The tradition of the wedding rug is an ancient one. Standing on Sacred Ground has reinvented
the custom by including designs and colors which may be significant to a contemporary bride and groom, while at the same time,
maintaining the original integrity of the tradition.
During the wedding ceremony, the couple stands upon the wedding rug as they recite their
vows and promises. After the ceremony, they take it (their Sacred Ground) with them to their new home. There, the very spot
upon which their marriage vows were exchanged, will remain or travel with them wherever life's journey leads.
Your wedding rug will become a family heirloom to be passed down through the generations.
Imagine, if you, today, were the caretaker of the wedding rug where your grandparents stood and exchanged their vows. What
a treasure that would be!
A wedding rug will become one of the most cherished gifts to either give or receive. It
is a way for the most significant people in the couple's lives to show that they support and celebrate this holy event.
While it began as a wedding rug, this beautiful floor cloth can be used wherever vows
and promises are spoken. It can be used at Baptism and again at Confirmation. It can become the "something old" at a future
wedding ceremony. It may also be used in reaffirmation of vows and committment ceremonies. If you have created a sacred space
in your home, this floor cloth would be an elegant addition to help define your space, while providing a place for kneeling
or sitting during prayer or meditation.
The price of the wedding rugs you see in the catalog are $150.00. Specialized rugs, such as the ones seen in special items start at $500.00.
As each rug is handmade to your specifications, they take a little time. Please allow two weeks
for the completion of your rug, longer if you want a custom rug. If you need your rug quicker, e-mail Bonney today as rush
orders are sometimes available. If you wish to purchase a rug, order a custom designed wedding rug, or have any questions,
please contact Bonney Brown, artist, at Standing on Sacred Ground.
