Unity Sand Ceremony and Lighting of the Unity Candle

Did you know that lighting of the unity candle has only been popular the last 30 to 40 years?  

Although the unity sand ceremony is a relatively new trend, the first unity sand ceremony was performed thousand of years ago by Native Americans (this is still up for debate - others argue that native Hawaiians were the first).

While the origin and popularity of Unity Ceremonies are very different, they both are used to symbolize two lives coming together.  A Unity Ceremony is also an easy and effective way to enhance your wedding while creating a presentation for your family and friends to mark the start of your happily ever after.
