I wanted to do something different because I don't know what I would do with sand or candles for the unity part of the ceremony. We are going to get a tree, our moms will add soil before we do. And it will be planted at our home as a symbol of planting our roots together. We have to get the tree (obviously something relatively small) this weekend since the wedding is 12 days away. Does anyone know of any trees that symbolize something for the wedding. Or maybe a good tree to use for this?
