Connections Weddings
Puglia
About the Event
Connections Weddings will be hosted for the very first time in Puglia, the heel of Italy's famous boot, in partnership with Pugliapromozione and Joan Estrada Special Weddings; the specialist division of Joan Estrada Special Events & Communications.
Dedicated to empowering event planners to organise every element of the wedding, from the venue to bespoke tailoring to experiences, attendees will participate in one-to-one meetings enhanced with authentic experiences. Together with Inventure Life, Connections Weddings will showcase a range of unique moments including mixology workshops, flower arranging sessions, guides to driving classic wedding cars and local wine tours. Event planners will also be able to attend inspirational talks from industry leaders and listen to rare knowledge from tailors, caterers and interior designers.
As one of the world's most romantic destinations that is famed for tailor-made bridal gowns, breath-taking floral design suppliers and renowned gourmet experiences, Puglia will undoubtedly inspire with a programme curated with authentic experiences showcasing the very best of the region.
