The Best Phoenix, AZ Wedding Venue For a Tuscan Wedding, From an Arizona Wedding Videographer

If you’ve been dreaming of an Italian countryside wedding but aren’t quite ready to pack your entire guest list onto an international flight—deep breath, I got you.

Encanterra Country Club is the hidden gem of Phoenix wedding venues that straight-up feels like you’ve stepped into Tuscany. Think: lush green landscapes, stone walls that give off all the old-world charm, a grand staircase fit for your cinematic entrance—and yes, it’s all right here in Arizona.

What Makes Encanterra Country Club a Great Phoenix AZ Wedding Venue?

• A Venue That’s Giving... Italian Villa Energy

This place is overflowing with charm. You’ve got vibrant greens, cozy courtyard vibes, peaceful water views, and architecture that makes you forget you're in the desert. Whether you're walking down the grand staircase for your ceremony or sipping cocktails on the patio with mountain views in the background, every corner feels intentional—and so dang romantic.

• So. Many. Photo Ops.

Everywhere you turn, there’s a new backdrop that’ll make your photographer (and videographer 👋) squeal a little. You’ve got:

-Rolling golf course greens for those elegant, sweeping shots

-Stone walls that add depth and texture to your portraits

-A reception space with floor-to-ceiling glass doors that open to the outdoors (hellooo dreamy golden hour light)

-A bridal suite that’s basically made for getting-ready content with its natural light

Your gallery will have so much variety it’ll look like you flew around Europe for these photos—without leaving Arizona.

• They Make Planning Easy (No Stress, Just Vibes)

Whether you’re planning a full-blown 200-guest celebration or a more intimate wedding with your closest crew, Encanterra has flexible spaces and customizable options to match your vision. Bonus: they’ve got a solid preferred vendor list that makes planning smoother, and their team is actually helpful (which—trust me—isn’t always the case at every venue).

Alyssa and Ethan’s Italian-Inspired Encanterra Wedding:

Alyssa and Ethan fell head over heels for Encanterra the second they saw it—and it’s easy to see why. They wanted their wedding to feel like an adventure without the stress of destination logistics, and this venue delivered all the Italian romance with none of the jet lag.

Every detail felt like them. From the soft colors to the heartfelt ceremony to the way they snuck glances at each other all day (yes, I noticed and yes, I cried behind the camera), it was the kind of wedding that makes my job feel like a total dream. The love, the location, the golden light—I could have filmed it forever.

The vendors that helped create this fairytale wedding day were: 

Photographer: Aurora Gonzales

DJ: All American DJ

Hair and Makeup: Desert Bridal
