Dad Tip #11: Replace the Wedding DJ with Renaissance Fair Minstrels

If you’re hitting the wedding season summer circuit, you may tire of the same reception songs on heavy rotation. Sometimes you gotta go really old school to go new school.

Top five reasons methinks the minstrels shall provide mirth and merriment at the reception, with melodies that doth lift the heart and get thy party started:

  1. You can book these basement dwellers at the last minute – they don’t usually have plans on Saturday nights. 
  2. They’re cheap – they work for mead
  3. In addition to rocking the lute, they probably have some badass archery skills… bonus.
  4. Skip the Chicken Dance and get your medieval groove on to Scarborough Fair
  5. When was the last time you saw men in tights?
