An ancient Celtic ritual, handfasting is making a magical comeback in modern weddings. ⁠ In our Traditions Issue, Irish celebrant @julie_muir_celebrant shares the history, the beauty, and the creative ways couples are making it their own. From colourful cords to heirloom fabrics and heartfelt vows. It’s romantic, visual, and the perfect way to add meaning to your ceremony.⁠ ⁠ Read the full story on Polka Dot Wisdom via the link in our bio. ⁠ ⁠ Photography: @larahotzphotography⁠ ⁠ [Image description: In this heartfelt moment, celebrant Julie Muir stands between a couple, smiling as she carefully wraps cream-coloured cords around their joined hands in a symbolic handfasting ritual. One wears a shimmering green textured suit jacket with black lapels and tailored black pants, the other a long-sleeved, fitted white gown adorned with sequins that catch the light. Julie’s floor-length dark green velvet dress adds richness to the scene, her long auburn hair falling loosely over her shoulders. Against a softly lit backdrop, the ceremony feels intimate, warm, and deeply meaningful. A modern celebration of love infused with ancient tradition.]⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #TheTraditionsIssue #FeelGoodWeddings #WeddingTraditions #ModernWedding #CulturalWeddings #InclusiveWeddings #WeddingInspo #AustralianWeddings #AustralianWedding #PolkaDotWisdom #WeddingPro #WeddingVendor #WeddingProfessional #WeddingInterview #Handfasting ⁠ ⁠
