Family Unity Candle With Children During Vow Renewal
|
|
|
We are renewing our vows and would like to light a unity candle including our 3 children. Would a family unity candle set be appropriate during a vow renewal ceremony?

You can use the family unity candle set for your vow renewal. The set comes with a ceremony designed for weddings with blended familes, however, you can alter it to suit your needs.
Here is a suggestion for words to say during the unity candle ceremony at your vow renewal:
Wife and Husband each light a family unity candle to symbolize the light of their individual spirits.
Officiant: (NUMBER) years ago, the two of you lit a unity candle to symbolize the sanctity of your marriage. The light of (Insert Number) beautiful children came from that marriage.
The couple, along with one child at a time, light a candle to symbolize the light of the child's soul.
Officant: Now we ask you as a family to light the family unity candle (large candle) which represents the sanctity that is the family. May this candle shine as a beacon light, as an indestructible force. May it be a source of love, warmth and comfort to you forever.
