One thing I love about destination weddings is that the celebration doesn’t have to be just one day! 🇮🇹

During my visit to I Luoghi di Pitti in Puglia, we got to make fresh pasta and focaccia inside a cave. How cool is that?! 🍝🤌

And it got me thinking… wouldn’t this be such a fun activity to plan for wedding guests?

When everyone has travelled all the way to Italy, why not make the most of it and give them a little taste of the local culture?

As much as I love a beautiful venue, it’s these shared experiences (and good food, of course 😂) that make the trip even more memorable.

Fellow planners, what’s the most unique guest experience you’ve come across at a destination wedding?

Another day, another dreamy Italian wedding venue! 🇮🇹🤎

This time at I Luoghi di Pitti in Puglia, where we got to experience a beautiful styled wedding, explore the property and enjoy an incredible evening of Italian hospitality.

From the gorgeous setting to a lovely dinner and conversations with the owner, everything felt so thoughtfully put together. ✨

After years of planning weddings, I still get excited discovering places like this. And yes, my venue wishlist just got longer. 😂

Puglia, you keep surprising me!

Would you consider getting married here? 👀

20+ meetings by day, disco by night! 🪩🇮🇹

WEMA B-Treat Day 2 ended on a high note at the beautiful Masseria San Giovanni!

Studio 54 vibes, fabulous people, gorgeous florals, and can we talk about that mozzarella bar?! 🤌🤤

Loved catching up with industry friends and having a little WPIC alumni reunion all the way in Italy! 🤍

After 20 years in weddings, it’s nights like these that remind me why I love this industry so much.

And Masseria San Giovanni? Definitely one for the Puglia wedding venue list! ✨

Now tell me… would you have a mozzarella bar at your wedding? 👀

20+ meetings in one day… but make it Puglia! 🇮🇹😂

Day 2 of WEMA B-Treat brought us to the beautiful Masseria Spina, and honestly, what a place to spend the day networking!

So many great conversations with talented wedding professionals, from venue owners and DMCs to photographers, designers and AV specialists.

And of course, we had to squeeze in some delicious Italian food along the way. 🤌

One thing I’ve learned after 20 years in weddings? There’s always something new to discover, and nothing beats meeting the people behind the beautiful places we see online.

New connections, fresh ideas, a few new friends, and so much inspiration to bring back to my couples. 🤎

This is exactly why I love travelling for work!

Puglia is definitely making its way onto my destination wedding favourites list! 👀

Puglia, you keep surprising me! 🇮🇹🛺

Exploring Polignano a Mare by tuk-tuk was such a fun way to discover this beautiful coastal town and experience a different side of Puglia.

From the charming fishing cove of Portalga to the statue of Domenico Modugno, the legendary singer behind Volare, we passed the famous Grotta Palazzese cave restaurant and made our way to the picturesque seaside village of San Vito. 🤍

The coastline, the history, the hidden corners… there’s so much more to Puglia than beautiful wedding venues.

As a destination wedding planner, I love discovering experiences like this that can make a wedding celebration feel even more personal and memorable. A tuk-tuk tour could be the perfect welcome activity for your guests, a relaxed day-after experience, or a fun way to explore together between wedding events.

Because some of the most special destination wedding memories happen beyond the wedding day. ✨

Would you add a tuk-tuk tour to your Puglia wedding weekend? 🛺

Save this for your destination wedding inspiration!
