Depending on the Ceremony Enhancement you choose, I can handcraft it to work perfectly with your ceremonies theme. Many of these options also serve as keepsakes to commemorate your ceremony!
HANDFASTING
Have you ever wondered where the phrase “tying the knot” came from? It refers to the ancient marriage ritual of Handfasting, which is a custom found across cultures around the world. It was recognized as a binding contract of marriage between and man and woman before weddings became a legal function of the government. After the wedding vows and ring exchange, the couple’s hands are bound together with a cord, strap, or fabric that is tied in a love knot, signifying the joining of their lives in a sacred union. Today, it is a symbolic ceremony to honor a couple’s desire for never-ending commitment to each other and to acknowledge that their lives and their destinies are now bound together.
UNITY CANDLE
The Unity Candle Lighting Ceremony, like the Blending of the Sands Ceremony, represents the merging of the Bride and Groom, and of the two families, into one inseparable unit. This ritual has two parts: the first part takes place near the beginning of the ceremony, where the two special participants are asked to present the individual candles to be lighted. Then those candles stand ablaze while you and your partner listen to the beautiful and unique ceremony created for you. Following the exchanging of vows and rings, you and your partner will then complete the ritual by lighting a center candle. This is merely one way to create the perfect ending to your magical day.
