The Unity Sand Ritual may be one of the most popular wedding rituals. Typically both partners pour a small container of sand (often two different colours) into a larger vessel, forming a layered effect. This act symbolizes their life-long commitment and the joining of their two lives. Unity Sand Ritual is a good choice if you would like a keepsake to display in your home after your wedding day. It is also perfect for an outdoor wedding since wind is less of a concern than it is with a candle.
