My wife and I celebrated our wedding at the magnificent Mastropa over a long weekend in May 2026. It is an absolutely stunning venue set amongst Apulian olive groves, which has been beautifully furnished and designed by the wonderful host Gianna and her husband. The incredible grounds, gardens and rooftops of the venue are available as settings for the different parts of the wedding day which can be tailored to your exact preferences. We also hosted a post-wedding day pizza and pool party in the fabulous pool area which was perfect for the occasion. The rooms are modern, spacious and air-conditioned, and the variety of the freshly made delicious breakfasts each day is an absolute highlight. We were delighted with the venue and all of our guests were hugely complimentary about it as well. Special thanks to Gianna who was so helpful both before and during the wedding, always answering our questions on WhatsApp, offering video calls to show us parts of the venue and arranging delicious lunches/dinners over the wedding weekend for those staying on-site. Grazie mille!
