Have a wedding just like an outlaw

27/06/2011
It is common knowledge that everyone has their favourite hero or heroine and this was no exception for a couple of Robin Hood fans who travelled hundreds of miles just to marry in St. Mary’s church.

Why we hear you ask? The reason being is because St Marys Church located in Edwinstone, Nottingham was the place where legend says that Robin Hood is supposed to have married his Maid Marian. The couple’s journey began in Holland and they ended up travelling a fair few miles to achieve their dream wedding.

The ceremony featured archery and minstrel music followed by a medieval banquet. Their wedding cake was also slightly different to most couples because the usual figurines of the bride and groom were replaced by statues of Robin Hood and his Maid Marian. They completed their ceremony with the traditional slicing of the Wedding Cake but with a slight twist – the couple chose to cut it with a medieval sword!

Would you like to visit St Marys Church that supposedly features in the legends of Robin Hood? Why not choose England Holidays or UK coach tours to Nottinghamshire to see this little piece of medieval history. Who knows, you may be lucky in that your loved one may too pop that special question and you’ll soon be looking for wedding venues?
