A\nmedieval wedding theme is the ideal choice for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you\ntotally besotted with Jane Austen and want to walk down the aisle with your own\nMr Darcy?

From venue to veil, and food to frock, the guide should\ngive you some ideas of how to get started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>A medieval wedding theme brings the age of chivalry\nback to life<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/inspire-me\/three-historical-wedding-themes\/tim-rebkavets-560088-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"historical wedding theme\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5>The history<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>So much of what we continue to do in wedding ceremonies today began in the Middle Ages. For example, our modern day vows are based upon oaths that came into being in medieval England. Moreover, &#8216;banns&#8217; came into effect around this time, and even the word \u2018wedding\u2019 entered the vernacular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/inspire-me\/three-historical-wedding-themes\/samuel-zeller-364234-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"historical wedding theme\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>A medieval wedding theme is an excuse for romantic excess that all your guests will thoroughly enjoy. Everyone will love to be lords and ladies for a day! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You have the perfect excuse for glorious soft flowing robes in bright, jewel-like colours for the girls. After all, colours were easier to maintain. Meanwhile the fellows will get to dress up as knights and princes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5>Your wedding<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>A <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/wedding-venues\" target=\"_blank\">castle or ancient manor house<\/a> provides the perfect setting for a medieval wedding. To really bring your medieval wedding theme to life, why not host an archery contest or include a falconry display?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Likewise, a hog roast served banquet-style is the perfect fare for the wedding breakfast.  Sam from <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Yorkshire Hog Roast (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/yorkshirehogroast.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\">Yorkshire Hog Roast<\/a> has a range of different wedding packages to choose from that would be perfect for your big day. Alongside canap\u00e9s and desserts, his hogs come with fresh bread rolls with homemade sauce and stuffing. He also prepares several salads so you really can feast like royalty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/inspire-me\/three-historical-wedding-themes\/richard-clark-1227528-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"historical wedding theme\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, the medieval period hosted different types of weddings. Although you might prefer a royal wedding theme, it might be fun to opt for a more rustic approach. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to have an outdoor or barn wedding, then a simple floral archway and hearty stews could make your theme pop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/ladybird-florist-wedding-wedding-suppliers-shropshire.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/inspire-me\/three-historical-wedding-themes\/Ladybird-florist.jpg\" alt=\"historical wedding theme\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You have\nfree reign to use flowers extensively. Talk to a florist about designing you a luscious\nbouquet and covering you venue in blooms. Yes, that is another tradition that\nstemmed from medieval England \u2013 the bouquet. However, its origin is not very\nromantic. In fact, the reason for these blossoms was to mask the smell of the\nbride if it had been too long since her yearly shower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/clive-blair-wedding-photography-birmingham.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/inspire-me\/three-historical-wedding-themes\/clive-blair-photography-3.jpg\" alt=\"historical wedding theme\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course\nthere are great medieval traditions we have forgotten. Certainly not many\npeople have jesters provide the evening entertainment, but it was a mainstay of\nthe Middle Ages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/inspire-me\/three-historical-wedding-themes\/anna-gru-1323331-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"historical wedding theme\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\nwant to return to the land of myth and dragons for your special day, or just\nwant to embrace a simpler time, a medieval wedding might be for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>The elegance of Georgian England makes a perfect\nwedding theme<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h5>The history<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>The Jane\nAusten-style restrained elegance of the Georgian, specifically Regency, period\nmakes the perfect backdrop for a wedding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/inspire-me\/three-historical-wedding-themes\/siora18-1186371-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"historical wedding theme\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>George I\u2019s coronation in 1714 started the Georgian era in England. The Regency period, specifically, lasted from 1811 until 1820. When King George III was too ill to sit on the throne, his son took control as Prince Regent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This short decade was not a long time to encompass all the changes