Castle Theme Weddings: Enter A Timeless Realm

Theme weddings are everywhere! Brides are continuously looking for an original theme that is fun and fresh. For a romantic theme with a role-playing element, brides should consider a castle theme wedding. This theme is a blast to put together and even more fun to participate in. Most women would love to be treated like a princess and the castle theme wedding allows this to happen.

Brides choosing this theme can choose how they want to present it. One option is to use a princess style castle theme. This theme is very feminine and can go off much like a Cinderella wedding. Another option is to use a medieval sub theme. Going this route, brides can use more vintage castle style decorations.

An old style castle wedding should take place in an extremely old church or building. The older the location, the better the theme will come off. Buildings made of old stones are wonderful for this theme. The bride may choose to rent an old horse and carriage to bring her to the ceremony.

This works best for an outside castle wedding. Seeing the bride pull up in a castle theme horse and carriage will allow the guests to immediately feel the theme. If the wedding is indoors, the couple may choose to use the carriage for their departure.

The attire for a castle theme wedding is fairytale inspired. Brides should choose a dress with a long train, as no princess would be married in a simple gown. A fun way to add to the theme is to have the bride wear a tall cone shaped fairytale-princess veil instead of a traditional wedding veil. This accessory will fit the theme nicely and bring out the fairytale vibe. The groom should dress formally in a tuxedo or old fashion military inspired formals.

Castle theme invitations can be easy and creative. A great idea for an interesting invite is to make it look like an old scroll. Using old looking paper, the couple can get the wedding details written in traditional calligraphy. By rolling the finished invitation and securing it with twine, the couple has created a beautiful and theme inspired invitation for their guests.

A great way to decorate a castle theme wedding is with knights. Old-fashioned knights can be set up anywhere to add to the medieval feel of a castle wedding. Garlands of wildflowers are also a great accessory to use on pews and for ceiling wedding decor.

To convey the theme on the wedding cake, couples may choose to use a small cake castle decoration to top their cake . Beside serving as cake castle decoration, small castles can also be given away as wedding favors. These are great ways to tie the castle theme into the wedding reception.

A castle theme wedding is a great way for the wedding couple to have fun with their wedding. With its elegant old-fashioned style the couple is conveying feelings of longevity and romance into their wedding ceremony. So have fun planning a theme that is fit for a fairytale princess.
