Just wondered how all the other Pagan brides are getting on and if any more have joined us recently? We've settled on an interfaith celebrant (H2b is agnostic lol), shes lovely and I cant wait to start really planning our Celtic Handfasting, am desperate for ideas and suggestions though !
Friends since 1999, together since 2007 :D

Merry Meet Kat :)
Another Pagan bride :)
A celtic handfasting sounds lovely :) Me and my h2b were handfasted a coupld of years ago for a year and a day and now we are planning our civil ceremony and 'big' wedding for next year. I just wish handfasting was legal in England.
Will you be doing the legal bit too on your day or you just doing the handfasting?

Pagnism is a religion or for most a way of life, its hard to explain it on here as there are so many diferent types of a Pagan and each person sees it differently, your best bet is to google it :)
Handfasting is a pagan ceremony, just like you can have a christian, mslim, caholic, jewish wedding etc. The only thing is that handfasting isnt legalised yet in england which means a lot of pagans who want a legal wedding have to go for a civil ceremony.
I'm getting married in a unitarian church and she said that we could incorporate other faiths, and then suggested hand fasting - I didn't have a clue what she was on about!! Thank goodness for search engines.
If only life could be one long tea break

My Dad is a pagan, and when he was planning his wedding to his missus, they were going to have a handfasting ceremony in my nans garden, followed by a civil ceremony at the town hall. I thnk it would have been lovely. Wedding is cancelled now though, would have been lovely to see....

I'm having a Pagan Handfasting next Autumn. Luckily we can have a fully legal ceremony here in Scotland (I'm one of our 9 legal celebrants covering the whole of Scotland) more or less anywhere we like. We also welcome people travelling to Scotland for a legal Handfasting. BB Louise
