A Wedding in Puglia - Matrimonio Italianissimo - Food Lover's Odyssey | Italian Entertainment And More | Scoop.it

Although I wasn't officially invited, the very kind family of Masseria La Greca allowed me to crash their daughter Beatrice's wedding in Salento.

Part Sardinian on the bride's side, and part Salentino on the groom's, this wedding not only brought together two families from different regions of Italy but also two wedding tradtions.

With explanations and translations both from my friend Ylenia and Rosalba (the bride's aunt who came from Sardinia and was clearly in charge of keeping traditions in tact), I got an inside look at a wedding in Puglia.

Big, boisterous, food-focussed and one that carried on centuries-old traditions, this wedding was molto Italiano, or should I say, Italianissimo!
