Sample Wedding Unity Ceremony Wording
Here are some sample wedding unity ceremony wordings that you can customize to fit your personalities and values:
Sand Ceremony
“Today, we join our lives and our families together as one. This sand represents our individual lives, unique and separate. As we pour the sand together, it symbolizes the blending of our lives and our families into one. We promise to support each other, to be patient and kind, and to always remember the love that brought us together.”
Candle Lighting
“As we light this candle, we symbolize the merging of our two lives into one. The flame represents the love and passion that we share, and the light represents the guidance and support that we promise to provide for each other throughout our journey together.”
Tree Planting
“As we plant this tree together, we symbolize the growth and strength of our love. Just as this tree requires care and attention to thrive, so does our relationship. We promise to nurture and support each other through all of life’s challenges and to always remember the roots that brought us together.”
Unity Glass
“Today, [bride’s name] and [groom’s name] will be performing a unity glass ceremony to symbolize the joining of their lives together. The glass represents their individual lives, unique and separate. As they pour their glass beads together, it symbolizes the blending of their lives into one.
Like the glass beads, their individual lives are no longer distinguishable from each other. The colored pieces of glass represent the bride and groom’s individual personalities, strengths, and weaknesses. They join together to form a beautiful work of art, symbolizing their marriage.
This work of art is a reminder of their love, commitment, and the promises they make today. The glass, like their love, is fragile and must be handled with care. The cracks and imperfections represent the challenges they will face as a couple. As they come together to form a beautiful piece of art, so will they overcome challenges and create a beautiful life together.
May this unity glass serve as a reminder of the promises they make today and the love they share.”
