"You have
committed here today to share
the rest of your lives with each
other. Today, this relationship
is symbolized through the
pouring of these two individual
containers of sand.”
“One
representing you Bride and all
that you were, all that you are,
and all that you will ever be.”
( Bride pours some of his sand
first. )
“The other
representing you Groom, and all
that you were, all that you are,
and all that you will ever be.”
( Groom pours some of her sand
first. )
“As these two
containers of sand are poured
into the third container, the
individual containers of sand
will no longer exist, but will
be joined together as one.” (
They pour the rest of the sand
together. )
“Just as these
sands can no longer be separated
and poured into the individual
containers, so will your
marriage be.”
