How to Dress for A Medieval Wedding
Dressing for a medieval wedding can be very difficult. The majority of people who choose to have their wedding in medieval styles are those who have a lot of interest in medieval re-enactment. This means that the clothing will probably be extremely nice quality and make. I will share some ideas about how to dress for your Medieval wedding and you can have a reference if you are interested in this fashion topic.
First, Ask the bride and groom what period and nationality of costuming they're going for, and how strict they're being. Medieval can be anything from 900 (kilts and loose gowns) to 1600 (neck high corsets and hoop skirts). If you show up in an Elizabethan gown and everyone else is sporting basic tunics and pants, it will look silly.
Second, Once you ascertain what sort of costuming period you need, do a little research. Find out if it will be cheaper to make it (if you have the skills for that) or cheaper to buy it online. If you are making costuming for you and your family, look into patterns that will let you make an outfit out of the same cloth. Then you can buy in bulk, cheaper. Also, you'll be able to spot your family easily in the crowd despite strange clothing you're not used to.
Third, Once you have your costume, look up articles online about how to wear it. Men: Don't tuck in your shirt, strap a belt across it. And wear the belt under your belly, if you have a belly. It just looks silly when someone tries to girdle in their gut with a leather strap. It should go where your pants belt goes. Ask someone who does medieval re-enactment or a friend who is a history buff to help you try on the clothing. Some things that look like they go on easily don't. Corsets lace in the back, belts wrap around you twice, and men look very silly if they tuck in their shirt, since the shirt has a billowy loose bottom.
Last, wearing comfortable shoes. One of the best parts of medieval clothing is that you can wear loose pants or skirts that hide your shoes entirely, and medieval clothing never, ever had high heels until well after the Victorian era. Do not, under any circumstances, wear a traditional gown with heels. You'll be very off balance, more likely to fall, and look ridiculous.

Medieval Clothing Features of Women and Men
Do you want to be a medieval mysterious female or gentleman? If you are want and i think you will interested in my this article. I will simply introduce some information about the Medieval women and men clothing features as the following and you can have a reference of if you are interested in the Medieval clothing fashion.
About the women clothing features: Wealthy early Renaissance women wore a three-piece dress with an undercoat, bodice and robe. They used expensive material such as velvet and silk. When poorer women caught on to the fashion trend, the rich would change their style to keep the appearance of a higher social structure, states Real Armor of God. Thus one-piece dresses became popular, and eventually high-class women transformed their outfits with the inclusion of a vest, hoop or collar. The less fortunate would wear pawned clothing or homemade items.
About the men clothing features: Men tended to wear a square-shaped clothing item that was strengthened with the inclusion of thick shoulder pads. Real Armor of God notes that their legs were covered with padded breeches. The shoes were squared. Men wore a brimmed hat. Like the women's clothing, theirs also showed their power and wealth. Men often wore expensive material, with horsehair and fur trimming.
