Medieval themed parties are great for adult birthdays and children parties. However, I attend the most awesome medieval themed bachelorette party. A friend of mine wanted the bachelorette party she was hosting to be fun and unique. By throwing a renaissance party, complete with minstrels and castle motif, she came up with a fantastic way to celebrate the bride's impending marriage to her price charming. I didn't realize how much fun you could have at a bachelorette party.
How To Host A Medieval Bachelorette Party
Begin with renting event facilities that have themed rooms, this is a good way to go medieval without to much trouble. Then hire caterers, rent costumes and hire musicians to play Renaissance music during the party. This type of bachelorette party can go to the extreme and be a full blown medieval experience or you can just do a bit by using castle cutouts and decorating with medieval themed items. The party I attend was full blown medieval, right down to the names we all had to call the bride "Lady Kathrine".
Mail out party invitations with a medieval design that say this party is for Lady {insert the brides name}. Be sure to tell guests that it will have a medieval themed and where costumes can be rented, along with the usual invitation information (time and place). If your doing this as the bachelorette party (which tend to be smaller groups), you can for-go the formal invitations. Instead call the party guests and tell them what time the limousine will pick them up to go to the costume shop. This way everyone can go to the costume shop together right before the party to pick out their outfits. That is what our party of six did and it was just as much fun as the party itself!
Getting Your Medieval Bachelorette Party Started
I enjoyed the full-blown medieval festivities and it's defiantly not as hard as you think. Just start by finding a costumes shops that will have the the appropriate attire for all party guests or at least the host and bachelorette. Food is easy when you have the caterer prepare turkey legs, crusty breads, fruits and cheeses along with other medieval table fare. Of course you will need drinks wine and ale are a must. You stop there or really go all out with the theme. It is really up to you. I loved the really elaborate party I attended but even a simple medieval bacherolette party would be fun.
Every bachelorette should have a medieval party. After all, she has her prince charming why not a party fit for a princess. In fact, I think everyone should go medieval and have a renaissance party, even if it just a kids party with toy swords and kids playing knight of the round table.
