This custom, personalized braid in the form of a cross, framed unity wedding sign, (which is also know as God's knot, 'Eccl 4 12', 'Mark 10 9', or 'A cord of three strands', 'What God joined together') is the perfect non traditional alternative for your unity ceremony in placement of the unity candle, unity sand ceremony. It is a fitting piece to have at your vow renewal ceremony or anniversary! It is also the perfect personalized Wedding gift, Bridal Shower gift, Anniversary gift, Couples gift, Valentines Day or Christmas gift!
It symbolizes the bonding of Man, Wife and God to be united in a strong unbreakable commitment.
As Mark 10:9 says "Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate." and the second part of Ecclesiastes 4:12 states "A cord of three strands is not easily broken." There is no better way to symbolize God's most sacred covenant.
The message of this piece is that God remains at the center of your marriage with the Bride being represented by the left cord and the groom by the right. As the cords are braided together you are symbolically uniting all three into one as God describes in Mark 10 "and the two shall become one".
The best part is, you will always be reminded of the covenant as it hangs on your wall as décor or sits on your mantle as a reminder that all three of you are in this together.
