Handfasting at the Summer Solstice on 20 June 2015 at Beeskow Castle
On 20 June 2015 Anika and Michael got married according to old way and custom. Eheleite.com had the great honor of being allowed to arrange the pagan ceremony and the flame ceremony in the evening for the bridal couple from Berlin. Beeskow Castle is located on a small Spree Island, not far from the outskirts of Berlin. At 13 o’clock already (when all the rain clouds had disappeared) the medieval pagan marriage ceremony began. As Anika and Michael stepped in front of our altar and everyone present rose up, the first pulled out their handkerchiefs from sheer emotions.
