A sand ceremony is a symbolic ritual that is sometimes included in wedding ceremonies. It involves pouring colored sand into a container to symbolize the coming together of the bride and groom and their families.
The sand ceremony typically involves two vases, each filled with a different color of sand, representing the bride and groom.
During the ceremony, the bride and groom each take turns pouring their sand into a central vase, which symbolizes the union of their two lives.
Sometimes, family members or friends are also invited to participate, each adding their own layer of sand to the central vase.
The resulting layered sand represents the new family unit that has been formed through the marriage.
The sand ceremony is often used as a visual representation of the couple’s commitment to each other, and the unity that they are creating through their marriage.
