Hand Joining in the Orthodox Wedding

The Orthodox wedding sacrament is divided into the betrothal ceremony - the first part when the rings are exchanged - and the wedding ceremony which commences immediately after.  When the priest finishes the beginning prayers of the wedding service in which he asks God to grant the spouses a long and peaceful life, he joins the hands of the bride and groom for the duration the ceremony.  As tradition during the Serbian Orthodox wedding, the right hands of the bride and groom are joined together with the wedding peskir.  The priest completes the prayer which asks God "...to unite them in one mind and one flesh." 

Here at Dahlia we want to continue the beautiful tradition of using the wedding hand ties of the Serbian wedding.  All of our pieces are hand made and custom designed.  We hope that you find a design that is fitting for your special day!
