The Sand Ceremony – A Beautiful Ritual For Your Wedding

Executive summary about sand ceremony by Kathleen Ball

My niece introduced me to the Sand Ceremony. Briefly, here is the idea behind and the components needed for a Sand Ceremony.

1. The Sand Ceremony: Like the Unity Candle Ceremony, the Sand Ceremony symbolizes two individuals becoming one. In one way, you have two smaller vases containing sand and one empty, larger container. The two individual containers represent the bride and groom and their individual families, friends, and lives. The empty larger container represents marriage. During the ceremony, the bride and groom pour their individual vases of sand together into the larger container symbolizing that their individual lives are now forever intertwined.

2. Vases and Sand: You can be quite creative with your vases and sand. The sand can be plain sand that you purchase at a hobby store or it can be colored sand or it can be sand that you collect from places that are meaningful to you. So if you are looking for an alternative to candles, consider the Sand Ceremony. And my niece, she and her fiancee choose a family heirloom clear glass vase and sand from their favorite beaches for their ceremony.

Unity Sand Ceremony – A Hot, New Wedding Trend

Executive summary about sand ceremony by Sharon Vaz

Rather than the time-honored ritual of the Unity Candle Ceremony, the famous couple chose the alternative, Unity Sand Ceremony. A staple in marriages everywhere, The Unity Candle Ceremony has long been a tradition for marriages both elaborate and simple. Parents or other members of the wedding party often join in the candle lighting ceremony.

The Unity Sand Ceremony can also be altered in many ways to include family and friends. Besides the bride and groom, various colors of sand are given to wedding members who will add their sand to the couple’s sand, all flowing into the container, creating a colorful and one-of-a kind symbol of unity.

In an age where couples are planning weddings that are unique to their beliefs and lifestyle, the sand ceremony can be personalized many different ways to fit the occasion. After the ceremony, the couple has a unique keepsake to remember their wedding day.

Sand is available online, or the couple can use sand from a destination they’ve visited or that has a special meaning in their lives. Many couples write their own vows for the ceremony, but passages from ancient Hawaiian or Native American weddings can easily be found on the Internet for the portion of your wedding relating to the Unity Sand Ceremony.

Whatever your dream wedding entails, consider incorporating the Unity Sand Ceremony into the celebration.
