Garden-Themed Wedding Traditions

Video Transcript

"Hi I'm Jessica Meiczinger with Simply Divine Events and I have been a wedding planner for over 10 years now and I just want to talk about some ideas on how to include ceremony tradition in your garden themed wedding. One thing that comes to mind is the unity candle but chances are if you are having a garden themed wedding you are getting married outside in a garden. So some ideas to keep in mind and tips are to make sure that when you do have your unity candle, make sure all your candles are at least about an inch to two inches below the rim of the glass so that the flames don't blow out. Also keep a lighter handy behind the union candles just in case a gust of wind comes by and blows out the flame. Another thing to do instead of doing the unity candle you can also have the sand ceremony or the salt ceremony. So those don't you know, obviously don't require a flame so it makes it easier and it won't blow away or blow out for that matter. Another idea is to do the rose ceremony where the bride and groom present a rose to the in-laws which brings, or usually is a surprise to the bride's parents or to the groom's parents and it is just a nice symbol to unite both families. And so those are just some ideas on how to incorporate ceremony traditions into your garden themed wedding."
