Blessing For After a Unity Candle Ceremony

2/22/2019

 
May the blessing of light,
Be with you always,
Light without and light within.
And may the sun shine
Upon you and warm your heart
Until it glows
Like a great fire
So others may feel
The warmth of your love for one another

Unity Candle Ceremony Script Option 11

2/14/2019

 
Bride and Groom have chosen to commemorate their marriage by lighting a Unity Candle.  This ceremony represents the joining of two families.  Both of their mothers have already lit their candles as a symbol of their love towards their children and from where they come.  Their children will now join those flames.

Light is the essence of our existence. Each one of us possesses an inner glow that represents our hopes, our dreams and aspirations in life.

Bride and Groom, the two distinct candle flames represent your lives before this day, individual, unique and special. Please take the candle symbolizing your life before today, and together light the center candle to symbolize the union of your individual lives. (Place the tapers back into their holders—join hands and remain near the candles) As this new flame burns undivided, so shall your lives now be one. From now on your thoughts will always be for each other rather than just your individual selves. Your plans will be mutual, your joys and sorrows both will be shared alike.

Although you are now entering into a marriage relationship, you do not, however, lose your personal identity. Rather, you will use your special individuality to create and strengthen the relationship of marriage. Therefore all three candles remain glowing. The individual candles represent all that makes each of you the wonderful and unique person the other admires and respects. The Unity candle in the center symbolizes the union of your lives, families, and friends, as well as your shining commitment to each other, and to a lasting and loving marriage.

May the blessing of light,
Be with you always,
Light without and light within.
And may the sun shine
Upon you and warm your heart
Until it glows
Like a great fire
So other may feel
The warmth of your love
 For one another

Unity Candle Ceremony Script Option 10

2/14/2019

 
Fire is believed by many to represent passion and purity. It is also associated with the security of home and family, as the warmth of the hearth and the “home fires.”
We kindle this light in harmony with all that is good in life. Its’ dancing flame symbolizes the beauty and vitality of the love that has brought Bride and Groom here today, which will enrich and sustain their lives through the years ahead.
Bride and Groom will now light the outside candles representing the light of their individual selves.
Bride and Groom, as together you now light the single candle, while leaving the separate candles burning, may it be known to all that you are individuals, each unique and different. You have chosen the common commitment of sharing your lives, your hearth and your home together.

Unity Candle Ceremony Script Option 8

2/14/2019

 
​There are many traditions and rituals commonly included in marriage ceremonies. One of the most beautiful and expressive is the Unity Candle. Two fires, separate and individual, uniting their flames to burn as one. Imagine how you might describe fire to someone who had never experienced it before. It would be difficult to explain, because it is both substance and energy at the same time. The best you might do is to say that there is always plain evidence of it when it exists, and that you can feel its warmth. Love similarly would be hard to describe to someone who had never experienced it before, except to say there is always visible evidence of it when it exists…and you can feel its warmth. Bride and Groom, as a symbol of the union of your separate selves, please now light the Unity Candle.

Unity Candle Ceremony Script Option 7

2/14/2019

 
It is a well-known phrase that actions speak louder than words. Actions, such as the rituals performed today for your wedding ceremony – holding hands, carrying flowers, and exchanging rings — convey deep symbolic meaning. They show that you are committed to taking action with regard to your promises. At this time, I’d like each of you to take a candle and together ignite the larger one to flame. This is a glowing reminder that in a true marriage, your lives are both individual and together as one. This is also a symbolic reminder that while we are all one with God, as you are now within your marriage, you still maintain your own sparks of the divine.

Unity Candle Ceremony Script Option 6

Bride and Groom have chosen to affirm their love by the lighting of a unity candle.
They have also asked their families to participate in the lighting ceremony. In so doing,
they signal their desire to not only join as one in their union but to also unite two families together as one.
From every human being there rises a light and when two souls that are destined for each other find one another, their streams of light flow together and a single, brighter light goes forth from their united being.

Unity Candle Ceremony Script Option 4

2/14/2019

 
Fire is one of the basic elements on earth. Many ancient people worshipped it as the source of life itself. Throughout history, many different societies have used candle lighting to celebrate and acknowledge special holidays and events. For us, the light of these candles represents the foundation of love, its heat and its fragility.
These three candles represent each one of you and your marriage. You will take your individual candles and light the large candle in the center, the candle representing your unity in marriage. Your individual selves will remain burning and bright even as you become unified in your lives together. Let the lighting of these candles reflect our thoughts on this day. Prior to this moment you each walked separate paths. Now as you light your candle, you embark on a marital partnership — a single path together.

Unity Candle Ceremony Script Option 2

2/14/2019

 
​Bride and Groom, together as you light this candle of unity, you symbolize the flame of your own individual selves joining to ignite the partnership of marriage. You also bring the warmth, strength and wisdom of your family’s fire as kindling for your own.  Your flames are separate, yet they feed the same fire. From this day onward, may you bask in the beauty of the light of your love, may its light shine bright and steady upon your path together and may its heat keep you warm through all the days of your lives and beyond.

Unity Candle Ceremony Script Option 1

2/14/2019

 
Bride and Groom, the two separate candles symbolize your separate lives, separate families and separate sets of friends. Please light the candles and that together you light the center candle.

The individual candles represent your lives before today. Lighting the center candle represents that your two lives are now joined to one light, and represents the joining together of your two families and sets of friends to one. 

Now you have lit a fire and that fire should not go out.
The two of you now have a fire that represents love, understanding and a philosophy of life.
​
It will give you heat, food, warmth and happiness.
The new fire represents a new beginning - a new life and a new family. The fire should keep burning; you should stay together. You have lit the fire for life, until old age separates you.
