More About handfasting
Handfasting is the practise of symbolising a couple’s commitment to each other by binding their hands together. Handfasting cords are not attached to any religion in particular and there really is no right or wrong way of using them. Recently, more and more couples are adding handfasting ceremonies to their wedding, engagement, or anniversary celebration due the degree of flexibility and personal touch they bring to a ceremony, as well as a tangible memento of the moment they ‘tied the knot’.
