Where to buy strand or chord from for wedding?

Options
Hello all,

I was thinking of getting this for our wedding,

http://ww1.prweb.com/prfiles/2006/10/11/449889/cordlarge.jpg

All it is, is basically 3 stands in the colours of Purple, White and Gold.

But to buy it, it costs about £30 and surely I could just buy 3 stands for cheaper than that. However, I have been looking online and I have no idea what to even search for ie CHord or Stand? Haven't had any success in finding a Purple, Gold color and white strand online. If anyone knows of anywhere I would most appreciate it.

    Abakhan.co.uk - they have shops in Manchester and North Wales ,and will order literally anything in. They also have an online shop.

    Failing that, a local haberdashers, or hobbycraft.
  • You could also look in curtain shops or somewhere like Dunelm as they look like rope tie backs! If you don't mind me asking - what is it?

    "Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken."
    Ecclesiastes 4:12

    Its a 3 strand knot the bride plaits while the groom holds the gold represents god the white the bride and purple the groom, it signifies the union of all 3 during the wedding service
