4 Beautiful Unity Ceremonies For Your Natural Wedding

4 Beautiful Unity Ceremonies For Your Natural Wedding 5

Many couples choose to include a section of their ceremony that celebrates the concept of unity. This signifies the union of two souls into one unit. You can do this by merging two flames into one, combining water, or even blending two separate sources of sand or salt into one. Couples can do something totally outside of the box and mix two types of beer to make a black and tan, or put together the perfect ingredients for a unity sandwich! For a nature centered wedding, think about incorporating natural elements. Here are some beautiful ideas:

1 . Grow Together
