In this intimate ceremony, the couple had decided they didn’t want to say their personal vows out loud in public. Rather, they wanted to look each other in the eyes and think them. As their celebrant, I suggested combining this important moment with another ritual - a ring warming. The couple stood in the middle of a circle made up of their closest friends and families holding a white cord around them. The wedding rings were passed along the cord from person to person; each time they were held for a moment and “warmed” with thoughts and blessings for the couple. Accompanied by soft music it really gave us all the shivers. There’s a short video of this here:
