WEDDING TRADITIONS
The Irish Marriage Bell

A Celtic tradition has it that every couple should receive a bell as a wedding gift. The bell is placed in a prominent location in the newlyweds' home. When a disagreement takes place, one of the couple rings the bell to end the discord and declare a truce without an admission of fault.

This old Irish tradition of giving what is also known as the "Trouble Bell" or "Make Up Bell" was established so as to prevent disharmony to linger for more than its due.

We absolutely love this tradition and think it is one that could be a universally well received and often practiced custom far beyond just the bonny green shores of Ireland!
