Beach Wedding Sand Ceremony?

Pastor Steve Durkac Posted on August 28, 2019 by Steve DurkacMarch 24, 2020avatar

If you want to add a nice meaningful touch to your wedding ceremony, consider adding a sand ceremony. It is popular down here on the beach and is much like the unity candle ceremony that you may have seen in a church wedding. The idea behind it goes back to biblical times when covenants were made between two parties and the blending of each parties’ sand indicated their pledge to the covenant they made.

Pastor Steve Durkac Posted on August 15, 2019 by Steve DurkacMarch 24, 2020avatar
