To make it truly memorable, more and more couples are opting for the traditional Irish Celtic wedding bands, which is seeped in the historical legends of love and fidelity. The circular shape of the Irish Celtic Wedding Band reflects the continuity of life and love. And the knotwork pattern symbolizes the eternal and undying love between the couple, accentuating the continuity of love in our lives. Some people believe that the crossing of the strands reflects the interlinking of our lives, as though each life is connected to another through an invisible strand.
Also called the “lover’s knot” and the “eternity knot”, the Celtic wedding band brings to life the glory of eternal love and life.
Another symbol which is replicated on the Irish Celtic Wedding bands is that of a Celtic cross which symbolizes greater understanding and mutual love between the couple.
Also popular is the Claddagh wedding ring, an extension of the Celtic wedding band, which is a ring showing a heart nestled between two intertwining hands with a crown on top, which emphasizes the popular Irish phrase “with these hands I give you my heart and I crown it with my love.” These bands have become very popular as it is believed that it was worn first by King Edward V1 and Queen Victoria to mark the beginning of their married life.
