First off I am still learning I try not to post question in fear of looking stupid or embarrassing Myself. Have You ever done or been part of a collaring ceremony? Or is that only a internet chat room thing?

I have been part of and witnessed a few collaring ceremonies.

Never been a part of anyone else's but I've heard stories and they sound positively adorable and sweet.

As much as I'd have loved to collar my boy in an official ceremony, I've been afflicted with a broken laugh-switch. When things get too serious or quiet I start laughing uncontrollably. This is also why I'm no longer invited to christenings, weddings, or funerals.

Have been to several in real life. At one stage I collared a sub (now ex-hub, didn't work out in either way!). By Our choice, We had a ceremony with about 10 bdsm and open-minded vanilla people present. We wrote Our own words about what it meant to Us and Our own vows and commitments. For practical reasons We chose to have matching gold and opal anklets made to signify Our bond.

My sub side is also collared to Master, coming up to 2 years on June 9th, though that will also mark 4 years living together 24/7. So there was no rushing into it! He and i chose to be alone down by the river, where each expressed what this meant and He put my collar on. In this case, the collar is a silver identity styled bracelet with the name plate being silver latticework with a gold v[A] in the centre. We designed it together to match in with commitment rings given about 6 months into living together, and had it made by a jeweller (same one who did the anklets!).

Other subs/slaves I have seen collared in real life wear a variety of identifying items, including:
* various pieces of innocuous-looking jewellery,
* simple leather collars,
* leather collar studded with their slave name or with a pendant with their name on,
* dog tags on a chain,
* metal collars that are locked with keys,
* other collars that are welded on (caution - major pain if you have to go to hospital in a hurry!), and
* one had a special belt buckle with his Mistress's name.

In other words, the collar can be what the people involved decide is practical and symbolic for them. And the dynamic of the relationship is similarly individually defined, though most would see giving and receiving of a collar as a significant step not to taken lightly.

I have seen collaring ceremonies. I collared my girl in private as part of our personal ceremony. These things happen. For some, it's like "going steady". For others, it's like a wedding. It depends on the people involved.

Was at my own collaring ceremony, ours being a more intimate, quiet affair with my sister sub present, with a good meal and some play thrown in!

There are some who have ceremonies that rival wedding ceremonies, and others who have small gatherings, or even just an intimate dinner for 2, there are no rules, but yes, they are more than a chatroom thing!

Hello a collaring cermony can be any place you want it to be say at a park on beautiful sunny day, or in a special place just you and your Master, or your closest friends who know you are in the lifestyle of course. It can even be a romantic evening at home by candle light whatever you and your Master prefer. It's not about who does what when and where, it's about what works for you as a couple. Hope this gives you ideas oh and also it doesn't have to be online to me and my honest opinion that is just down right tacky, this is a big decision for a both you should make it is as extravegent as you want as long as you can afford it, like share a bottle of Dom Perigon together which is champagne

. Good luck.

My collaring was surprise, we had talked of me being collared to Her but no more than that.
It happened in a restaurant, I was sitting opposite my Mistress after dinner and She told me to close my eyes, I felt Her lean across the table and then the cool metal going around my neck, the click of the lock and a gentle kiss on my lips.
Tears of joy were streaming down my cheeks as She passed me a mirror to look at the silver collar that I have so happily worn since.
