The "Unity Sand" ceremony is a popular option for beach weddings in the Cayman's Islands. Simply put, it represents two lives blending into one. In original sand ceremonies, the bride and groom would toss handfuls of sand together into the wind. The grains combined and, unable to be separated, symbolized the unity and eternity. In today's sand ceremony, different colors or containers of sand are used to represent each person and their respective families. The bride and groom each pour their containers of sand into one vase and bring home a keepsake of the moment they united their lives in marriage.
