The unity candle ceremony involves the lighting of a candle by the bride and groom to show that they are united now and forever. Usually 2 persons assist, often the mothers of the bride and groom, by holding single candles, lighting them and giving them to the bride and groom who then use the single candles to light one larger candle. I supply everything for the candle ceremony.
This is our most popular ceremony!
Unity Candle can be included as one of the 3 add-ons package.
The unity cross ceremony is a religious version of the unity ceremony and uses a special “cross” which can be purchased at craft stores, some department stores or online and is furnished by the couple or by a loved one as a wedding gift.
Like the unity candle, the unity cross portion of the ceremony can include the family: The two mothers bring both sections of the cross to the wedding officiant for them to be united.
This is a simple, visually appealing and highly customizable ritual that also leaves the newlyweds with a meaningful souvenir of the big day. Unlike the unity candle, this ceremony isn't complicated by a strong breeze. Sand ceremonies can move outdoors with no problem at all.
This is perfect for a beach wedding! Sand is available in multiple colors. Using beach sand is not recommened. Beach sand is live and requires preperation before use.
Sand Ceremony can be included as one of the 3 add-ons package.
A beautiful ceremony about a rose as the 1st gift a couple exchanges after they repeat their vows. I use beautiful long stem artificial red roses decorated for the event. If the couple requests live flowers they may supply them.
Roses can be included as one of the 3 add-ons package.
In reality, marriage is often much more than just the couple. It is the coming together of family and friends. When the bride and/or groom have children, it is appropriate for the children to be included in the wedding ceremony. With children present, the wedding ceremony also becomes the proclamation of a new family or a "family wedding."
Adding a Family Sand ceremony is another way to symbolize the joining of the bride and groom and their family together
Jumping the broom has its ancestral roots deep in the heart of Africa. It's original purpose and significance has been lost over the years because of the association with slavery.
The broom ceremony pays homage to those who came before us and paved the way. It is said that broom jumping comes from an African Tribal Marriage Ritual of placing sticks on the ground representing the couple's new home together
The broom in Asante and other Akan cultures also held spiritual value and symbolized sweeping away past wrongs or removing evil spirits.
This is where the broom comes into play regarding marriage. Brooms were waved over the heads of marrying couples to ward off spirits. The couple would often but not always jump over the broom at the end of the ceremony.
A special decorative broom is required. I supply or rent them for an additional charge or the family can bring their own.
Ceremony can be included as one of the 3 add-ons package.
Handfasting is a rural folkloric and neopagan custom, initially found in western European countries, in which a couple hold a commitment ceremony.
In the Middle Ages a betrothal was a much more serious and binding than a modern engagement. The betrothal was not the point at which the couple first decided they would get married. Rather, it was a formal ceremony where the couple exchanged promises to marry in the future and where the marriage contracts were finally agreed upon.
The officiant will place a cord over the couple's hands. It may be loosely tied symbolizing life. This identifies that the handfasting is a commitment. One year and a day after being handfasted, the couple may return to the presider and repeat their vows with the cord or cloth tightly knotted. This symbolizes the intent to have a permanent relationship. This ritual is the source of the expression "to tie the knot."
Handfasting can be included as one of the 3 add-ons package.
Our Signature Seashell Blessing is an exciting ceremony performed by the beach. Before your wedding ceremony has started, your guests are offered shells with a word. They are encouraged to convey the meaning of the word chosen to the newlywed couple. The bride and groom, and entire wedding party then toss the blessed shells into the ocean. Not only is it a special photographic moment but it is a wonderful way for everyone in attendance to be involved in this special day!
The madrina de arras (godmother of arras) holds the 13 gold coins the bridegroom presents to the bride. The coins, or arrhea, was a Roman custom of breaking gold or silver, one half to be kept by the woman and the other half by the man, as a pledge of marriage.
The custom of the giving of wedding coins originated in Spain. Thirteen gold coins (arras) are given to the bride by the bridegroom, signifying his willingness to support her. Often presented in ornate boxes or gift trays, this represents the brides dowry and holds good wishes for prosperity. These coins become a part of their family heirloom.
The number 13 represents Christ and his 12 apostles. Another popular belief is that the thirteen coins represent the 12 lunar cycles of a year, and the thirteenth coin symbolizes the couple's honeymoon.
Lasso ("lazo") or rope is placed around the bride and groom's shoulders (groom's shoulder's first) in the form of an "8" (the infinity symbol) - after they have exchanged their vows - to symbolize their everlasting union. This is usually done by the officiant, however, family members can also take part in this ritual. The couple wears the lasso throughout the remainder of the service.
This is similar to handfasting and jumping the broom.
We have several styles to choose from and they are suitable for framing. They make a perfect gift for a loved one as well.
