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.)

I love this!
Renfest people are up there with FReepers in my regard. I’ve met some wonderful friends in both sets.
Cherry, I’m 90% sure that New York faire performers are (like Texas ones) non-professionals. We just rehearse like crazy - for my faire, we’re rehearsing right now - seven weekends before the eight performance weekends.
