Medieval Feast!

What a production! Getting ready for the Medieval Feast at Trinity Cathedral was an adventure. I made our costumes. It was a humbling experience and quite frustrating at times but the end results were a hit with everyone! I got many compliments on our outfits. They were even quite comfortable, although I don't quite have the knack for wearing a veil. I don't know how our ancestors ever managed to move around much and get anything done with all that material to manage! Everyone kept stepping on my gown's slight train. They eventually learned not to walk too close behind me. We had a 4 course dinner plus dessert, with a spiked mulled wine reception before dinner and all the wine and beer you wanted throughout the feast. The attendants were attentive to our every need. The music was lovely and the 'Fairy Tale' was cute. They involved quite a few members of the audience. It was fun to see all the different types of costumes. Most people were in costume. Quite an event!
