Due to the great interest in the Renaissance era, you’ll find a plethora of stores selling the items you’ll need for your project. Many websites offer suggestions for costumes, jewelry, décor, music, and even cuisine. You’ll also find that this theme is less expensive than a traditional wedding. Especially in terms of dress.
Party Decorations
When you incorporate your renaissance theme into your reception decor, it will look fantastic. This theme has so many interesting possibilities that your imagination will run wild.
For this sort of wedding, an outside setting would be ideal, but even if your reception is held indoors, you’ll have plenty of décor alternatives.
Ivy can be used to decorate the walls and even the table.
I discovered some battery-operated torches that would look great hung on the walls as well; perhaps the ivy could be hung in the same place as the torches.
Table Centerpieces
Many rod iron, renaissance-style candle holders are available for use as a centerpiece. Check out your local Hobby Lobby for craft supplies. I got the ones depicted above for half price at Hobby Lobby, and they were extremely affordable. There are also battery-operated candles available, which pose no risk of fire. I added the light grapes, but ivy strung over the candle holders would also look nice.
A rod iron bird cage would also look wonderful as a dining table centerpiece.
Renaissance Wedding Attire
The bride can wear any color she wants at a Renaissance wedding. While white was not a customary color during the Renaissance, it was not even a popular hue at the time. Darker colors, such as deep purple, dark green, and red, were more popular, as they were believed to bring fertility. You are welcome to wear white, but it is not required.
Naturally, you’ll want to be the Queen during a Renaissance wedding. The Queen, Maiden, and Tavern Wench are just a few of the Renaissance-themed costumes available.
Depending on the theme of the wedding, the groom should dress like a Medieval Knight or King. A blousy white or off-white shirt with a vest that matches or complements the bride’s gown color. According to your preferences, the pants can be fitted or poufy.
The costume is finished off with a matching leather belt and knee-high leather boots. If you’re going to be King, you’ll probably want a nice cloak or cape, which you can readily obtain if you search for Renaissance costumes on the internet.
You would have to put together your own suit for your groom. The costumes aren’t always well-made, but you can find good-quality bits and put them together yourself.
Wedding Cakes
One of the most vital aspects of your wedding preparations is the wedding cake.
Almost any bakery will be able to accommodate your needs. Do your homework and, if you have photos, bring them with you to the bakery.
Discuss your desires with them if you are unsure. They are professionals who can most likely assist you in creating the perfect design for your Medieval wedding cake.
If you look online for Renaissance wedding cake ideas, you’ll find a plethora of unique and lovely options.
