Services for a Medieval or Renaissance Wedding

Wanting to complete the picture?

If having your dream gown in a period style just isn't enough, why not theme your entire wedding to make it a Medieval or Renaissance Fantasy!

We can put you in touch with a range of suppliers and entertainers who specialise in this field, from musicians and other performers, right down to very special, hand-illuminated display certificates.

Florent Vidal Photographe

This truly superb Sydney photographer was responsible for our wedding photos (take a look in the Wedding Gallery). Florent started his career as a Travel photojournalist, so if you'd like your wedding photos (or portfolio) to capture the moment rather than the cliché, he's your man! We cannot recommend him highly enough for quality and service.

Check out his portfolio and packages online at www.fidalphoto.com or give him a call.

The Perfect Reception Centre - Victoria House, Bexley NSW

Let Tas and Peter, the brothers who run it, walk you through organising your dream reception. The food is superb, the service excellent, and the prices extremely reasonable by any standard. Plus, they are open to alterations in the menu with very little extra cost.

Commemorative Wedding Certificates

As a very special reminder of your wedding day, we can produce a hand-painted commemorative, wedding certificate in a range of period illuminated and calligraphic styles.

NB: This is not a legal document - please see your state Registry Office for official documentation.

Why not make it a surprise? Call us to enquire, or with your own ideas: (02) 4782 7394

A Touch of Theatre

For an extra touch of drama, why not have your "knight in shining armour" dubbed at the altar?

At the "...speak now, or forever hold your peace." point in the ceremony, a noble king (one of our actors) will stand up from the congregation. Of course the groom may not marry such a noble lady unless he be of a similar rank! Then he will stride forward and dub the groom "knight", presenting him with a special certificate, before allowing the ceremony to continue!

Don't forget to mention us when you book!


Giving notice for a wedding party.

We want your special day to be perfect, and with so many people to outfit, and so many special supplies to source, that takes time.

We ask that you please try to give us a minimum of six months notice for a bridal gown and outfit for the groom. If you require a full wedding party to be outfitted (bride, groom, bridesmaids, groomsmen, mother and father of the bride and groom) then we ask for 8 to 12 months' notice.

In certain circumstances, this requirement may be waived, but only for the simpler styles of gown. Please check with us if your dream is still to have a period wedding and time is tight: we may be able to slot you in!
