WEDDING IN PUGLIA

There’s something magical about Puglia. The soft southern light. The scent of wild herbs on the breeze. The whitewashed villages like Ostuni and Alberobello, standing still in time. The gentle rhythm of the Adriatic. It’s no wonder couples from all over the world are drawn here—to celebrate, to connect, to begin their forever in a place that feels like a dream.

At Fleur de Love Photography, we don’t just take pictures. We preserve the soul of your celebration.

Why So Many Couples Choose Puglia for Their Destination Wedding

Puglia offers something rare: a sense of discovery, a pace that invites presence, and a natural elegance untouched by cliché.

Unlike more saturated Italian destinations, Puglia feels intimate—undiscovered, but deeply authentic. Couples fall in love with its sun-drenched coastlines, its endless olive groves, and the warmth of its culture. The architecture ranges from rustic masserias to ornate baroque towns like Lecce and Nardò, each one offering a cinematic backdrop for your wedding story.

There’s also the food—elevated yet earthy, with every meal crafted from local ingredients and centuries of tradition. Think long, candlelit dinners under fig trees, slow courses of handmade pasta, local wines, and conversations that stretch late into the evening.

From the polished luxury of Borgo Egnazia, to the romantic stillness of Masseria Montenapoleone, to clifftop vows in Polignano a Mare or a barefoot beach ceremony in Savelletri, Puglia offers a poetic canvas for celebrations that feel truly alive.

What We Do – My work as a Puglia Wedding Photographer

We create refined, emotional, editorial-style wedding photography for couples who believe that every detail matters—but so does every moment. Our approach is a blend of quiet observation and intuitive artistry. We know how to gently direct when needed, but our favorite images are always the ones you didn’t know we were capturing—the laugh between toasts, the brush of hands, the moment the sun dips below the olive trees.

Whether your celebration takes place in a centuries-old masseria in Monopoli, a candlelit palazzo in Lecce, or a windswept cliffside near Polignano a Mare, we are there to witness it with care, depth, and style.

Who We Work With

Our couples are discerning, intentional, and style-conscious. They may be hosting a grand, multi-day destination wedding at Borgo Egnazia or an intimate celebration under the stars at Masseria Potenti, but what they share is a love for beauty, culture, and meaningful experience.

They want more than just a gallery—they want a legacy. They want photography that feels editorial yet personal, artful yet emotionally grounded. They want someone who understands what matters, and how to see it.

Why work with us?

We live and breathe Puglia. We know the golden hours in Otranto, the secret corners of Martina Franca, and the perfect hidden streets for a stolen portrait in Locorotondo. We don’t need to scout—we’re already fluent in the rhythm of this land. That means we can guide you effortlessly, giving you space to be fully present, without ever worrying about where to stand or what comes next.

But what truly sets us apart is our commitment to you. This isn’t about trends or shot lists—it’s about telling your story with integrity, elegance, and heart.

Our Values

Above all, we value connection. We believe photography is deeply personal, and that trust is everything. You’ll never feel like “just another client” because you’re not—we take on only a limited number of weddings each year, so we can give each couple our full creative attention.

We also believe in intentional beauty. In capturing not just how your wedding looked, but how it felt. The textures. The laughter. The quiet. The light. That’s what we chase—and what you’ll hold onto for the rest of your lives.

Best Puglia Venues We Love

One of the most rewarding parts of being a wedding photographer in Puglia, Italy is getting to work in places that are not only visually stunning but rich in character, light, and story. Puglia’s venues are more than just backdrops—they shape the mood, rhythm, and soul of a wedding day. Whether it’s coastal opulence or quiet countryside charm, each location brings its own unique magic.

Borgo Egnazia – A World of Its Own

There’s no place quite like Borgo Egnazia. Built to resemble a traditional Apulian village, this luxury resort in Savelletrioffers grandeur without pretense. The muted stone walls, winding alleyways, and sprawling grounds feel cinematic from every angle. It’s perfect for couples dreaming of a large, multi-day celebration that blends impeccable service with timeless Italian elegance. Every wedding I’ve photographed here feels like a story unfolding inside a beautifully curated film set—complete with golden hour light and sea breeze.

Masseria Don Luigi – Chic Simplicity

Tucked away near Fasano, Masseria Don Luigi is the definition of understated luxury. Its whitewashed architecture, symmetrical courtyards, and surrounding olive groves create a peaceful, sun-soaked atmosphere that invites you to slow down and be present. It’s a place where minimalism meets warmth—and where every detail, from floral installations to intimate dinners under the stars, looks like it belongs in the pages of a design magazine.

Masseria Moroseta – Pure, Modern Romance

If your heart leans toward clean lines and thoughtful design, Masseria Moroseta near Ostuni is a dream. Perched above the sea with sweeping countryside views, this venue blends modernist architecture with organic charm. The light here is soft and steady, the spaces minimal yet soulful. It’s ideal for intimate weddings with a design-conscious aesthetic, where every photo breathes elegance and calm.

Masseria San Giovanni – Rustic Meets Refined

Set in the heart of the Itria Valley, Masseria San Giovanni is one of my favorite places to capture love stories. With its tiny chapel, 19th-century architecture, and olive tree-lined grounds, it offers an authentic, earthy backdrop balanced with thoughtful modern comforts. It’s perfect for couples wanting to host their closest people for a few unforgettable days—complete with sun-drenched brunches and dusk portraits as the sky turns lavender.

Palazzo Daniele – Art & Soul

For the creatively minded couple, Palazzo Daniele in Gagliano del Capo is an experience like no other. It’s not just a venue—it’s a living art piece. With its frescoed ceilings, raw stone walls, and curated interiors, this 19th-century palazzo feels both ancient and avant-garde. Every room tells a story. Every corridor begs to be photographed. It’s for couples who see their wedding not just as a celebration, but as an artistic expression.

Castello Monaci – A Fairytale in Salento

Castello Monaci offers the kind of fairytale setting you imagine as a child, then rediscover as an adult—only grander and more intoxicating. Surrounded by vineyards and olive trees in Salento, this castle evokes old-world romance in the most majestic way. Towering trees, candlelit halls, and sprawling courtyards provide endless opportunities for atmospheric, timeless imagery. It’s a venue made for dramatic entrances and unforgettable evenings.

Hidden Treasures in Cisternino, Fasano, Carovigno & Trani

Beyond the well-known names, Puglia hides countless gems tucked into quiet corners of the countryside and coast. Cisternino offers intimate masserias with centuries-old olive trees and soft valley views. Fasano gives you a perfect blend of sea and land, where rustic charm meets high-end detail. Carovigno has a bohemian soul and golden light that lingers all day. And Trani, with its historic cathedral by the sea, offers a touch of coastal elegance with a distinct Northern Apulian character.

As someone who’s photographed love in all these corners, I can tell you this: wherever you choose in Puglia, if it speaks to you—it will photograph beautifully. It’s not just about the venue, but the energy it holds. And when paired with intention, design, and love, the results are nothing short of magic.

I’m happy to share what I’ve learned to help make your destination wedding planning process smoother and more informed.

  • Think elevated, timeless pieces that complement Puglia’s natural palette—flowing fabrics in creams, soft blues, or earthy tones work beautifully against olive groves and white stone architecture. I provide a detailed style guide after booking to ensure your outfits photograph beautifully and feel authentically you.

  • Late spring through early fall offers the most favorable conditions, with May-June and September-October being particularly magical.
