Celtic art wedding projects

It's interesting:
"Kick things off with a topical wedding-themed icebreaker, as this will show everybody that you've been thinking about the speech right up to the last minute."

Make your wedding memorable with Celtic art. Celtic art incorporated into a wedding theme is ethereal and beautiful. Traditionally, Celtic weddings have a folk theme because the culture includes more rural people. Today, even the poshest wedding can feature bits and pieces of Celtic art. Irish, Scottish, Welsh, or not- integrating Celtic art wedding projects are easy to do.

1. Wedding Invitations

   • A resplendent Celtic cross at the top of a wedding invitation lets the guests know that you are having a Celtic themed wedding. This is a good way to display Celtic art as it is a printed format that can be kept as a keepsake. Many brides choose to use a Book of Kells monogram on the top or side of the invite. Sealing the envelope with a wax seal of the Trinity Knot is a great finishing touch to the invitation.

   Celtic Wedding Rings

   • Celtic art can be featured on the wedding bands. A couple can design their own or purchase a set with a standard design. Popular pieces of Celtic art for wedding bands are the Trinity Knot and the Celtic Circle. Some couples choose to use the traditional Claddagh ring for the bride's wedding band. Some Celtic wedding ring companies will recycle metal from old rings like family heirlooms to make new bands. This coincides well with the Celtic tradition of "something old, something new."

   Celtic Candles

   • Celtic candles are another form of Celtic art. Whether the art is imprinted on the candle itself or it is in the candlestick, the results shine of beauty. Decorate the altar with pillar candles in silver Claddagh taper holders. Couples can also choose to incorporate Celtic candles into the Unity candle ceremony. Celtic Unity candles have Celtic art stamped and gilded into the candles. They can also include wedding verses that come from Bible verses or poetry.

   Bride's Attire

   • A wedding gown is a perfect canvas to display Celtic art. Irish lace such as Carrickmacross would fit well on a wedding dress hem or bodice. The veil can also feature Celtic lace around the edge. A delicate lace handkerchief is nice to wrap around the bride's bouquet. After the wedding, you can frame a piece of the veil or the entire handkerchief and hang on the wall as art.
