Picture the moment as the bride makes her long-awaited entrance and begins her walk down the aisle, accompanied by her bridesmaids and ring-bearer. Traditionally the ring bearer is a little boy of about three to six years old, but many little flower girls now carry the ring cushion. Also called ring pillows, the tradition of carrying a ring on a ring cushion or pillow is thought to date back to Ancient Egypt, when bridal gifts of fine jewels were laid out on valuable pillows during a wedding. When the custom of the giving of wedding rings became popular in Europe, the practice of asking a pageboy to carry the rings on a pretty ring cushion took hold. The wedding rings symbolise the enduring commitment and love between the bridal couple and a bridal ring cushion is the perfect way to display and protect the precious rings. We have assembled a gorgeous collection of wedding ring cushion, in shades of white and ivory satin, with sashes, flowers, beads and crystals in tones to match your wedding theme. For a special touch you can have them personalised with the couple’s names and wedding date finely hand-embroidered in co-ordinating thread. Our beautiful wedding ring cushions not only add a touch of glamour to the wedding day, but will be a lasting keepsake of the special day. |
