Honestly can't recommend Casani enough. My wife and I booked Casani for our wedding this past weekend and it was pure magic. Everyone in the staff was next level and really came through with planning for this event. I don't think it is possible to have a better venue to have a wedding. The amenities are great and leave so much room for creative decor. Not to mention the stunning views all around the venue, any photo opportunity you can ask for is at casani.
If you are thinking of renting the cabins, DO IT! The grooms cabin pre wedding made it fun and easy to relax but after the event having a place to stay close by was amazing. We had the wedding party stay on site after the wedding and the party kept going. Memories I will always cherish

Back in August 2023, me and my Wife were searching for a wedding Venue for us to get married during October 2023 (!). We ended up coming across the Wedding Expo at the Orange County Convention Center. When we went, we were stunned by the amount of choices there were. The very first venue we approached was Casani Estates. There we met Carmen and her Husband Mike, when we sat down and spoke about the Venue, Carmen told us that if we come to Casani that there would be no place like it, after going back and forth about the distance we thought about it, but than we said, why not give it a shot? We setup an appointment with Carmen and went the very next day after the Convention.
It was much more impressive than we expected, this is a World Class property that captures your attention upon entering the front gate, all the way to the long Driveway Drive to get to the property itself. The closer you get in this property everything gets better. Carmen and her assistant were very gracious to me, my wife, and my mother when we went to visit. Carmen had a lot of good ideas, and a long list of vendors that we could work with. There we met our wedding planner Morgan through Carmen and she herself was amazing.
When the time finally approached to get married, everything went exactly as planned, and even better than promised. I recommend Casani not only because it’s a World Class property but because the service you get from the owners is second to none, how many Venues can you go to that you can say that the actual Owners have time and interest invested in the product? I would 100% do another event here down the road, what are you waiting for? Book now and enjoy the best day of your life!

Carmen and her event planning team 'I Do Elopments and Events' did an absolute stunning job, helping me and my husband plan the perfect micro wedding.
We had just picked our wedding date (with only a month 1/2 to plan) Carmen immediately got to work and helped us figure out all of the immediate steps to getting married. Carmen and her team where very helpful through very decision and made the whole process so easy.
Carmen and her amazing team made my day as stress free as possible. I will be recommending all upcoming brides of this amazing team and estate. I could see how hard working everyone is and it really showed in the atmosphere, I could really see how much heart and love that Carmen puts in to her Venue and that is something that truly sets this Venue apart.
Thank you so much, I will cherish the memories we had at this gorgeous venue.
With love,
Emily & Cody Byers

Literally my favorite place on Earth! I got married here in February of 2023. I book it the spring before (maybe April) so I had about 10 mos of wedding planning. During that time, I had countless conversations about literally everything with the fabulous Carmen and about 3 or 4 visits to the venue not including the initial tour for various parts of planning. From the moment we toured the venue, we knew it was THE ONE. Every single inch of the property is just stunning inside and out. Carmen was beyond sweet, knowledgeable, caring, helpful and fun! She danced at my wedding and I even have pictures of her and her husband in the photo booth. Speaking of her hubby, Mike is super awesome as well! The day of my wedding he checked on me to see if there was anything I needed and to see how I was doing. Every time I visited the venue he was hard at work making things more and more perfect. Any time I needed guidance or talked off a ledge, Carmen had a solution. I had a fantastic wedding planner but Carmen was the real MVP. Fast forward to my wedding weekend.. I got married on a Sunday but I stayed the night before and the night of in one of the super adorable cabins on the property (I wish I was still there). It was just absolutely peaceful and the perfect way to spend my weekend. I woke up my wedding morning and had a great massage in a beautiful setting then had the best day of my life. Everyone at Casani worked really hard and made sure everything was perfect and went off without a hitch. We were taken great care of starting with wine and charcuterie and then sent away with two Casani toasting glasses as a keepsake as well as a million wonderful memories and two new family members. We love Carmen, Mike and Casani so much that 1. we waited in line to see them at a wedding expo even though we already had them booked, 2. I keep trying to get a job there so I can hang out there with them literally all the time lol and 3. I'm trying to come up with an annual event excuse just so I can go back and do this all over again. If you are thinking of going for a tour or booking an event DO IT (and invite me)!!!! You will not regret it. I relive that weekend over and over every single day. This is not a paid endorsement, I'm just really that obsessed. I will take payment in quality time at Casani however haha! See picture of us having the time of our life lakefront.

A dream come true. The scenery is peaceful, tranquil, simply STUNNING. It’s so beautiful you hardly need much to decorate it, I made all our decorations by hand. The wide open layout, the sky, the sunset, the reflection of it on the water, incredible. That’s just the tip on the iceberg. Carmen was so flexible and helpful throughout our journey of putting together a wedding within six months, she had vendor recommendations that were game changing. Not only that, but she married us herself! She did it in such a tender and magical way. Carmen went above and beyond to make us feel at home! Major TIP: Julia Vivian is the BEST day of coordinator you could imagine, she’s genius. We got married during golden hour, took photos during sunset, and danced during the cool night time after sunset. We cherish and so deeply appreciate every moment. Our wedding day was just dreamy, goofy and comfy, unbelievable. You can not find a better place to make the best memories of a lifetime with your love, especially with Carmen at the head of it all.

