Ideas for the Ceremony
 

The Unity Candles

The Unity Candle Ceremony consists of the lighting of one candle from two separate candles held by the bride and groom. This ceremony symbolizes the union of two lives into one. Creative variations can be added to the ceremony, such as the mothers of the bride and groom, or any designated member of the wedding party, lighting the candles after they walk down the isle or during the ceremony. The couple may keep the candle (some re-light the candle each year on their anniversary).

The Rings

The wedding ring is an outward symbol of an inward change .It represents the bond created through and by the love of the couple. The wedding ring tradition has existed for centuries and demonstrates a visible evidence of the institution of marriage. Much can be added in this portion of the ceremony usually involves the verbal participation of the Bride and Groom during the exchange. 
 

Breaking of the Glass

Breaking the glass at the conclusion of the ceremony is generally reserved for the Jewish ceremony. However many couples celebrating an interfaith ceremony request it. The breaking of the glass reminds us of the frailty of a relationships and how careful one should be not to break it. It also demonstrated an irrevocable bond or covenant that is created via the institution of marriage. Symbolically as the glass is shattered we transfer that frailty to the glass and prevent it from entering the marriage.
