Vow Renewal & Celtic Wedding Ceremonies
Vow Renewals:
Renewal of vows is a lovely way to reaffirm your marriage commitments.
Celebrate a milestone anniversary, whether it is a first or a golden anniversary, with a special personal ceremony with family and friends. I have some beautiful and meaningful ceremonies for you to choose from.
Wedding Blessing/Commitment Ceremony:
If you have already been legally married in a registry office or abroad, celebrate with a bespoke ceremony among your family and friends. There are no restrictions on where this ceremony can be held so if you would like to start your celebration with a wedding ceremony to express your love and commitment and set the tone for your special day.
Celtic Weddings:
Celtic weddings date back to beyond 500 B.C. In Ancient Ireland handfasting known as “tying the knot“ was the most common wedding ceremony.
What Is Handfasting?
Handfasting is a promise made between a couple for a year and a day. At the end of that period, the couple can decide whether they wish to renew those promises or not.
The ceremony involves the tying of hands together with a cord, ceremonial cloth, or colourful ribbons to symbolize coming together and remaining together. It can be used as a declaration of intent.
Today couples also like to incorporate handfasting as a ritual into their wedding ceremony.
Elopement Ceremonies:
Many couples visiting Ireland and planning a renewal of vows, an elopement or an engagement ceremony at one of the many spectacular locations and venues throughout the country.
Please contact me, together we will follow your dreams with a romantic and intimate ceremony or a fun filled traditional Irish celebration.
I am available to conduct these ceremonies at short notice if my diary permits.
