina, Dana, Melanie, and Corina have been the most amazing people to work before, during, and even after the wedding! They were always getting back to me so quickly and have such a great way of making each couple feel like they're the most important couple in the room. When you get married here, purchase the extra hours because you'll never want your night to end! In fact, if I could ever afford it I would plan to remarry my new hubby there once every year or maybe even twice a year just to get to do it again and again. Right when I thought it couldn't get any better, it did. I was greeted by Lauren, the most amazing day-of helper at the venue and she took away any fear I had, reassured me, wiped every happy tear so my makeup wouldn't smear, she made sure I ate, and always had a beverage in hand. She was the most accommodating and comforting woman I've ever met in my life. The whole staff the night off and even at the brunch the day before was incredible and memorable! Thank you Bella Collina for fulfilling my childhood dream of the most perfect wedding!! I'll never forget our special day.

Thank you for the review, Lindsay! We are so glad to hear you enjoyed your wedding day with us. We hope you come back and visit us again soon.
Growing up in Florida, I never knew anything like Bella Collina existed. It is beyond expectations. We were planning our wedding from out of state, and they made the process so incredibly easy! They were always easily accessible and fast to respond. Payments were easy and stress free (we often switched between check, credit card and there were never any issues). The food was phenomenal. They were great at catering to our desire to have some southern flair in our wedding. The venue is to die for. You don't need much other decorations because of how beautiful the venue is. All of our guests were in awe of the beauty of the venue. I could t have picked a. Enter place to say I do!
