ABOUT THE WEDDING

We had the pleasure of photographing a dreamy wedding at Masseria Potenti, and we are excited to share it with you. Are you looking for a unique and romantic wedding venue in Italy? Do you want to celebrate your love in a historic farmhouse surrounded by nature and culture? If so, you will love this wedding at Masseria Potenti, a 16th-century farmhouse in the rolling hills of Manduria, Puglia.

The Wedding Venue
Masseria Potenti is a stunning venue that offers a blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. It is located on a 130-hectare estate with olive groves, vineyards, and Mediterranean thicket. It is also close to the beautiful beaches of the Ionian Sea, where you can enjoy the sun and the sea breeze. This beautiful venue has been carefully restored to preserve its rich agricultural heritage, while incorporating modern amenities such as a pool, a spa, a restaurant, and a wine cellar. It has multiple options for your ceremony and reception, from the elegant orangery draped in white muslin, to the Agavi Portico dappled with sunlight, to the Androna Porch with its Moorish influence. You can also enjoy pre-dinner drinks by the pool and indulge in a delicious wedding meal at the restaurant, which can accommodate up to 250 guests. The masseria also offers a range of activities and experiences for you and your guests such as cooking classes, wine tasting, cheese and olive oil tasting, and yoga sessions. You can also explore the nearby towns and villages, such as Manduria, Lecce, and Ostuni, and discover their history, culture, and cuisine.

The Wedding Day
The sweet bridal couple, who wished for a easy but luxury wedding with their close friends and family, chose Masseria Potenti as their venue for its beauty and mood. Their wedding party lasted for three days, with a fun welcome party, a lovely wedding day, and a cool pool party. A nice group of people from different places joined them and had a lot of fun. The wedding day was full of joy and laughter. The bride and groom arrived in an oldtimer car, and they exchanged their vows under the Agavi Portico, surrounded by nature and their loved ones. They had a beautiful outdoor reception, with long tables decorated with flowers and candles, and a DJ that played their favorite songs. They danced the night away under the stars, and ended the night with fireworks. The next day, the couple organised a pool party, where everyone relaxed and enjoyed the sun, the water, and the company of their friends and family. They had a barbecue, cocktails, and games, and they continued the celebration with more music and dancing.
