What are Handfasting Cords?

A handfasting cord (also known as a Celtic handtie, handfasting rope, ribbon or handbinding cord) is a long piece of cord, ribbon or fabric that is wrapped around the couples hands to bind them together, representing their commitment to each other. All of my Irish handfasting cords are made with careful attention to detail, and a passion to create a piece that is personal to each and every couple. If you are looking for a bespoke, unique and luxurious handfasting cord for your ceremony, you’ve come to the right place.

Customisation
