United we stand...

"The wedding candles are necessary in wedding rituals because they enhance the joyful wedding ambiance. Lighting the candles during the event can be very uplifting and euphoric for the happy couple as well as their families and guests. The candle lights move gracefully with the slight air movement as if dancing according to the tempo of the music played in the background. Indeed, these candles are capable in stirring the romantic mood in everyone present during the wedding ceremony.

The wedding unity candles add a special touch to a wedding ceremony because they symbolize the eternal love between the happy couple. These candles usually come in the set of three candles. The two small candles, flanking a larger candle, are lit prior to the wedding ceremony to represent each individual life of the soon-to-be-married couple. Once the wedded couple has exchanged their nuptial vows, the large single candle in the middle is lit simultaneously by the newlyweds, using the flames on the small candles. This represents the newly-weds’ life together as one. The candles are then left to burn throughout the wedding ceremony."

And... I've finally completed ours... Over a couple of weeks, late nights, in between work, 30 mins here, 20 mins there, 10 mins tomorrow... And it's done...
