How It
Works
The couple
will have a wedding sand ceremony set which consists of one
main vase which can be sealed and two or three smaller vases.
Each person has their own color of sand, for example, the groom
might choose black while the bride uses white sand.
At a chosen
point during or after the vows, the couple pours their sand
into the main vase, creating a lasting memento of their unity.
The sand that has been poured into the vase can never be
separated again, the colors will be forever joined into one art
piece, much like the marriage has joined the happy
couple.
Variations on
the Wedding Sand Ceremony
Of course, you
don't have to just use two people. In cases where two families
are coming together, one or more of the people tying the knot
has children, the children can be included. They may be given
their own colors of sand in smaller vases to pour into the main
container.
Other
variations include the minister pouring a separate color as a
base or
to seal the
vase off, the mothers of the bride and groom adding their own
colors as a blessing or the addition of sand from the locale
where the couple is being married. This last one works
particularly well when you are having a beach wedding as you
can include sand from the very place that you are getting
married.
The Pouring
Patterns
There are
several ways to create your wedding sand ceremony art. Laying a
foundation is a good idea, so the minister may pour in an inch
or so of sand. The couple can then choose the method they wish
to add their own sand.

Layers:
Probably the most popular way to go is with layers. Each person
takes turns pouring to create a striated look. This is
particularly good if more than two people are pouring. The
bride and groom may wish to pour their layers, then have any
children pour theirs and top it off with another bride and
groom layer to symbolize the protection they are giving the
children.

Zigzag: In
order for this to work, you will need to pour on top of each
other. One person starts and the other pours their sand at the
base of the other's. You will need to move your sand back and
forth to create effective zigzags . . . you might want to
practice this.
Whathaveyou:
This method requires very little thought. Just pour at the same
time and see how the pattern comes out! You may wish to do a
couple of layers, then a composite and top it off with a
different color.
Wedding sand
ceremonies are a precious thing. They also allow you to perform
a unity ceremony at a beach wedding, something that usually
doesn't work with candles because of the wind outside. And,
when it is all finished, you will have a beautiful art piece to
set on your mantle.
