The bride gets ready in a suite in the historic buildings, and ceremonies use the gardens among ancient olive trees near the Adriatic.

Bridal hair and makeup services at Masseria San Domenico
Planning an Indian wedding at Masseria San Domenico? At a Puglia masseria or resort, a dedicated indoor bridal room helps separate preparation from outdoor celebrations. Build a different look for daytime functions and evening events, with time for jewellery, hair and dupatta changes.
Bridal makeup, hair and draping
Plan your wedding-day makeup with the hairstyle, saree or lehenga draping, dupatta and jewellery placement. Share skin preferences and reference looks so the finish suits your outfit and the ceremony light.
Haldi, mehendi and sangeet looks
Build a lighter look for daytime celebrations and a more defined look for the sangeet or cocktail evening. Each booked function has its own ready-by time and outfit-change plan.
Reception and engagement makeup
Discuss soft glam or a more defined evening finish, the reception hairstyle and the time needed to change after the ceremony. HD makeup preferences can be discussed at consultation; product choices depend on your skin and look.
Family and bridesmaid hair and makeup
Share a list of mothers, sisters, bridesmaids and other guests who need makeup and hairstyling. The quote confirms the number of artists and which services are booked for each person.

A little history
A watchtower that grew into a masseria.
Masseria San Domenico grew up around a 15th-century watchtower near the Adriatic, once linked to the Knights of Malta, and became a working farm surrounded by olive groves. It was one of the first masserie in Puglia to become a luxury hotel.
Today it is run by the same family behind Borgo Egnazia, with a large seawater pool, a spa and gardens among ancient olive trees.
For a bride, it offers a calm, classic setting: a suite in the old buildings, portraits among the olives and a ceremony in the gardens.
