Mediaeval Arms and Armour
WEDDING SWORDS
The wedding swords shown on this page are beautifully acid-etched with the names of the Bride and Groom
and the wedding date, this is a standard feature on all of our swords. The names and birthdates of children,
grandchildren, etc can be added as required at a small additional cost as can family crests and/or motifs.
These swords can become family heirlooms and, although they are all wedding swords on this page, similar
commemorative swords can be made for other significant occasions e.g. christenings, significant birthdays,
anniversaries, retirements etc. The blades of the wedding swords are made from stainless steel with brass
quillons (crossguard) and pommel (weight at end of hand grip), the hand grip is made from Western Australian Jarrah.
The quillons and pommel can be silver or gold plated to your requirements, please contact us for pricing. The swords
are all approxiamately 750mm (2'6") long and come in a decorated gift box.
Ray Morris of Wedding Swords also makes other items which can be used to add a special touch to a wedding
- for instance handmade goblets and handcrafted metal artificial flowers.
Ray is also able to offer residents and visitors to Perth, Western Australia a wedding hire service which
includes blacksmith-made candelabras and even whole suits of armour.
Beautifully Intricate or Simply Elegant:
Displayed at left is a beautiful wedding sword with a polished and etched blade, an elaborately shaped and etched cross-guard (or "quillions") and a decorative sword-knot cord with tassels.
If you prefer, you can choose a sword with a crossguard of simpler design such as the one shown in the picture above. This has the same etched blade and hardwood hilt as the sword shown at left.
...and another custom Wedding Sword (tassel not shown).
The Wedding:
A wedding sword adds a "finishing touch" to a Mediaeval-theme wedding ceremony or banquet... and that cake won't stand a chance.
The Rose:
The rose, handcrafted from steel, makes an appropriate and symbolic gift for a wedding - combining delicacy and strength.. and enduring beauty. The rose, like the wedding swords, would make a fine heirloom to pass on in years to come.
