Medieval Wedding Favors and
Decorations
© by Rose Smith
You have the location, you know what you're wearing and the menu's been
planned. Now how do you decorate that sparse reception room? What would
be a great favor gift for your guests?
Before deciding on your actual medieval decorations and wedding favors, you will
need to ask yourself a few questions.
1. Is your medieval wedding and reception being held indoors, outdoors or a bit
of both? (In other words, is your medieval ceremony being held outside and the
reception inside, or vice versa?)
2. Do you want to have a "peasant"-style medieval wedding theme, where
you, your wedding party and guests dress simply, or are you envisioning
a grander style, more in keeping with "royalty"?
Deciding on what your medieval wedding sub-theme should be will help you focus on the
type of decorations you will need. For a royalty-type wedding, your
decorations would obviously be more elaborate and "rich"
looking, with deep rich color tones.
For a peasant-style wedding, you should keep things simplistic and
rustic. For example, using wild flowers, earthen type pottery, and
rustic type lanterns.
Depending on the location and style that you decide upon, you will need
to look at different medieval decorating options. That's not to say you can't mix
and match. By all means, if you find an idea that really appeals to you,
use it no matter what the location.
Be sure to jot down any ideas that
come to you for future reference. Ideas come and go so fast, you'll want
to record them as soon as possible.
Medieval
wedding favors and decorations are
only limited by your imagination, so mix and match, and have fun
creating your own unique ideas.
