Sometimes the coolest wedding venues are hidden right under your nose. For me, that was certainly the case with La Scala Ristorante.
The elevated Italian restaurant is just a few blocks from my home in Midtown Savannah. While I was aware of the restaurant, and it was on my list of places to try, I had no idea about their amazing event hosting capabilities.
I had the pleasure of shooting an intimate wedding that took place in their chapel (yes, this Italian restaurant has an awesome little chapel).
However, just having a place for an actual ceremony isn’t all that La Scala can do. According to their website they can accommodate even the largest parties (which can be rare in the Midtown area):
La Scala has several options for private events and dining for groups of all sizes. We offer customized catering, décor and event planning, from intimate birthday dinners to elaborate weddings. We welcome a very select number of sponsored events and weddings each year, and we can accommodate gatherings of up to 300 people. La Scala Catering Team will seamlessly turn your special day into a dream come true.
Our spaces include our intimate Chapel Dining Room set to your liking in a variety of seating configurations as well as the Garden Courtyard which is perfect for receptions and pre-dinner cocktails, The Grand Patio which is large enough for tenting and seats up to 100 persons and six private dining rooms for intimate dining.
La Scala is also available for an entire restaurant buyout.
In addition to just being a really well run operation all around, the grounds around La Scala make for some great photos with a historic Savannah backdrop.
If I have the opportunity to shoot another event at this awesome venue I’ll definitely jump at the chance.
