At our wedding, me and Shirley decided to do the Unity Sand … Now that I think about it, we did a lot of unity stuff. The whole day was about us becoming one. I guess that is kind of the point when you think about it and put it all into perspective. … so we had two jars of sand. Each was our wedding colors. So Shirley got the Coral colored sand and I got the dark brown colored sand. When the pastor announced it, we made a big production of walking over, together, to a table that we had set up and decorated with a larger vase. Together, we emptied the sand in our vases into the new, bigger vase. It symbolized us being united.
___
A Freudian interpretation of this would interpret the larger jar as symbolizing the children that they will create together as a result of this union.
