Here is an opportunity for your guests to have something to do when they aren’t attending wedding events. If your wedding falls on a weekend in October or November in the Charlotte Area then tell your guests about this amazing opportunity. This is great for local guests as it is something they will be able to enjoy year after year, but also great for non local guests as they may not know the area or what to do during down time. Guests who are not bridal party normally have more free time then they expect andthis is a great way to spend time!
Located just north of Charlotte in Huntersville is a village where imagination, fantasy, and history burst to life. It is a place where adults can feel and act like children while children are treated as royalty. It is a magical realm where you will forget about your daily cares and enjoy the magic of a simpler time and place. It is the Carolina Renaissance Festival and Artisan Marketplace.
Introduced to the Charlotte area in 1994, the Carolina Renaissance Festival and Artisan Marketplace contained just six acres of village attractions. Now, the event has grown to become one of the largest renaissance themed events in the country as well as one of the largest attractions in the Carolinas.
Operating 7 consecutive Saturdays and Sundays in October and November, the 22-acre tree-lined Renaissance Festival village is nestled amongst 245 acres of beautiful forest coated in autumn colors. A perfect setting for a fictional, story-book renaissance village filled with charming cottages, castles, kitchens and pubs, all with simulated architecture and design of a 16th century European village. A fictional village called Fairhaven – a peaceful shire where pleasure and celebration rules the day.
It is within the walls of Fairhaven that villagers, artists, crafts-people, musicians, performance troupes and food vendors have gathered together to create a marketplace festival in celebration for the arrival of their visiting King and Queen.
