My future Mother-in-law owns a Floral shop and I often make Welcome signs for the lobby of the reception with the bride & grooms name for her. This time the Bride suggested using an Irish wedding symbol on the sign being they are Irish and the wedding is on St. Patrick's Day. I have no idea what she is talking about or what it even looks like. Does anyone know what this symbol is and where I can find one?

It's a rolling pin crossed with a shot galss over a potato.............OR...............It's a Cladagh. Two hands circling a heart and a Crown on top. I think.

Among my relatives, the symbol for a wedding has been a shotgun, in combination with a dead rabbit. If the truth be known, it would also have been the appropriate symbol for some others as well.
