Waiyne Brandon and Robert Smith tied the knot after 12 years together, with a HandFasting ceremony at the The Old Rec Cafe on Hove Recreational Ground.
ON August 11, Waiyne and Robert were joined by family and friends at Hove Recreation Ground for a traditional Handfasting ceremony.
Handfasting is a rural folkloric and neopagan custom, initially practised in western European countries. During the ceremony a couples hands are bound together by a celebrant to symbolise their connection and devotion to one another and a broom is waved over their heads to ward off spirits. Following the ceremony the couple and their guests would Jump the Broom to symbolise their commitment and willingness to look after each other in their new life together.
