The Unity Sand Ceremony is a novel alternative for the popular "unity candle ceremony" incorporated into many of today's weddings. The essence is to symbolise the union of "two into one". This sand version is not only beautiful and interesting, but also more appropriate for an outdoor setting.
With the addition of these coordinating Miniature Nesting Vases and contrasting colours of sand, now children or other relatives can be invited to take part. The mixing of the various sand colours is a fitting way to symbolise the new Blended Family that will result from this union. Although there are no set guidelines fro this ceremony, if children are included, generally the sand is poured into the central vase in the following order: 1.Father 2.Mother 3.Children 4.Father and Mother together. Readings and sentiments can be customised as desired.
Coloured sand sold separately. Approximately one jar of sand fills one standard vase (from the larger $99 Vase Set)
You can choose to personalise your vases by having a small amount of text etched onto each one (see options above). If you choose to have the vases personalised, please allow up to 4 weeks before your wedding as this is the current turnaround time on this service.
