Sign the Wedding Register with a Feather Quill Pen

The wedding day is one of the most important days in a man or woman’s life. The experience is remembered for a lifetime, and commemorated with whole host of photographs and videos. Everything is planned meticulously, so don’t forget about the pen that the bride and groom use to sign the marriage certificate.

This is a detail that is often overseen, but is a vital part of the wedding ceremony. A special pen that suits the occasion will enhance your memory of the occasion. I think that an ordinary pen looks totally out of place at a wedding, as everything that surrounds it looks so special. In my opinion a feather quill pen totally suits the occasion, particularly if one can be found in white. A feather pen is usually made from a goose feather, and has a metal dib nib at the end. The feather quill pen not only looks beautiful and special, but also is historical.

The sanctity of marriage has been around for centuries, and the occasion has a real sense of history about it. The religious temple is usually the setting for a wedding, and again are historical buildings full of tradition. The feather quill pen fits in superbly with this setting, as it has been used in Europe since 700AD. It was used to write some of the dead see scrolls, as well as sign the constitution of the United States of America.

The feather quill dip pen needs to be dipped in ink before writing. This ritual enhances the memory and meaning associated with signing the marriage documents. So don’t forget about the detail of the pen at your wedding, use something special that suits the occasion like a feather quill.
