Please dust off your wedding cap... Need ideas
My BIL is getting married and wants to do something during the
ceremony other than the unity candle and sand ceremony. FWIW - they are
very strong in to their faith (Seventh Day).
I don't even want to go over to the Knot, so I am hoping you'll dust off your wedding brain and help with ideas.
Thanks ladies!
Re: Please dust off your wedding cap... Need ideas
We gave roses to our parents during the ceremony. Very emotional.
If they are taking communion there can be two cups of wine (or whatever they want to use) with another cup on a platter in the middle. They then pour each of their cups into the main cup, showing a coming together, before partaking. Just don't forget the platter / something to catch any overflow.
We combined elements of the Eastern Orthodox wedding into our ceremony (I'm orthodox) and included the common cup. It's similar in essense to the unity candle or sand ceremony, but the couple will each drink three times from a cup of wine (except that in our case DH, who brought the cup, didn't bring any dang wine, so we substituted with water.) The wine represents Jesus' miracle turning water to wine at the wedding celebration at Cana.
HTH!
We did the roses too.
A red rose to our own mom, and a white rose to MIL. ?It was really nice.?
We had the Lasso, and coin ceremony too. ?Both were really nice.?
This scares me wine on my wedding dress...scary! I'm clumsy though.
They can combine just about anything with color! Who do they want to do the something special for? eachother, parents. What religion are they?
