Renaissance Dresses for Merry Weddings

One of the most popular wedding trends happening right now is Renaissance weddings. Couples all over the world are creating their perfect fantasy wedding by wearing Renaissance dresses and outfits, decorating their ceremony and reception locations with Renaissance-styled décor, and using real Renaissance era music. These types of weddings not only allow the couple to perfectly encapsulate their unique personality; they also put a unique and fun spin on common wedding ceremonies. Renaissance weddings give those to be wed and their guests a small glimpse into the traditions and lifestyles of people who lived during the Renaissance period.

There are many different Renaissance dresses and styles you can choose when putting on a Renaissance wedding. Your style can vary depending on taste, “class” of your character, and weather. If you are to be portrayed as upper-class or from nobility, our Renaissance Nobility Velvet Dress is perfect. Inspired by the gorgeous portraits by famed Renaissance artist Lukas Cranach the Elder, this dress is ideal for autumn weddings.
