The Quaich Ceremony is a traditional Scottish drinking vessel, and its name derives from Gaelic cuach simply meaning ‘cup’. However, the quaich was not used for just any drink. The quaich was reserved for a good old dram of whisky or brandy!
The hand fasting ceremony is a Celtic tradition where the couples stand face to face as their hands are tied together by 12 ribbons and 1 cord that each stand for a different part of their marriage to each other. As your hands are bound, you can recite words that express your commitment of eternal love to one another (an additional fee for materials applies).
Same-Sex Ceremonies or as we call it “A Wedding” There is no difference. The couple can pick any of the traditional or non-traditional ceremonies.
The use of a Unity Candle is a great way to add to your regular ceremony.
God’s Knot is a great way to add a very special ceremony as part of your perfect wedding service. You can find supplies signs and cords at places on Etsy and other Internet sellers.
A Sand ceremony or even a Hand Fasting ceremony can add a special touch to your wedding service.
During one of the three ceremonies the couple gives a rose or lei to both parents or the groom gives a rose or lei to his new Mother-in-Law and the Bride gives hers to her new Mother-in-Law. This ceremony is a great way to start the service by involving two people that mean the world to you!
While the couple are holding hands, I lay my hand over the couples hands, and say a very special blessing over them. The hands and ring fingers hold a lot of significance. The hands in a relationship are used as a comforting touch and also the way two people help each other through out the years and since it is known that the ring fingers have a direct line to the heart.
