The desire for dream weddings in Puglia attracts the attention of couples from all over the world in this region. Alex and Michael, looking for the ideal location for their dream wedding in Puglia, directly from London and with the help of their wedding planner Italy Style Weddings, chose the enchanting Masseria San Giovanni to celebrate their union.
LOVELY MASSERIA SAN GIOVANNI
Masseria San Giovanni situata nel cuore della Puglia, tra le immense distese di ulivi secolari della Valle d’Itria, a pochi passi dal Parco Regionale delle Dune Costiere e dal mare Adriatico di Savelletri e Torre Canne, è l’attrattiva per matrimoni da sogno in Puglia. Realizzata nella seconda metà del 1800, è un esempio tipico di masseria pugliese fortificata. Immersa nell’incanto del paesaggio Salentino, fra uliveti secolari, aranceti, orti e rigogliosi arbusti di rosmarino, spicca con i suoi volumi candidi e seducenti nella luce intensa del sole pugliese.
It has been restored with total respect for the original materials and details, to enhance a unique structure in the world which also includes an enchanting and iconic 17th century church known as "Madonna della Madia" which served the residents, workers and visitors of the farm . It was the place where farmers gathered to pray and express gratitude, and today the church serves as a place of celebration and meditation.
ALEX AND MICHAEL'S DREAM WEDDING IN PUGLIA
The choice to rely on the expertise and mastery of the renowned wedding planner Italian Style Weddings proved to be a winning option. Every little detail was taken care of with precision, making their dream wedding in Puglia possible.
After the moving symbolic ritual celebrated in front of the iconic church, Alex and Michael celebrated their love surrounded by friends and relatives in a romantic candlelit dinner. The enchanted atmosphere was painted under the shadow of the mirrored wall of the iconic church of Masseria San Giovanni which made everything even more magical.
As day turned into night, the bride surprised everyone by breaking the mold with grace and style, changing the traditional wedding dress for a short one and wearing a comfortable pair of sneakers, adding a touch of modernity and practicality to her look for dancing wildly during the final party.
Alex and Michael's wedding was a perfect combination of tradition and modernity, an unforgettable experience for this sweet couple from Great Britain who will certainly not forget their dream wedding in Puglia in one of the most evocative locations.
