Our Little Pagan Solstice Barefoot Hippie Wedding :)

[baldandold]

can i hear "canon in d" at the start?

[JoAnneMB1]

Awwww. The sweetest wedding ever!



[HeySusie1]

omg! Beautiful :)

[BlessedShakti]

Tashwaaaa...The Goddess is in our hearts. Paganism encompasses many "organized religions". We hold many of those near and dear to us. This wedding was our spiritual union, a blend of many traditions and religions...and was the most perfect ceremony for US. Maybe not what you would do, but that's you...not us. That prayer from St. Francis of Assisi encompasses what we strive for in our marriage and I know God/Goddess held him in great esteem.

[tashwaaaa]

whaaaat. how is that prayer pagan at all? why was there no mention of the goddess?? 'reborn to life eternal'?? come on.

[BlessedShakti]

To clear up the whole "barefoot" debate.. :) Looney, I do agree with you, I've always loved being barefoot, makes me feel closer to the "source". It wasnt required everyone go barefoot, wanted our bridal party to be comfortable...no "rules" (we did want everyone in white). I am happiest barefoot...so thats the way I chose to spend the day. (especially fun while dancing to jazz/blues/funk in the grass ;) If others wanted shoes, they were worn. Wouldnt have wanted it any other way! *BLESSED BE*

[Zippos84]

this made me tear up! i hope my wedding is just as beautiful as this one.

Why is everyone barefoot?

[Looney4Luna]

@IITallikaII why not be barefoot? :)

[IITallikaII]

@Looney4Luna But whats the logic, is it supposed to mean something? Or is it for shits and giggles.

[Looney4Luna]

@IITallikaII haha classy xD! umm, well not wearing shoes for me makes me feel more grounded, as though my feet are growing roots that connect me better with the earth (i dont realli get tht feeling with shoes/ sandals on)

i remember once reading somewhere tht magick works best w/o shoes, something about the magical energy having more ways to flow into you, like from ur toe nails or something i guess. :P at my reiki circle we sweep all the left over negative energy toward the persons feet, so

[IITallikaII]

@Looney4Luna Magic? You believe in magic?

[Looney4Luna]

@IITallikaII why yes, yes i do. ^.^ but perhaps i shouldnt get into it, i like to keep opinions i have on those certain subjects to myself, not because they're really personal or anything, but bc im usually terrible at explaining myself, and i dont want to sound, idk, stupid. :P lol

[IITallikaII]

No. Please I am truly interested in your beliefs.

[Looney4Luna]

@IITallikaII maybe its to get rid of any negativity that might be inside u on that joyful day.

or maybe they were barefoot just to be barefoot. :p lol, idk, i wasnt there. ^.^ wish i was tho, it looks lovely. :)

[belliniable]

I don't understand. Why is everyone laughing?

[BlessedShakti]

@belliniable Because there was so much joy that day. The only way to express it was through tears and laughter ;)

[belliniable]

@BlessedShakti :-)

[cindy10989]

[eddiesanford07]

Oh my god, you're necklace is so pretty!

[aZbroful]

Im thinking of having a hippie wedding, I was wondering what songs you played at yours?

[BlessedShakti]

@aZbroful

we had a blues band play and it was SO much fun. Also, our friend played acoustic guitar as we walked down the aisle. I would recommend getting a funky blues-y kind of band as well because it's so much fun and it was great music that all ages could groove to :)

[aZbroful]

cool. Thanks :D
