Mr Hammerton-Fraser, 40, went out with his squire and ring bearer...but he was drunk at the time, plus it was like years ago.

There’s a Ren. Festival near Houston every October.
Hey! Watch who you’re calling a geek! ;)
Actually, I mundaned out long ago, but my wife and I met at our mutual first SCA event. About 27 years ago. Been married for 25.
Wish I was rich. I’d like armour like his...
It would cause my student’s eyes to bug right on out!
I’m sorry, but that just kicks ass.
This is so much easier to witness than the gay renfair wedding between 2 dudes I saw featured in an obscure renaissance wedding magazine. ugh.
Looks like beauty and the beast!
Very cool.
I would be careful, he looks like he knows how to use that sword.
Yes, but I have a “Kick Me” refrigerator magnet.
Some 30 years ago and more I was moderately active in the Society for Creative Anachronism in California, and it was great fun - though I think many people took it a bit too seriously, rather like this wedding, which is, after all, rather over the top... I was even a groomsman at two SCA Weddings in full regalia -- in both cases the couple was able to persuade the priest to do a Latin Mass in full kit.
We will?
And this is when???
:’) Sorry I called you a geek. So, your wife’s a geek too, eh? ;’) ;’) ;’)
Yep. Now we have a whole family of geeks! ;)
The PA Ren Faire is great!! I’ve been there a couple of times, and it was always fun. I went to the one in Charlotte, NC this year, and that was OK, but it didn’t have as many street performers.
Next one I won’t miss! Thanks for the info. ~Pandy~
YOur welcome, enjoy! I believe the PA RenFaire also has a Dickens event during Christmas. It is built on the grounds of a winery, and I think they decorate the mansion and have some kind of Christmas Dickens event. You can take a tour of the mansion and a wine tasting.
