This morning I was thinking back to Cearell and
Aingel's wedding and the whole "tieing the knot"
symbolism.  I thought I would do some research this
morning on the whole thing.  It was sometimes referred
to as handfasting.

When you look up "handfasting" on wikipedia there is a
reference to Lughnasadh.

If anyone else has thought about doing a Celtic style
wedding Lughnasadh IS the time to do it.  :)

Just thought I would pass that on.
