Theme weddings are becoming increasingly popular. Absolutely. It's perfect for weddings with a historically inspired theme.
While attention is mainly focused on the bride's gown during a traditional wedding, at a theme wedding the groom's attire is equally as eye-catching.
How to Dress for a Medieval Wedding
The costumes chosen for a medieval wedding are perhaps the most important elements in helping to create a period atmosphere.
1. Choose costumes for the wedding party based on a favorite time period and culture. Look through medieval and Renaissance costume books for ideas. Search the Internet under "medieval costume" and "Renaissance costume" as well.
2. Find a local seamstress who has experience in sewing period costumes.
3. Sew the wedding costumes yourself if you have sewing experience. Find patterns on the Internet and in period costume books. Some of the major pattern companies have begun producing a wide range of beautiful and accurate medieval and Renaissance costume patterns.
4. Choose to rent costumes instead of having costumes made. Look in the yellow pages under "costume rental" for local rental information. This is a great option for those who do not want to keep their costumes after the wedding.
5. Explore the Medieval and Renaissance Wedding Ring and the League of Renaissance Merchants Web Ring. Invite guests to wear medieval to the wedding.
6. An Elizabethan bride may have a 10th-century Viking groom. Choose to coordinate colors instead of periods.