I recently had my wedding at the beautiful Casani Estates Venue, and we were treated exceptionally well from the day we first visited the space until the end of the celebration. The venue is absolutely stunning and provided the perfect backdrop for our special day.
From the moment we arrived for our initial tour, the staff at Casani Estates was incredibly accommodating and helpful. They took the time to listen to our vision and provided valuable suggestions to make our wedding truly memorable. Their attention to detail and willingness to go above and beyond to meet our needs was truly commendable.
On the day of the wedding, everything was flawlessly executed. The staff was attentive, friendly, and always ready to assist us and our guests. They ensured that every aspect of the event ran smoothly, allowing us to relax and enjoy the festivities without any worries.
The team at Casani Estates Venue truly understands the importance of exceptional customer service. They were responsive to our questions and concerns throughout the planning process, and their professionalism and dedication were evident in every interaction. It was evident that they genuinely cared about making our wedding day perfect, and we couldn't be happier with the results.
The venue itself is breathtaking. The picturesque surroundings, well-maintained gardens, and elegant architecture added a touch of sophistication to our wedding. The indoor space was beautifully decorated and provided a warm and inviting atmosphere for our guests.
Overall, I highly recommend Casani Estates Venue to anyone looking for a beautiful and well-managed venue for their special occasion. The staff's professionalism, attentiveness, and genuine care for their clients make them stand out. Our wedding day was everything we had hoped for and more, thanks to the incredible team at Casani Estates Venue.

Casani Esates we just want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for helping to make our wedding day beyond wonderful!! From the first time we met with you to discuss prices and options to our wedding day, we were always confident that we had picked the best place to hold our wedding\reception. We were thoroughly impressed with the personalized and courteous attention given to us, a refreshing change from some of the other sites we had visited in the area. I cannot express how Mrs. Carmen took care of us like we were family. You will not be disappointed with the care and or views of this place truly magical! Thank you Casani Estates for making our day magical! Should be the number one place to get married in Central Florida!
Sincerely The Roberts 💕

GO SEE THE VENUE! The pictures don’t do justice to Casani Estates. This was the first venue I seen and the minute I stepped on this property it felt like a piece of heaven tucked away. I always wanted a backyard style wedding with a twist of farm and Casani Estates checked off all those boxes and more. The entire day of my wedding I had guest complimenting me on finding this venue. Carmen, the owner, is phenomenal to work with. She was always so enthusiastic to help with any questions I had. The day of the wedding she not only there to help but from the beginning of the day reminded me to breathe. Not one time through out the wedding process was Carmen not there to guide me, answer all my questions and remind me that my day was going to be beautiful! My wedding was everything I wanted it to be and more. So happy that my husband and I went with Casani Estates to celebrate the most beautiful day of our life.

Looking for the PERFECT wedding venue? Look no further!!! Casani Estates in Groveland, FL is definitely where you want to host your next event.
I recently had my wedding here in September and it was the best experience ever!! For starters, Mrs. Carmen the owner was absolutely amazing! She is very professional and personably. Once I booked with her she was literally there through the entire ride with me. She will assist in finding vendors if needed and will help in anyway she possibly can.
The venue is absolutely gorgeous! For a better choice of words it’s BREATHTAKING, and that’s exactly why I canceled my first venue I found a couple of months prior to stumbling upon this gem !!
Every inch of the property is perfect for photos. I highly recommend a company with a drone, to get great shots of the scenery. I loved how the property had cabins available for a little extra (totally worth it) to accommodate the wedding couple and any guest who may need to stay.
I can literally go on and on, but you catch the drift! Book you a tour to see it for yourself, and don’t hesitate to Book your event! 💕
Again, thanks Carmen and the Casani estates fam for hosting my wedding!

Where do I even begin to explain how easy and wonderful the process of having my wedding at Casani Estates was? The owner, Carmen, is an incredible person and made the entire process so seamless and personal. She answered all of our questions, was patient, accommodating, flexible, and so so kind. We were able to use the property for our engagement pictures and stopped by a few times to view the property during the planning phase and was always available when were visited to answer questions. She recommended vendors to us and we used the caterer (Haute Eats Catering) she recommended and they were also wonderful.
The venue, including the bridal suite, was always immaculate and beautiful. My husband and I had to plan our wedding in 3 months as he is heading into the Military. Even though we were on such a time crunch, Carmen in all her grace, made planning so much easier for us by how accommodating she was.
The day of our wedding, our plan A and plan B were unfortunately altered due to a fierce storm. The large Pavilion though was able to fit all of our tables and chairs and extras into the covered space and accommodated for the sudden changes. The venue is so versatile that no matter what the day brings, it can easily be transformed into dream setting.
I wouldn't change a thing and I cannot thank Carmen and all of the venue's caretakers for their help in making our day so special, despite all of the chaos! Casani Estates and Carmen will forever hold a special place in our hearts and we will absolutely be back in the future when we welcome our newest addition into the world in November as we feel like family now <3
Thank you Casani Estates!

"This is the most beautiful event venue I have seen! The views of the estate are breathtaking. I can just see the photography scenery in my mind once I hire a professional as everywhere you turn the backgrounds are spectacular for props and such. They even have cabins they are getting ready for overnight guests in case you have family coming from out of town/state! First class all the way, or if you want mix a little rustic in your event you can do that too!"
