• Do something special to thank your parents (or other special people) for their support.
• Symbolize the new life you are beginning. Options include Unity candles, blended sand ceremony and mixing water
• Memorialize your departed loved ones. There are many ways to do it.
• Pray for a family member who is ill. This can add weight and impact to your ceremony, and it can raise the Spiritual energy.
• If one or both of you already have children, consider adding a blended-family section of the ceremony so your children can be reassured that they are gaining love because of your marriage. (Click here for more information on blended family ceremonies)
Talk with your officiant. He or she will have suggestions on different ways you can include these ideas in your wedding ceremony.
