UNITY SAND & MIXING JAR Now Available.
• The sand ceremony is an alternative to the unity candle ceremony frequently performed in weddings. It's perfect for outdoor weddings (especially beach weddings) and blended families. A sand ceremony gives the couple a chance to recite their own unique vows while taking a few moments to symbolize their union.
HOW TO USE SAND IN YOUR CEREMONY
• The bride, groom, and any other family members the bride and groom wish to include each have their own color of sand. In the center of the table is a glass vase the bride and groom chose beforehand. It can be any size or shape. The only requirements are that it's big enough to hold layered sand from all of those involved, it's clear, and hopefully it is something they'll want to display in their home.
1. Each participant is assigned a color of sand and a small shovel with which to place it into the vase when it's their turn.
2. The colors of sand can match the new couple's home décor or their wedding colors.
3. While pouring the sand, the bride and groom recite their vows.
4. When the ceremony is over, the freshly filled vase is kept in a safe place while everyone enjoys the wedding reception.
5. The bride and groom take the vase home and put it on display.
BENEFITS TO USING SAND
The benefits of using sand in your wedding ceremony rather than the more traditional unity candle:
1. Perfect for outdoor weddings where flames aren't safe.
2. Complement beach themes perfectly.
3. Can include more than just the bride, groom, and perhaps the mothers of the bride and groom; children and other family members can get involved.
4. More modern than the unity candle ceremony.
