April's Scottish Renaissance Wedding Page

This page will detail all the preparations for, and details of, my wedding, which took place on April 21, 2001. I hope it helps others who are planning a fantasy/Scottish/Renaissance/Medieval wedding. And PLEASE, if anyone has any suggestions or links or anything I don't have here, please let me know....it would be very helpful!

My mother and I made my dress. Click on the link below to see what it looks like. I had fairy wings in place of a train or veil, and they were lovely! I have several sets of pictures back, and they're posted under Wedding Attire! I did kind of a cross between Guinevere and Titiana (apparently, according to legend, Oberon was the son of Ceasar and Morgan LeFay). More Medieval, still with wings.

6/25/02 - Well, I'd like to thank everyone for their warm wishes and kind comments on this page. Unfortunately, while the wedding was pretty much perfect, the marriage wasn't, and Robert and I are now divorced. It's not as bad as it seems - we've parted on friendly terms; we just weren't meant to get married! Everything's for the best, though - that's my philosophy! I'm leaving this page up because I've had so many people email me to tell me how much the pics and info helped them plan their weddings. I'm still adding links to it as I find them - there are some great new ones under "wedding dresses" - check 'em out!

1/2/01 - I've got the material for my dress! It's a gorgeous cream colored satin with gold brocade roses! This will be used for the main part of the dress, and the inset will be a simple cream satin. My matron of honor's material is tone on tone green "brocade"ish satin. I have also finished all but one kilt and all of the shirts. My brother (who is going to be in my honor guard) tried it on, and he looked great! (Although he didn't like having to lie on the floor to put on the kilt!) There are pics of him on the Ceremony page!

My groom, Robert, wore a Great Kilt and a man's Leine. Our honor guard wore the same. I had a matron of honor, and Robert had a best man, and the only other attendants were 6 guys, who all carried swords and did the arch for us to walk under at the beginning and end of the ceremony, and knelt in a semi-circle behind us (facing the officiant) during the ceremony.

Please check out my jewelry shop, Knightime Creations. I make all sorts of jewelry, and specialize in fantasy, gothic, and Renaissance style custom pieces. My current inventory can be seen and purchased at my Etsy and Artfire shops. Also, I'm a member of a two person Renaissance/Celtic music duo named the Tulstin Troubadours, and we have a CD called "Rennies Of Unusual Sound". It has a mixture of instrumentals and vocals, with all sorts of instruments (my boyfriend, Mark, plays harp, whistle, recorder, and panpipes while I play flute, whistle, bodhran, harp, and bowed psaltery, and we both sing). You can hear samples on our website. If you're near central Texas and would like us to play for your wedding, please email Mark. Any other questions, please email me.
