Don’t knock Renaissance Festival folks. My wife and I also held a period wedding, early southern redneck - bbq and dancing! (funny, I don’t feel redneck, but going down the checklist, I do seem to fill in a lot of X’s. Guess there is something to be said to being married early in life - the longer you wait, the greater the cost from what I’ve witnessed.)

Wonderful memories for this couple!

Verily, thou couldst have been a maiden in waiting therein.

Zounds!

a little off topic, but if anybody likes Renaissance or just plain old fun and plain old outstanding entertainment, then the Renaissance Faire in upstate NY in the summer is fabulous....

I swear they hire off-Broadway actors/actresses to play the parts.....they have the typical jousting show but the real entertainment are the random little plays that gone on all day long ....with great music and costumes....

Tsk, tsk, get your mind out of the gutter. Interesting question though.

[Teflonic]

What a lucky couple!

[luvie]

That would be great fun!

Wish I didn’t live so far away!

Pretty cool.

- the bride even promised to be bonny and buxom in bed, a vow from a 14th century service.

That works too.

[Dumpster Baby]

I wonder if the realism extended to cooties and unwashed pits.

[StarCMC]

Too cool!! Thanks for the ping!
