Affordable Wedding Dresses: Medieval

From Guinevere to Maid Marion, the medieval theme is ideal for a wedding. A medieval wedding dress combines the two looks that brides are most often after; ethereal and elegant.

Medieval dresses most usually feature long, flowing sleeves, a fitted bodice and loose skirts. They vary from very simple to overly elaborate and anywhere in between. You can then add a circlet of something in your hair, like Julia Ormond in First Knight, to complete the look.

You can either go all out with the medieval theme or just have a touch of it in your dress, such as long sleeves. Either way, medieval wedding dresses are beautiful and, best of all, also affordable. I've selected five lovely medieval style wedding dresses that are cheap yet great quality.

Mara Medieval Wedding Dress - Etsy

This Renaissance Gown from Etsy seller FrockFollies is ideal for a bride who wants to do the medieval theme properly (not sure why the groom in the picture is in a Victorian get up though). FrockFollies are specialists in medieval and period dresses and this one is a great example of the attention to detail. It's made out of ivory crushed velvet and features red trimming.

The back detail is lovely with the lace fastenings. Unbelievably, this dress is under £200!
Little tip; this is best worn for winter weddings, you're likely to boil in it in the summer.
