Unity Candles and Unity Candle Stands
The Unity Candle is a beautiful part of the wedding ceremony that is rich with meaning. As guests enter, the tapers and pillar are unlit, waiting for the right time to symbolize the profound meaning of the wedding ceremony. The groom’s parents enter, carrying a lit taper, a glimmer of hope, the twinkle of desire for a son. The parents light the groom’s taper symbolizing that their love has brought a son into the world. They have loved him, cared for him, and watched him grow and today they willing present him for marriage. Then the bride’s mother enters. She too carries a lit taper and lights the bride’s taper symbolizing the bringing forth of a daughter, and presenting their precious, beautiful, and loved daughter to be wed. It is good to consider that the two tapers, symbolizing the bride and groom, stand side by side. One is not over the other; they are equally valuable, responsible, and accountable for the marriage relationship. Each has a unique but equally important role to play. After the bride and groom have said their vows and are legally bound to one another, they each take their taper and light the unity pillar. This moment symbolizes the truth that they are no longer single lives standing alone, they are joined and their relationship is now at the center. Some couples leave their individual tapers burning, symbolizing that they are still individuals, with unique strengths and…flaws. Other couples choose to extinguish their candle as a sign that they view the marriage relationship as being of greater importance than the wants and needs of the individual. Yes, the Unity Candle is an important part of any wedding ceremony. We at True Blue Bridal send you our best wishes for a beautiful wedding and an enduring marriage!
