Make A Medieval Party Perfect Wirth Drinks And Gifts
A medieval party is a creative and different way to celebrate a birthday. Consider using something different as the invitation; like a driftwood. The USPS has to delivery anything with the proper postage even an unusual party invitation! So, tape the party info to the driftwood and wrap it well or drop it in a poster tube-style mailer. Try putting just a Facebook page or website address on the driftwood; then have the party info on the webpage. This will "Get that party started!" An invitation like this works for any fantasy or hero party too. Keep in mind the invite sets the tone of the party. It's is the first clue the guests are given on how fabulous the event will be.
Get Medieval party decorations and supplies to coordinate with the theme. Place party decorations outside the home (or other venue) along with inside the party venue.
The variety of Medieval Drinks are limitless; just use some imagination and creativity. One idea is to serve drinks traditional during medieval times, such as ale, mead and sweetened spiced wine. Another popular drink during the era was water sweetened with honey. Serve your drinks in festive mugs and tankards like the ones used at feasts during the medieval period. The more modern day drinks like bottled beer, sodas and mixed drinks also bode well at a medieval party.
There is a wide variety of Medieval inspired gifts to choose from; for instance a sword like King Arthur's legendary Excalibur would make a great gift. Many replica swords from the medieval period can be purchased online and at Renaissance fairies. A sword letter opener makes for a more practical gift for every day use. Period costumes can also make a great gift, such as dresses, peasant tights, tunics, or chain mail and helmets. Gifts with Celtic designs like notebooks and coffee cups make for good medieval gifts. Don't forget that food makes a great gift on any occasion. Gingerbread cake was a common food for Christmas time, and shortbreads were also popular. Present these food items in a basket for an authentic touch. If the receiver is a music lover, they may like to receive a musical instrument popular during the medieval period such as a medieval flute, a lute, or a pipe and tabor. Include an instructional book, CD or DVD for the instrument you give.
Be sure to give each guest some really good Medieval themed party favors. Crowns and tiaras would also be adorable for the kids. Plan ahead and your event will be a success.
