Sand Ceremony Wording Help!

I am putting together our ceremony wording, but am needing help with this peice.  We are having a sand ceremony in which, Our Pastor (representing god), Fi and myself will have our own colors of sand and perform the sand ceremony.  I need some kind of wording to go before this, then during we will have "It's your Love" sang.  Any ideas?

Re: Sand Ceremony Wording Help!

  • I'm also doing the sand ceremony.  I've been trying to find wording as well.  I've done a google search, but still really haven't found what I'm looking for. 
    When my mom comes down to be seated, she will pour my color and as FI's mother comes down, she will pour his color. (Just as if it were the unity candle) So, I can't decided whether the third sand (representing God/Foundation), needs to already be in the container before the wedding starts. 
    I'm not really sure how to help you, I'm struggling with it myself. 
    During our pouring, we are having "When God Made You" by NewSong played.
    Maybe between you and your pastor you can get the wording perfect!

  • This is the wording that one bride used, I'm just wanting to add to it now.  But, imaybe it will help you some! : ) 

    You are committing here today to share the rest of your lives with one another. Today, this relationship is symbolized through the pouring of these individual containers of sand into one. One, representing you, B: and all that you were, are, and will be. One, representing you, R: and all that you were, are, and will be. The third one represents Christ, all that He is and will forever be.
