Are you the biggest fan of the biggest TV show in the world—Game of Thrones? If you’re a hardcore Thronee, you can incorporate this epic show into your big day and organize a magical wedding that will leave all your guests in awe. Hopefully, your big day will not resemble the Red Wedding or the Purple Wedding but will be filled with feasting, song, and cheer. Here’s how to throw a perfect (and casualty-free) GoT-inspired wedding.
Start with themed invites

First impressions start with your wedding invitations, so inform everyone about your big day and Game of Thrones wedding theme. Think somewhere along the lines of authentic parchment, burned details to honor the Mother of Dragons and some timeless quotes from the show. Even people who haven’t watched Game of Thrones will love the famous “You are the Moon of my life” quote. Make sure to mark the date, venue location, and dress code. You don’t have to force your guests to splurge on vintage dresses and knightly chainmail, but it would be nice if each guest threw in a few medieval details into their outfits just to make your photos spot on.
Choose the right venue

You need something epic for your GoT-inspired wedding—a simple tent will not suffice. Instead of taking a traditional route, you can rent a castle and have your guests enjoy the actual royal setting. Not many castles come with an actual Iron Throne, but no matter what sort of medieval building you choose, it will be perfect for your big day. You’ll get bonus points if there’s a massive tree on the premises where you can say your vows. If you want to go into details and stay true to the show, remember that the show was filmed in many locations, from Iceland and Canada to Morocco and Spain, so you can have a super fun destination wedding if you’re ready to splurge. If you can’t afford to take your wedding party to these destinations, book a honeymoon in one of the filming locations.
Look the part
No matter if you’re a die-hard Targaryen supporter, Jon Snow stan, or just can’t resist the deliciously evil Cersei, you need to look your part. You can take a medieval approach to your wedding dress and opt for something lacy with dramatic cascading sleeves. If things get a little chilly, like in Winterfell, a faux fur cape will provide you with warmth yet not look too costume-y. You can also complete your look with a gorgeous wedding tiara or crown that will give you that royal look fit for a queen. Something with crystals like a KOGOGO Quartz Crystal Mermaid Tiara Crown will fit a Night Queen and a King’s Landing lady. Finally, the one and only queen, Daenerys, will undoubtedly approve of a thick braid.
Satisfy your sweet tooth with a fantasy cake

You're in luck if you’re tired of red velvets and the classic bride and groom topiaries. Today, top bakers can make all sorts of cakes with any motif you can think of. You can go with a dragon-scale pattern and three little dragon eggs on top to fit your theme. Or you can replicate Sansa’s favorite cake flavor, refreshing lemon, and decorate the entire thing with delicate High Garden golden roses. Looking for something very intricate and impressive? Just look at this iron beauty or design an Iron Throne cake with the two of you sitting side by side—it will leave the perfect taste in everyone’s mouth. Pro tip: If you’re a Lannister, just get a food tastere.
It’s time to feast!

Don’t disappoint your patient guests, and feed them well to prevent grumpy faces and wedding brawls. To stay true to your theme, go very hearty with your food choices and let the wine flow. Think Arys’s oysters and clams appetizers, King’s Landing royal roast, Wildling mushroom pies, and Lannister golden potatoes. Serve wine to honor Tyrion and Cersei and supply plenty of ale.
Nature-inspired decoration

This is maybe the most exciting part of any wedding planning process,; with themed weddings like this, you’ll have a lot of freedom for experimentation. If your venue allows open flame, you can fill the hall with candles and add natural elements like dark greenery, muted wildflowers, and knotted driftwood. These elements are perfect for table centerpieces, and they will perfectly hug the food platters and look amazing next to silver wine cups. Finish your decor with natural linen napkins and a spray of artificial snow over your decoration.
With a wedding like this, you will tie the knot in a festive and fun atmosphere and be the subject of many talks months and years after your fabulous wedding. Congratulations on your wedding and Valar Morghulis!
