As part of their marriage ceremony, they included a hand tying ritual, where their hands were tied together with a ribbon that is knotted. This is an ancient ceremony that is not seen much anymore, and is actually where the phrase "tying the knot" comes from.
On a side note, Stacy met us at the wedding of one of her maids of honor, Cressida, a former bride of ours. Stacy was the one of the brides maids at Cressida's wedding, which took place before she had met Shaun. Stacy's mom loves this picture because in it, she looks a bit dreamy, as if she's thinking that one day she would be the bride as well. It was great to see and talk to Cressida and Jeff again, along with her parents.
