If you're getting married at the beach or another outdoor setting, a sand ceremony is a wonderful alternative to a unity candle which is often difficult to light in breezy conditions. By each pouring a portion of colored sand into the vase during your ceremony, you symbolize your union as one. The finished work makes a beautiful keepsake to display in your home and you choose the sand colors that best fit with your theme. Kit includes three 8" tall clear glass nesting vases and two portions of colored sand, 17.5 ounces each. Personalization is available. (via Laptop Bride)
