Song during sand ceremony?

bridetobe, on January 28, 2016 at 10:19 PM Posted in Planning 0 5

I'm thinking about having my cousin song during the sand ceremony. The officiant would explain the sand ceremony, then while we are pouring the sand she will sing a 2-3 minute song. Any song ideas?? Anything about staying together, or unity. Anything?? It's a completely nondenominational ceremony.

    It will take less than a minute for the two of you to pour the sand. Then you'll just stand awkwardly until she finishes.

    I usually recommend against any music during the sand ceremony because it starts too soon or lasts too long.

    I explain to you and your guests what is about to happen, then the two of you (or include kids) pour the sand -- doesn't take long, then I explain what just happened.
