Weddings are great occasions for celebration. It is one of the most special events in a person’s life. Thus, it is very important that you are a hundred percent sure that you love your mate before saying your I do’s. After all, marriage is a commitment that should last a lifetime.

During the ceremony, various things are used to symbolize different aspects of the marriage. A unity candle is lighted by the couple together to stand for finally being one. Coins represent the sharing of wealth. Rings, which are circle in shape, symbolize the continuity of the relationship. And the Bible is an indication that husband and wife must also let God help them make their union work.
