You could get
down on one knee during a romantic dinner, you could dazzle her
with the engagement ring after a horseback ride on the beach,
or you could project it on the JumboTron at a packed sporting
event. The goal is the same - Irish wedding vows.
Every couple's
proposal takes its own unique course and will be a story that
you will be telling at parties and gatherings for years to
come. Make yours a night to remember by giving it a distinct
Celtic flare, whether you are planning on sporting Irish
wedding rings or not. Romantic touches may well lead to Irish
wedding vows.
45 million
Americans are of Irish descent and out of those 275,000 marry
each year.
Year after
year, Irish Americans are becoming more fervent about
acknowledging their culture, as their longing for a
preservation of the old and forgotten grows stronger. And for
those fortunate enough to be raised and living in Ireland, you
may want to honor the traditions that still stand strong around
you. There are so many small yet poignant details you can
incorporate into your wedding proposal and Irish wedding vows
to adhere to these time honored traditions.
Whether you
propose on a picnic or on a cozy weekend getaway, serving
Bunratty Meade with your meal will bring you back to days where
maidens in castles were courted by knights on
horseback.
Meade is a
honey wine that is based on a recipe from the oldest drink in
Ireland, and its can be drunk from goblets raised in
celebration for even more Celtic flavor.
Horseshoes are
considered a symbol of luck in Irish culture, so if you're in
any doubt about what her answer might be, you may want to sneak
one of these into your pocket.
Another option
would be buying her an item of Celtic jewelry, a horseshoe
necklace that will perfectly match the Celtic ring you've got
stowed away inside your jacket pocket. Remember you aim is to
eventually share precious Irish wedding vows.
The chime of
bells is thought to keep evil spirits away and restore harmony
if there is any upset between the couple.
A sweet touch
to your proposal could be to have a friend or family member
hidden nearby, ringing the bells gently as you profess your
love and ask for her hand.

Wildflowers
can be factored into traditional Irish wedding ceremonies, and
although you haven't made it to that step quite yet, you could
present her with a bouquet of wildflowers after she (luck
willing!) says yes. Then soon you can enjoy those Irish wedding
vows.
Although you
may not be ready to state the whimsical Irish wedding vows that
speak to being buried with his people and having her washing
hang next to his, there are other Celtic sayings that would
work perfectly when asking someone to spend the rest of their
life with you:
By the power
that Christ brought from heaven, mayst thou love me.
As the sun
follows its course, mayst thou follow me.
As light to
the eye, as bread to the hungry, as joy to the
heart,
may thy presence be with me, oh
one that I love, 'til death comes to part us
asunder.
As the saying
goes, a bride should wear "something old, something new,
something borrowed and something blue" as she walks down the
aisle. Her hopes and anticipations of those Irish wedding vows
grow stronger each step of the way.
You can help
get this sweet tradition off on the right foot even before the
wedding planning begins. Maybe a family member has an old piece
of Celtic jewelry that has been passed down through the years
that the blushing bride could wear on her wedding
day.
This could be
borrowed from the bride's mother as you sit down to ask
permission for her hand, and when the time comes to propose
marriage, she'll know that you took the time to ask the people
that matter most.
