Wedding Wednesday: Going Medieval

Posted on by Mikal

Wedding Wednesday (1)

I’m late! I’m late! I’m late for a very important date!!

Okay, so I totally forgot today’s Wednesday, and I admit: I’m doing this so last-minute. It’s been a super busy week so far, though! Between trying to finish my novel in the next two weeks, there’s a lot of doctor and dentist appointments, figure skating lessons, and a husband out of town. But don’t fret! It may be late, but I still have a wedding for you!

So let’s go medieval today! Ready?

As always, because the clothes are my faaavorite part, the dress:

Do you know how hard it is to find a medieval wedding gown that isn’t completely plain? Who would have thought?!

The hair:

Because who doesn’t need a medieval hairdo on their wedding day??

Those colors!!

The Ringbearer’s “Pillow”:

Warning, you may want a fake one, or an older ringbearer–one who won’t try to become a medieval Luke Skywalker.

I was going to include the groom’s outfit, buuuut…my son scoffed at it. Ha! Besides, Pinterest is full of them!

So what do you think? Are you a medieval buff? Would you want this wedding theme? I have to admit, I think my favorite was the reception hall. It puts me in mind of Tamara Leigh’s Age of Faith series. *swoon* (Seriously, you should go buy them.)

  5. Ooh this is such a beautiful post! I’ll definitely look into Tamara Leigh’s books now! If you don’t mind time travel, Lisa Bergren’s River of Time Series is set in medieval Italy and it’s one of my favorites ❤

    1. Thank you so much, Abby! And YES!!! Do check out Tamara’s books! Speaking of time travel, one of my favorite Tamara Leigh books is a time travel one, Dreamspell. Soooo worth checking out.

      I actually have the River of Time series, but it got lost on my TBR pile! Thank you for that reminder. I really need to check that out!

    1. Aw, thank you so much!! Sadly, life has become extremely busy, so I’ve been totally slacking. I need to get back to my Wedding Wednesdays! They’re far too much fun. 😀
