The lighting of the unity candle is a beautiful addition to a ceremony that symbolizes the merging of two lives into one. In some ceremonies the lighting of the unity candle will also incorporate the families of the bride and groom. There it symbolizes the joining together of two families, as well as the union of the couple, in a marriage. It marks the transfer of commitment from their families to the new commitment in establishing their own family in their life together. This popular symbolic act can be beautifully performed and incorporated into your marriage ceremony and these candles are yours to keep to be used again and again for your future wedding anniversaries.