in styles that took place. As a result, the years from 1795 to 1837 are often included in the Regency years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/inspire-me\/three-historical-wedding-themes\/annie-spratt-370989-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"historical wedding theme\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Architecture really sets the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Georgian period (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/vintage-weddings-georgian-venues\/\" target=\"_blank\">Georgian period<\/a> apart. The delightful classical architecture of the Palladian style makes an ideal setting for a wedding celebration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are plenty of restored Georgian mansions available for hire, with gardens and grounds to match. Superbly proportioned rooms complete with polished mahogany furniture, glittering chandeliers and shining silver make stunning backdrops to wedding photographs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5>Your wedding<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Embrace\nthe sophistication of the time and dazzle on your wedding day. The simple\nunderstated empire-line dresses of the period provide ample opportunity to create\na beautiful wedding gown. Meanwhile the men get the chance to indulge in tailcoats,\ncolourful waistcoats and top hats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sarah-houston.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.wedding-planning-secret.com\/posts\/historical-sarah-houston.jpg\" alt=\"historical wedding theme\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside\nfrom magnificent buildings and stunning gowns, a proper Georgian-theme wedding encourages\nfew guests so you can spend more lavishly on the ones you have. The Regency\nwedding breakfast was actual breakfast food, and the wedding cake stuffed with\nbooze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Weddings in Georgian times were always announced in the newspaper. You might send your invitations in a similar style. Likewise, you could do up all of your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/wedding-stationery\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"wedding stationery (opens in a new tab)\">wedding stationery<\/a> in a similar way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><strong>A Victorian wedding theme: bric-a-brac,\nknick-knacks and much, much more<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/lisa-adams-cakes-wedding-wedding-suppliers-buckinghamshire.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/inspire-me\/three-historical-wedding-themes\/Lisa-Adams-cakes.jpg\" alt=\"historical wedding theme\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5>The history<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rd.com\/culture\/something-old\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue (opens in a new tab)\">Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue<\/a>; the Victorians loved their knick-knacks and superstitions.<em> <\/em>Marry in the month of May, and you\u2019ll surely rue the day, so it\u2019s much better to try June instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/inspire-me\/three-historical-wedding-themes\/jez-timms-761-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"historical wedding theme\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re\na girlie girl who loves beautifully ornate dresses then the Victorian period\nmay well be your best choice. Imagine a big bustle, frills, ruches and tucks,\nall set off with lace. With the guys in top hats and a frock coat, what could\nbe better?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is\nwell known that Queen Victoria\u2019s wedding dress changed fashions for her era and\nmodern times. In fact, up until this time a black wedding gown would have been\npreferred as it was easier to hide the dirt on. The dresses of this era were\nlong, often with a trailing train, and lace came into fashion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/kiss-xx-bridal-boutique-wedding-dresses-suits-staffordshire.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/inspire-me\/three-historical-wedding-themes\/Kiss-xx-2.jpg\" alt=\"historical wedding theme\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5>Your wedding<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>And so, a historical Victorian theme wedding dress may be one you were planning on wearing anyway. However, most dresses of that time included sleeves. If that is not your style, opt for a warm shawl instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, find\na neo-Gothic Victorian extravaganza of a country house and you have the ideal\nsetting for your Victorian theme. Many country houses from this period have\nbeen carefully renovated and are decorated and furnished to fit the period. To\nhelp set the scene, why not hire a horse and carriage to take you to the church\nand back?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/the-horse-drawn-carriage-company-wedding-transport-west-sussex.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img src=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/images.theweddingsecret.co.uk\/magazine\/inspire-me\/three-historical-wedding-themes\/the-horse-drawn-carriage-company.jpg\" alt=\"historical wedding theme\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>One\ntradition of the Victorian wedding you may wish to copy is the wedding ring.\nAlthough it was typical that only the bride wore one, she had the date and the\ncouple\u2019s initials engraved inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>A historical wedding theme offers an excellent way of expressing your individual taste and provides an endless resource for dress style, catering and celebration.
