Unity Candle Ceremony
The text of this unity candle ceremony
mentions the meaning of the unity candle and taper candles, as well as the significance of
the entwined cross and rings.
Today, [Name] and [Name] make a loving
commitment to follow the greatest Commandment of all: "Love one another, as I have
loved you." They do this in hopes that their union will become a symbol of God's
promise to merge two lives into one.
The two distinct flames represent your
lives to this moment; individual and unique. As you light the center candle together, the
entwined rings symbolize your two lives joined in dependence and growing maturity. Your
plans will be mutual, your joys and sorrows will be shared alike. The cross is a reminder
of your faith in the Lord who who enriches your marriage in every way.
Extinguish the two, and you are forever
united in God's love.
This ceremony is particularly appropriate
when used with the Classic Unity Candle printed with a cross and rings design along with
the couple's names and date. Available from
our store
