Embrace Scottish Intimate Wedding Ceremony Traditions

Shanine and Dan went for a couple of Scottish intimate wedding ceremony traditions:
Oathing Stone Tradition
The Oathing Stone tradition involves the couple placing their hands upon a stone while making their vows. It symbolizes the solidity and endurance of their commitment. The stone can be a family heirloom or a special stone chosen for this purpose.
Handfasting
Handfasting is an ancient Celtic tradition where the couple’s hands are tied together with ribbons or cords, symbolizing their commitment and unity. It can be included as a part of the wedding ceremony, usually after the exchange of vows or rings. At this beautiful ceremony, it was the traditional tartan scarf that Shanine and Daniel used to tie the knot together.
Experience the Tranquility of Glencoe Lochan
Glencoe Lochan was very quiet at the ceremony time with beautiful water reflections. The usual spot was a little pier on the loch where the ceremony is performed. It’s just a perfect spot for an elopement or an intimate, small family group wedding.
