The Meaning of the Unity Sand Ceremony

The Unity Sand Ceremony, a celebration that is usually two to three minutes in length, is a meaningful symbolic joining of two lives. In this timeless ritual of marriage, the couple ceremoniously pours various colors of sand from separate containers into one special container, the unity vase, symbolizing their coming together as one. It provides a way for couples during their wedding ceremony to brilliantly show the joining of the flow of their two lives into a single stream with their individually colored sands joining as one in the Unity Vase.Plus, because it can be displayed privately or for all to see for years to come, the symbol of the couple’s love is always present, always a reminder, and always a touchstone of truth. As such, the Unity Sand Ceremony and the unity vase can be treasured forever.

The flowing sand and blending of the colors in the Unity Sand Ceremony symbolize the bringing together of two lives into one. The two sands symbolize everything that the bride and groom have been or will become in the future.The blending of the sand represents the union not only of them but their friends and families as well. The separate sands once poured into the unity vase can never be put back into their separate vases. They are forever entwined just as the lives and loves of the bride and groom.Some couples prefer to leave a small amount of sand in their respective container to show that even though they now function as one, they remain individuals.

Sand, Seashell or Rock Ceremony- Beach Wedding

Photography by Otto Haring Photography- Wedding by Infinity Weddings & Events, LLC

The "Rock Ceremony, Sand Ceremony or Seashell ceremony" is a beautiful "unity" ceremony that includes everyone who attends the couple's wedding.  

Although small, polished stones are usually used, the couple may choose to use any other token they desire... seashells, glass or crystal, flowers, etc. As you will see below, the guests make a wish for the couple's happiness and then the tokens are collected into a single container... each rock representing a wish and an individual present at the couple's wedding. Some couples even have small markers for each guest so they may write their name or their wish, like LOVE, HOPE, STRENGTH, etc., on the rock or the seashell. Then, the couple can save the tokens in a nice container (like the one pictured above) as a keep-sake. Also, some couples combine the elements of other unity ceremonies (such as the "Sand Ceremony") and pour sand or water over the collected tokens. The many variations of this ceremony are only limited by the couple's imagination.

As with all my wedding ceremonies, the final wording of any ceremony, or part of a ceremony, may vary from the samples shown on this website...based on consultation and feed-back from the couple.

More and more couples are opting to have special touches in their wedding ceremony. They range from candle lighting to the rock ceremony. In this article we discuss the seashell/ rock ceremony.



ROCK CEREMONY or SEASHELL CEREMONY

Each guest has been given a small polished stone upon arriving.

Before you met, your lives were on different paths with different destinations. But love has brought you together and joined these separate paths into one. Each one of your friends and family here today have been given a small polished stone that represents their unique individuality and their presence at your wedding today. You also each have a stone of your own that symbolizes your previous separate lives, separate sets of friends, separate families and the different life's journeys you once traveled.

I will now ask that everyone please take out the stone you have been
given and pause to make a wish or blessing for happiness and
good will for the couple for the future of their marriage.

Everyone pauses to make their wish. (or only family can come up and give you their wish, hug and kiss and then drop the stone or seashell in the keepsake container.)

Now, we will collect the stones and the couple will then
add their individual stones to the container as well.

Of course this can be changed to suit your desires and again, we are only limited by your imagination!
