Summary of Irish Love and Wedding Customs

"May you have many children and may they grow as mature in taste, healthy in color and as sought after as the contents of this glass." -Irish wedding toast

A little gem of a book uncovering the customs associated with love and traditional marriage in Ireland. All you need to know about Irish romantic tradition is here - harvest knots and strawboys, claddagh rings and unusual marriage proposals, Irish blessings, Irish prayers, spells and superstitions.

One of the best ways to explore history is through the heart, and Kim McGuire's Irish Love and Wedding Customs is the perfect place to start.

Did you know?

The bones of St. Valentine are preserved in Whitefriar Street Church in Dublin? The magic kisses of Aengus Og, the Celtic Cupid, became tiny birds and whoever heard their sweet singing would suddenly be overcome with passionate notions!?

Beautifully illustrated by Sarah Cunningham, Irish Love and Wedding Customs is essential for romantics everywhere.
