Sand Ceremony

________ and ______ may your love always be as constant as the never-ending
waves, flowing endlessly from the depths of the sea. Just as there will
never be a morning without the ocean’s flow, there will never
be a day without your love for each other. You have just sealed your
relationship by the giving and receiving of rings. This beautiful union
is symbolized through the combining of these two individual shells of
sand. The first shell represents you ______, and all that you were,
all that you are, and all that you will ever be, and the other represents
you ______, and all that you were, all that you are and all that you
will ever be. Each one holds its own unique beauty, strength, and character.
They can stand on their own and be whole, without need of anything else.
However when these two are blended together they create an entirely
new and extraordinarily more intricate entity. Each grain of sand brings
to the mixture a lasting beauty that forever enriches the combination.
Please pour the sand into this common container to symbolize the union
of your two lives. Just as these grains of sand can never be separated
and poured again into the individual containers, so will your marriage
be a molding of two individual personalities, bonded together forming
one heart, one love. The life that each of you experienced now, individually,
will hereafter be inseparably united, for the two shall become one.
