Attire
Our wedding shall carry a gentle theme inspired by the late Middle Ages and the graceful Renaissance.
We would be most delighted should you choose to honor this spirit with flowing evening robes, elegant gowns, or a subtle detail in your attire that nods to this bygone age.
Yet let it be known: there is no need for full historical garb nor elaborate costume
— dress in what brings you comfort and noble grace.
Kindly bear in mind, should fair weather bless our day, the ceremony and celebrations thereafter shall take place in the castle garden. Therefore, suitable footwear and garments to shield you from any chill winds are warmly recommended.
