Two lives blending together into one!

If you are wanting to incorporate something unique and symbolic into your wedding ceremony, maybe you should consider a Sand Ceremony!

It is known as a type of unity ceremony, and expresses the coming together of two people or two families, who are joining together to become one new family. It is a simple idea, but can be quite powerful when done right. Typically, each person has a different coloured sand ( ideally from their home town or a significant lake/beach location) and they take turns at pouring it into one clear vessel, which forms a layered effect. It varies who does the pouring; often it's just the bride and groom, but you can also choose to incorporate parents and family members - its entirely over to you!

And apart from being a neat thing to include in your ceremony; one of the best things (I think anyway), is that you are then left with a beautiful keepsake to display somewhere pretty, to look at often to remind you of your wedding day.
