Weddings and Lease
Wedding
Out of the Eastern Wing, the Ceremony Chamber can be reached. The chamber is decorated by well-preserved murals picturing guards and a detail of castle main gate at the beginning of 17 century. The ceiling is decorated with painted lock tiling. On the walls, historical portraits can be seen. The Loket castle offers four possibilities of the wedding ceremony.
Exceptional Moments, Exceptional Place Basic Version
The ceremony lasts approximately 20 minutes. The officiants wear period costumes. The newlyweds receive two Gothic chalices and a commemorative certificate. The ceremony is accompanied by recorded historical music.
When a Genuine Knight Gets Married Possibility I
The basic version of the ceremony is enhanced with knightly duels. The wedding procession is welcomed at the castle gate by the lord of the castle and escorted by a group of knights to the ceremonial hall. After the ceremony, there is a sword-fighting performance, and the knightly escort accompanies the wedding party back to the castle gate. The ceremony is accompanied by recorded historical music. Total duration: approximately 45 minutes.
Music of True Bards Possibility II
The full Version I ceremony is complemented by live music performed by a period bard playing medieval melodies.
Medieval Wedding as It Should Be Possibility III
The full Version II ceremony is further enriched with performances by sword fighters and a period bard in the knight's hall of the castle, where seating at a banquet table is available (catering is provided by the wedding party). The program lasts approximately 90 minutes—45 minutes for the Version II ceremony and an additional 45–60 minutes in the knight's hall, where the wedding guests can enjoy a performance titled Cherchez la femme ("Look for the woman behind it all").
