A medieval fancy dress party with medieval costumes, medieval decor, medieval food and medieval song and dance, is always going to be amazing. It is a party that you need to put effort into, as the medieval theme, while easily recognisable, does take some work. We would say make sure that the medieval theme goes right through the party, so start off with invitations that have a medieval theme. You can find invitations online and send out e-invites really easily. Then, start with the costumes. Online fancy dress costumes are probably easiest for Medieval themes so go through the online sites, or go to a fancy dress costumes store, and buy accessories too. The accessories are a big part of the fun. And then get going with the actual party preparations.
Medieval party preparations
You might be having a party at home, buying costumes and doing all the decor on your own, and you might be hiring a big hall. Medieval parties are about lavishness and abundance. Generally there is one long table where all the food is piled, and we really do mean piled, with everyone seated and having a divine and over the top dinner! The wine flows and the plates that are emptied are continuously replaced. The Medieval days were days of big everything, big costumes, big wigs, big portions, big goblets of wine. Decor and food and drink are all hugely important, the costumes are extremely important, and then there is the music. Medieval dancing was such fun and while your party may lead to debauchery, Medieval days were quite decadent, you might just be dancing to disco too! Have a good selection of party music.
Go all out for a medieval costume party. Decorate, get the right food and drink. Buy your medieval costumes and get into the spirt of a great party.
