Wonderful Celtic Rituals
The Sword, Challice, Asking & Ring Exchange
culpud sword asking
The sword and chalice is an amazing ritual from the days of Arthurian legend and the development of Grail legend. There is simply no other asking and ring exchagne ceremony like it in Australia.

It involves the groom bending his knee and presenting to his betrothed his sword with her ring upon it.

The bride then responds by offering her chalice to her groom, the chalice empty except for his ring.
