1805 Royal Marine Officers Coat Project

[Post_Captain_Joe]

My beautifully talented fiancee and myself will eventually have a regency era themed wedding on board a tallship out of SF Bay. To that end, we're beginning to start helping folks assemble their attire. The wedding party on my side will be doing Full Dress Royal Navy Uniforms, 3 leftenants and a Marine Captain.

Please come follow along on my livejournal:

here is what the final complete kit will hopefully look like.


As always,
Your Obd't Servant
Captain Sir Thomas Capel

What a wonderful wedding idea and location! I look forward to seeing your progress, and eventually, photos from the event!
