I have my parents handfasting cloth :] it sits at my alter.

Ben W :

is this where the phrase "tying the knot" comes from?

Anthony Bryan818 :

Personally, I prefer the dual hand clasp form. It visually explains each role in the relationship. On the outside, the husband's hand is on top, signifying protection. The wife's is beneath, signifying support. But on the inside, the more intimate part, the roles are reversed. The wife protects, the husband supports.

J :

Imagine now hanging that over the bed

Also why it’s good luck if it rains on the wedding day bc the water makes a tighter know 🥹

I O N A M A R Y E 🤍 :

I remember my mom and dads hand fasting, we were in a circle, I was only 5 and we had “witches” stood with us! I believe it’s a pagan tradition? 22 years ago now!

Bridie 🌿💫 :

my husband and I had a private handfasting at a waterfall before our wedding, when the astrology was right. it hangs on our wall now 🥰 very special moment

expired :

I’m pagan, my partner isn’t.. we got eloped while we save for our wedding because we want a big celebration with not a lot of people and this is the one thing I’ve wanted since day 1 of talking about it

chai10723🎤 :

Literally why it’s called tying the knot

Abbi :

My husband and I did this at our wedding. We had mostly a traditional ceremony but we included a hand fasting ceremony where our daughter and wedding party wrapped the cords around our hands and then we pulled our hands through to tie them all together

Anthony Valencia129 :

It’s the unbreakable vow 😭 love this

Salem 16 :

yo también creí que era un juramento inquebrantable🥺

Calliefrigo :

I’m pagan ❣ can’t wait to do this at my wedding

🧿🌙Shelby Lynn🌙🧿 :

My husband and I decided to express our love and commitment through our actions rather than spoken vows. I helped our officiant create a script for us to bless the elements before our handfasting. The room was filled with tears and the soft patter of rain against the venue. Afterwards, he and I laid our cord in the rain, sealing our knot for eternity. 💕

Мария :

i did this as well🩷

Faith :

it's the most romantic thing from all romantic thing❤

B.C. Rose :

we did this for our ceremony. we had our iner circle place 4 cords over our hands each representing our love and intent for the future. my mom spoke and tied us. after we said our vows we tied the knot. 8 years married 10 years together ❤

Faron :

If this doesnt happen at my wedding, im not getting married. I want to hang the tied cord over the entryway to my home 💕
