Princess Tammy

Yesterday, boyfriend and I went to this renaissance fair to go watch my favorite Auntie get married. Everyone was even dressed up in renaissance costume. I had a somewhat princess type dress on.

It truly was a beautiful ceremony. It wasn't your traditional wedding where the bride and groom get all fussied up and march down an isle. It was held outside by this little creek in the shade. (shade being important because it was HOT outside.) There was a group of people that were part of this inner circle. We all had our auras cleansed of negative energy with sage. Once we were purified, we formed our circle.

Part of the ceremony included calling upon the elements of the North, South, East and West. They symbolism earth, water, fire, and wind. (I think, I'm close on that any way) deities each took turns calling them into our circle for the ceremony. Everyone who was part of the circle held hands to complete the circle.

Then the lady who married them tied the not (seriously) around their hands. It was really cool and touching at the same time. I got teary eyed during the wedding which doesn't surprise me.

After the wedding, we all went to the ale house for a couple beers. After that we watched some jousting and some sword fights. The fair was so much fun. Exhausting because of the heat, but fun. The costumes were outstanding. I could have happily sat in the shade and just watched people for hours.

I'm really glad my Auntie had this type of a wedding. I had no clue how much fun these types of fairs are. Plus her wedding was extremely unique and suited to them specifically.
