Recreating the past for live events, TV and film

Fantastic historical entertainment for themed weddings

Dare to be different! Stop being boringly conventional and break the mould!

There can be more to life than the usual dull wedding reception and overloud disco!

Make your wedding even more memorable!

History has so much more to offer!

Whether you prefer colourful historical characters, entertainers or a full-blown historical pageant, we can assist. Like the idea of a shining medieval knight on horseback or a redcoat guard of honour - or perhaps even Roman gladatorial combat? EventPlan can arrange it!

Every wedding is different and so our displays are tailored to your particular requirements. then just leave it all to us. We source the performers, set up the logistics and co-ordinate on the day so all you have to do is enjoy the show!

We can arrange, for example, a full medieval style wedding breakfast/reception entertainment including:

Meeting and greeting

Knight to act as Master of Ceremonies, make announcements, etc
Fire - Eating
Juggling (either one or two jugglers)
Fighting Knights
Live music with minstrels)
Medieval Dance instruction
Traditional Wedding superstitions and beliefs of a bygone era
Storytelling
Games for children if required
Background music of the period (sound system and CD's, etc.)
Gift for the Bride / Groom/ Mothers in Law 

All with suitable props and tentage.

Here are some other activities that can turn an average wedding reception into something everybody would remember::

bullet

Have a go archery (although only with non-drinkers for obvious reasons!)

bullet

Music, song & dance (Medieval, Tudor, C17th-19th), with a chance to learn and take part in the dances

bullet

Photo opportunities with knights, fine ladies, soldiers, pirates, cowboys and other characters

bullet

“Combat” displays and  live stunts, from Gladiators  to jousting armoured medieval knights...but please note that these displays definitely don't offer audience participation as combat, horses and the like can be dangerous! So we'd arrange a safe display area with excellent viewing for guests.

bullet

Learning how to be a warrior or soldier through the ages with safe "weapons training"

bullet

Children’s activities and games to keep junior guests entertained!

We can even arrange for appropriate period costume (and, of course,  period wedding dresses) to be made so everyone can enter into the spirit of the occasion.

Plus of course a huge variety of different arena displays to watch and enjoy. See Historical displays and Non-historical displays. Our events can brilliantly liven up your day, so why not consider stepping back in time and exploring the many options available?

Bookings are always subject to availability and can be limited during Summer months due to performers' other  commitments. So if you are planning something special, contact us early on to see what we can do to make your special day spectacular!!!

What does it cost?

Prices vary according to the scale and duration of the entertainments, and distance to the venue travelled by performers. But the one thing we definitely don't do is add a naught on the end of our price just because the word "wedding" is mentioned! We strive to offer you the very best possible value as, let's face it, weddings aren't usually cheap to arrange. Realistically, we are looking at about £1000 for something really worthwhile, and more (but not necessarily too much more) if you really want to push the boat out. We believe that what we offer is exciting, memorable and extremely good value for money, so why not call us on 01509 815645 to discuss ideas & options?
