Today's wedding are all about personalization. Nothing is more special then a Wedding Ceremony that has been customized to the individuals sharing vows.
Couples like to include a special element to their ceremonies such as the Unity Candle, a Sand Ceremony, a Rose Ceremony or even a Wine Ceremony.
Here is another beautiful ceremony that puts the others to shame: A Ring Warming Ceremony.
This ceremony is a way to get every single guest involved in the ceremony. As the ceremony begins, have the Officiant make an announcement that the wedding rings will be making their way through the guests. Ask that each guest hold them and say a prayer, wish or blessing over the couples rings and their marriage. By the time the rings reach the couple, they will be warmed by their friends and family's hands and well wishes!
Practical tips: An usher can track and follow the aisle where the rings are at all times. Put the rings in a little pouch or tie them securely to a ring pillow, so they don't fall on the floor or become seperated. This ceremony works best with a small group or a longer ceremony.
That is a lovely idea. I can imagine that would be very meaningful and moving to everyone in attendance.
That is such a good idea…great way to get the guests involved and very sentimental.
What a great idea. Very unique and such a nice personal touch for guests.
This is a fantastic idea, and definitely allows for an even more personal connection between the guests and the couple on their special day!
