Unity tree?

I am getting married in a barn on my finace's property.  This property will be the place where we one day build a house and start a family.  So instead of doing the traditional unity candle, I'd love to plant a tree with both of our families doing/contributing something on our property.  That way when we are ready to build, a tree had been rooted and growing.  I have no idea how to incorporate this into the ceremony!! I would love for both of our mothers to bring something when they walk down the aisle..either a trowel or some type of garden tool or dirt.  However, I'm at a loss of trying to be creative, without being tacky! Please help me and give your suggestions of how we should incorporate the whole thing!
