Isabelle & Forrest
Masseria Grieco, Puglia
Isabelle and Forrest’s wedding at Masseria Grieco was a three-day celebration infused with colour, culture, and joyful energy, bringing their guests into the warm heart of Puglia for an unforgettable experience. The festivities began with two pre-wedding events that set the tone for the days to come – an intimate welcome gathering and a lively poolside party – each thoughtfully curated to immerse their loved ones in the beauty and atmosphere of the Apulian countryside.
For the wedding day, Nunzia Guerino transformed the masseria with an explosion of vibrant floral compositions – rich, sun-kissed hues weaving through every space and echoing the couple’s South African roots and love for natural beauty. The ceremony embraced traditional South African elements, blending them seamlessly with the rustic elegance of Masseria Grieco. Guests were welcomed with tambourines adorned with ribbons, adding a playful, celebratory note as the violin guided Isabelle down the aisle.
Dinner unfolded under a canopy of stars, where tables bloomed with abundant arrangements in bold, joyful tones – creating a setting that felt both luxurious and alive. As the night deepened, entertainment took centre stage: the Zagor Swing Band energized the courtyard with their unmistakable rhythm, followed by an electrifying fusion of violin and saxophone that lifted the celebration into pure euphoria.
With music filling the warm night air and guests dancing with tambourines in hand, Isabelle and Forrest’s wedding became a radiant tapestry of culture, colour, and emotion – an unforgettable celebration that perfectly captured their spirit.
