Unity Candle and Sand Ceremony

Unity Candle and Sand Ceremony book cover
The Unity Candle, and its outdoor equivalent, the Unity Sand Ceremony (also referred to as the Blending of the Sands) are popular wedding ceremony rituals that have almost become standard in both traditional and more casual wedding ceremonies.

Until now, however, there has been no comprehensive guide available. This easy-to-read book not only takes a fresh look at both the Unity Candle and Sand Ceremony rituals, guiding the reader through the process of developing a unique and personal version of each ceremony, it covers all the practical aspects of the rituals.


Using the tools and examples provided you will be able to create a personal Unity Candle or Sand Ceremony ritual that brings together all three of the critical elements required to create a truly amazing wedding or commitment ceremony: words that convey layers of meaning and the depth of the couple's  love for each other, music to stir the emotions; and the visual element, what the guests see unfolding before them, to express feelings that go beyond words.

The book will guide you through all the practical aspects of including the lighting of a Unity Candle or a Unity Sand Ceremony as part of your wedding or commitment and inspire you with a wide range of examples of Unity Candle wording and Sand Ceremony wording for individual and family versions of each ritual.
