Unity Sand Ceremony

Looking for a unique way to symbolize your marriage? Consider a unity sand ceremony to represent the joining of you and your fiance. There are many advantages to a unity sand ceremony - you'll have a timeless piece to keep, plus you won't have to worry about keeping a unity candle lit (especially if you are opting for an outdoor wedding).

What you need:

Three Vases - more if you choose to include the priest or children. The center vase should be larger as this is where all participants pour their sand.

Sand - many select a different color for each participant.

How the Unity Sand Ceremony works:

Step 1: The groom begins with pouring a portion of his sand into the center vase.

Step 2: The bride will then pour a portion of her sand into the center vase, creating a layered effect.

Step 3: The bride and groom will simultaneously pour the sand into the center vase.

Variations:

Some couples choose to to repeat Steps 2 and 3 to create multiple sand layers.

Some choose to include the priest in the sand ceremony to symbolize their union with their faith. The priest follows Step 2 above.

Have children? Symbolize the joining of both families by having each child pour sand into the center vase. Children follow Step 2 above.

End result:

A beautiful vase filled with sand, symbolizing your marriage and forever a memory of your wedding day.
