A sand ceremony provides a unique alternative to using a Unity Candle for your wedding ceremony. During the wedding ceremony, both the bride and groom will pour sand from their own vases into a larger new vase. The new vase then becomes a symbol of their joined life together. With such a large variety of sand colors to choose from its easy to match your wedding colors. A sand ceremony is also an excellent choice for including children in the wedding.
