On November 9, 2025 my partner and I ventured to the lovely Lost Unicorn to take part in something we had been planning for quite some time ... something more traditional that pays attention to the meaningful Celtic connections that we both have in our lives.

The Celtic tradition of handfasting is the binding of a couples hands to symbolize a spiritual
and physical union of their lives, hands of the couple tied together with ribbons
that symbolize different aspects of their union.
Lives and spirits joined in love and trust, hearts of the Claddagh turned
inward to symbolise the permanence of the promises made
"May your hands be forever clasped in friendship and your hearts joined forever in love"

The outfits we chose to wear are the 'Celtic ritual' sets from Faunus

We have had a Disney wedding and a service in a Scottish church but making this commitment to one another in a place that means so much to us and in a way that honours our Celtic lineage makes this ritual all the more meaningful
