New Wedding Unity Candles

A unity candle creates a special, thoughtful moment during the wedding ceremony.  Many couples will also take a moment to relight their unity candle on their anniversary.

During the ceremony your minister or JP will ask the parents of the bride and groom to light 2 small tapers.   Later in the ceremony, the bride and groom will each take the taper lighted by their parent and use it to light their unity candle.   The lighted unity candle represents their new marriage.

Due to insurance reasons, many churches will not let you light a candle unless the candle is “smokeless and dripless”.  If you are looking for a unity candle, be sure to look for a candle that is smokeless and dripless. 

Here is a sneak peak at some new unity candles for Spring 2008.
