Handfasting is an ancient unity ritual that has joined couples in marriage for centuries. This is where the phrase "tying the knot" comes from! The ceremony is very similar to a traditional wedding, but with an added element: after the vows, the couple's hands are bound together with a cord that symbolizes the eternal bond of love. We are choosing to be married in this way because we want to symbolize becoming a team that is bound together by our love and devotion. We will keep the handfasting cord in our home as a reminder of our commitment to each other.
