There are so many ways you can add something a little different into your ceremony:
Bottle of Wine
Wine has been a symbol of life and prosperity for centuries. One ceremony tradition that involves wine is to have two small carafes of wine, one white and one red! After exchanging rings, the couples put the wines into a third carafe, creating a special blend! They each take a sip of the mixed wine to represent their individual lives become one!
Unity Sand Ceremony
Each partner has a container of sand of different colours. You pour them together into a vase to symbolise your two loves and personalities fusing together!
Ring Warming
Your rings are handed between all of your guests and they can speak or silently send their wishes for your future over the rings so when it comes to exchange them, they're imbued with the love and affection of all your family and friends!
Jumping the Broom!!
You decorate a broom and lay it on the floor and jump over it!! This represents sweeping away the old and welcoming in the new!
Handfastening
Originally a pagan ritual, now the couple cross their hands and the celebrant, guests or family members tie coloured ribbons around their hands!
