Known for its stunning landscapes, unique architecture, and elegant ambiance, it has become a destination of choice for couples looking to tie the knot in a breathtaking, rustic-chic setting. If you’re considering Masseria Moroseta for your wedding, it’s essential to understand the cost and what factors influence the total price. This guide will break down everything you need to know to plan your dream wedding at this iconic venue.

What Does a Wedding at Masseria Moroseta Really Cost?

If you’ve fallen in love with the look and feel of Masseria Moroseta, you’re not alone. With its whitewashed walls, olive groves, and minimalist elegance, this venue in the heart of Puglia has become one of the most sought-after destinations for modern couples planning a wedding in Italy.

As a destination wedding photographer who specializes in design-led celebrations across Italy and France, I’ve had the privilege of photographing at Masseria Moroseta, and today I want to give you an honest, inside look into what it costs to bring a wedding here to life. From venue fees to florals, and everything in between, I’ll also share visual inspiration and insights from my experience to help you plan a day that’s as artful as it is effortless.

The Venue: What You’re Paying For

Set in an olive grove beside a turquoise pool, this intimate Southern Italy wedding ceremony features elegant blue and white floral arrangements, natural textures, and effortless Mediterranean charm.

1. Venue Rental

Masseria Moroseta is more than a venue—it’s an atmosphere. A space where contemporary design meets rustic soul. With 6 rooms on-site, it’s perfect for intimate weddings or full weekend celebrations.

Depending on the season and exclusivity, expect to pay €20,000–€30,000+ for a full buyout. This typically includes:

• 2–3 nights accommodation for up to 12 guests

• Exclusive use of the grounds

• Breakfast for guests

Many couples choose to book additional nearby villas for larger guest counts, which can add another €2,000–€5,000 to the accommodation budget.

2. Catering

The vibrant blooms perfectly complement the nostalgic charm of the truck, adding an elegant touch to this dreamy setup. The florals bring a burst of color and life, creating a picturesque scene that blends rustic romance with sophisticated beauty.

Catering is another significant investment when planning a wedding at Masseria Moroseta. The venue offers in-house catering that highlights the rich flavors of local Puglian cuisine, with menus thoughtfully curated to reflect the season and region. I’ve been following the Masseria Moroseta Kitchen on Instagram, and their food experience looks absolutely incredible—beautifully plated, fresh, and full of soul. It’s clear that the culinary experience here is just as thoughtfully designed as the space itself.

• Average cost per person: Catering costs generally range from €150 to €250 per person, depending on the menu selection and the number of guests. For larger weddings, expect the price to be on the higher end of the spectrum.

3. Accommodations

Masseria Moroseta offers a limited number of luxurious suites for guests to stay at, which is ideal for couples hosting a destination wedding. The on-site accommodations add to the overall cost of the wedding, especially if you plan to book the rooms for your guests. The cost per room can vary based on the type of room, the length of stay, and the time of year.

Kids Policy: Children over 12 can stay overnight at the property, but younger children are welcome during the wedding day.

• Average accommodation cost: The rooms typically range from €300 to €600 per night, with discounts sometimes available for multi-night bookings. If you plan to accommodate a large group of guests, it’s important to factor in the cost of booking additional rooms at nearby hotels or guesthouses.

4. Seasonality

As with most destination wedding venues, the time of year you choose to marry at Masseria Moroseta will impact the cost. Puglia experiences a Mediterranean climate, with hot summers and mild winters. The peak season for weddings at the venue is typically from late spring to early fall, when the weather is perfect for outdoor ceremonies and receptions.

• Peak season (May to September): Weddings during the high season will generally be more expensive, with costs for venue rental and catering being at their highest.

• Off-season (October to April): If you're open to a winter or early spring wedding, you can expect to see lower prices for both venue rental and catering.

5. Design, Planning, and Styling

To make the most of Masseria Moroseta’s architecture and natural light, design and styling matter deeply. For a well-styled event that reflects the elegance of the setting, couples should anticipate investing in high-touch planning and creative direction.

While mid-range planners may start around €12,000–€18,000, high-end planning and design for a luxury destination wedding often ranges from €20,000–€35,000+, depending on scale and complexity.

Pro Tip: This space photographs beautifully in the soft golden light of Puglia’s sunset—one reason why I love recommending it to couples who want that warm, editorial glow.

Florals, linens, tablescapes, and intentional design elements often fall between €10,000–€18,000.
