About Four Seasons Hotel Firenze
Four Seasons Hotel Firenze occupies the Palazzo della Gherardesca and a former convent around the Giardino della Gherardesca, the largest private garden in Florence. It is the city's wedding address for an Indian family of 80 to 200 that wants a garden ceremony inside the walls and Renaissance rooms for the dinner; the hotel publishes no chart, and capacities are confirmed on enquiry.
Panigrahana designs the garden for the pheras and the palazzo's salons for dinner, within a heritage house's rules on rigging and flame.
