About Masseria Calderisi
Masseria Calderisi is a traditional fortified farmhouse in the Itria Valley in Puglia, southern Italy — one of the region’s most beautifully preserved and authentically Puglian wedding venues. Surrounded by ancient olive groves, dry stone walls, and gardens with an exclusive private pool, the masseria offers the kind of natural grandeur and rustic elegance that cannot be built or manufactured. It simply is.
The venue is exclusively hired for weddings, making it ideal for multi-day destination celebrations. Couples typically take Masseria Calderisi for two to three days, allowing the full arc of a destination wedding to unfold at its own pace — from a welcome dinner through to the ceremony day and a relaxed poolside farewell. The light in this part of Puglia — warm, golden, seemingly endless in the summer months — is something we as filmmakers think about long before we arrive.

Why Masseria Calderisi Is Exceptional for Wedding Films
We have filmed weddings at Villa Balbiano on Lake Como, Il Borro in Tuscany, Château de Tourreau in Provence — and across dozens of extraordinary venues throughout the UK. Masseria Calderisi holds its own against all of them. Here is why.
The light in the Itria Valley is unlike anything else we have experienced. In the early morning, the olive groves glow silver. By late afternoon, the stone walls turn gold. At golden hour — which in a Puglia summer seems to last for hours — everything is saturated with a warmth that requires almost no colour correction in post. It is, quite simply, the best natural light we have ever filmed in.
The setting is also visually layered in a way that works beautifully across an entire multi-day film. The ancient textures of the masseria stone. The geometry of the olive trees. The pool at midday. The candlelit reception tables. The ceremony arch. There is no shortage of visual storytelling material — and every corner of the venue reveals something new with changing light throughout the day.
And then there is the exclusivity. When a couple hires Masseria Calderisi, they take it entirely. That means we can film freely across all three days, build visual sequences that develop across the full weekend, and capture the kind of unguarded, genuine moments — between guests on the beach the first evening, poolside on the final afternoon — that are only possible when there is time, space and trust.

- Bridal Preparation: Getting ready in the masseria — the rooms, the light, the details

Do you film the welcome dinner and poolside party as well as the ceremony?
Yes — for multi-day weddings, we cover the full arc of the celebration. At Lucy and Ben’s wedding, that meant the welcome dinner on the Adriatic beach on day one, the ceremony and reception on day two, and the poolside party on day three. All of it woven into a single film that tells the complete story of their wedding weekend.
Is Puglia a good region for destination wedding videography?
Puglia is one of the best regions in Europe for destination wedding films. The natural light, the authentic landscape of olive groves and masserias, and venues like Masseria Calderisi create filmmaking conditions that are simply extraordinary. For UK couples planning an Italian destination wedding beyond Lake Como or Tuscany, Puglia — and Masseria Calderisi specifically — is our strongest recommendation.
Can you recommend other suppliers for a Masseria Calderisi wedding?
From Lucy and Ben’s wedding, we can recommend: Westacott Weddings & Events (wedding planner), Emma Wilder Photo (photographer), Caterina Florist (florals), Apulian Ceremony (officiant), and ALR Music (entertainment). All were exceptional.
