This ceremony symbolises the union of two individual lives into one, through the pouring of sand into a vessel, to serve as a visual reminder of the wedding day.

This is very suitable for blended families, or couples who have children already, and younger children tend to enjoy the visual and tactile effect of pouring the coloured sands.

For couples who enjoy cooking together, two types of salt can be blended, and then brought home to be used in as seasoning for the meals they share together in the family home.

Salt and Earth can also be used for this ceremony. If a couple like to cook, Salt is a great one. If from different countries Earth from their homeland a wonderful way to honour where they have come from.
