The short answer
Yes. Tejaswini’s India-based team covers weddings at Masseria Torre Maizza, a 16th-century fortified farmhouse in Savelletri run by Rocco Forte Hotels. It suits mid-sized weddings; the bride gets ready in a courtyard suite and ceremonies use the whitewashed courtyards, with the watchtower as a backdrop.

Your wedding functions
Planning an Indian wedding at Masseria Torre Maizza? 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Italy wedding makeup prices are quoted for your dates, functions and team size. Ask for an itemised quote separating bridal services, family makeup, agreed touch-ups and travel. Confirm flights, accommodation, meals, local transfers and the documentation needed for each travelling artist before booking. There is no fixed package price for every Italian venue.
Punjabi, Sikh, Hindu, South Indian, Maharashtrian and other Indian and South Asian bridal traditions can have different hair, jewellery and draping requirements. Share the ceremony details when enquiring; venue permission for the ceremony is arranged separately by your planner.

A little history
Masserie are Puglia’s fortified farmhouses, built from the 16th century with thick walls and watchtowers against raids from the sea. Torre Maizza is one of them, its tower still rising over the whitewashed courtyards.
Restored by Rocco Forte Hotels, it is now a resort with rooms around the courtyards, gardens among the olive trees and a beach club a short drive away.
For a bride, a masseria means bright white walls and deep shade in turns. We plan a satin base that holds detail in both, and time courtyard portraits for the softer late-afternoon light.

Illustrative beauty schedule only. Your planner confirms venue access, ceremony permissions and room availability; Tejaswini confirms the services and touch-up attendance in your quote.
The wedding day
We ask for a room with good window light and a second room close by for family makeup, so the bride’s room stays calm.
Family looks run in parallel with the bridal skin prep, timed so nobody waits in the corridor.
Hydration, primer and a base built for white walls in bright sun and deep shade.
Maang tikka, nath and dupatta set with the outfit on, checked from every angle the photographer will use.
Portraits by the watchtower in the late afternoon, when the white walls glow instead of glare.
White walls reflect strong light, so the pheras are timed for the softer hours.
Candlelit courtyards suit a warmer reception look with a deeper lip. Allow 60–75 minutes for the change.
