Question by kon11stantine11: Need help writing a “cute” & Unique saying for a beach wedding- see details please?
My fiance and I are getting married on the beach in the OBX(north carolina) in June w/ a reception following. Instead of doing a unity candle, since we’ll be on the beach, we’re doing a “sand ceremony”. Basically instead of lighting the candle together you pour sand into a container from 2 seperate containers & it symbolizes your lives being combined.
Before the ceremony, each of the 70 family members who will be there will be given a little heart shaped glass bottle filled with sand. Our names & wedding date will be on it. We are asking them to pour the sand into our 1 container which they will find out later symbolizes not only our seperate lives, but our families are being combined as well.
After the ceremony they are to fill their bottles with sand from the beach, they now have a unique “wedding favor” to take home with them.
We need a short cute saying to attach to the bottle they will be handed that basically tells them the directions- but we want something cute almost poetic.
Thanks in advance!
(Details on the bottle: Heart shaped, about the size of a small tennis ball w/ a cork top. They are engraved w/ our names & date, we are gluing a sea shell or small starfish to the front of it, and putting green ribbon around the top, which this little note will be attached to the bottle with)
Also, please note this is just a cute favor on the side.
When we get to the reception site, each person is getting a picture frame, a chocolate sea shell (gorgeous), and we are also paying for their entire vacation the week we are getting married int he Outerbanks.
So please, no opinions on what my family would and wouldnt like, just help with the answers!
Thanks so much!!!
HA. Well, obviously since its on the beach, we’re all dressing up but going barefoot. My girls are going to be in sundresses, the guys are in khakis and a button down.
We’ll put our shoes back on after the ceremony when we head to the reception.
It was a good idea, but we really are already doing the sand ceremony this way, bottles are ordered- we’re just trying to make it plain and simple.
If it comes down to it we’ll literally just put, go put the sand int he container up front, keep the bottle with you.
…but id like something better!!

I really like the idea of your sand ceremony, but in all honesty no one is going to want to take home some sand.

Unique Chocolate Wedding Favors That Everyone Will Love
There are many reasons why a bride might choose chocolate wedding favors for her reception. They’re typically very affordable, come in a wide variety of flavors, look beautiful and festive, and let’s face it, who doesn’t love chocolate?
But wanting to have chocolate wedding favors for your reception can leave you scratching your head as to what you should actually choose, and how chocolates can be presented at your reception in a beautiful and appropriate manner.
Choosing these favors will depend on many things, but probably your budget more than anything. There’s no limit to the amount of money you can spend on designer bonbons and truffles and other gourmet items, so it’s a good idea to have an actual budget in mind before you even begin shopping around.
You might also want to give some consideration to the theme and tone of your wedding and reception. Is it a very formal affair in an elegant banquet hall or a more casual party? If it’s formal and traditional, then typically you want chocolates that are just as elegant and indulgent. Most chocolate makers have packages that they make up just for weddings, usually a small collection of bonbons or truffles that comes in beautiful boxes. They may be decorated like little tuxedos and wedding gowns. They may be heart-shaped and hand decorated with your names or initials. Some may offer just one very exquisite or decadent chocolate in its own mini tray or foil, and be wrapped with a bit of tulle and ribbon.
Other small treats may be a few chocolates stacked on top of each other to resemble a wedding cake, again, in its own mini tray and ribbon or a small clear box. There are also chocolates in the shape of a letter which is usually in a clear plastic bag and tied with an elegant ribbon.
However, if your reception is more casual then your options can include treats such as chocolate covered pretzels in a small box. If you’re both sports loves, there are chocolates shaped like golf balls, soccer balls, bowling balls, volleyballs, baseballs, and virtually any other sporting ball you can think of.
For those who love casinos or who are planning a Vegas-themed wedding, some chocolate wedding favors are shaped like large dice or like poker chips.
For beach wedding favors, you can find chocolates in the shape of seashells. Some bakers can offer to make just plain squares of chocolate that are stamped with your name or initial.
When opting for chocolate wedding favors such as these, be sure to dress them up with a personal touch. If the box they come in is rather plain, wrap it in beautiful wrapping paper and large ribbon from either your paper supply or fabric store, in a color that matches your reception’s theme.
And of course a very affordable and unique option for chocolate wedding favors is personalized candy bar wrappers, which usually come in a wide variety of designs and styles. These can match your wedding’s tone, whether elegant and traditional or fun and whimsical, and can also provide a nice keepsake for an album or scrapbook.
As more and more chocolate makers realize the popularity and versatility of chocolate wedding favors, you may see that you as a bride have more and more options available to you when it comes time to choosing just the right chocolate favors for your reception.

The following gives concerns that any couple should make when planning a beach wedding to make sure that everything goes off smoothly. One. Weather.

Guests comfort should be considered. Guests should be informed to bring sun lotion and dress reasonably. Shade should also be provided. Two. Special Beach Concerns. Guests sitting in chairs may sink into the sand. Likewise, the couple should know when the tide comes in and how far, so they can plan the wedding in an area where they won’t be flooded. Then, the gusty, loud nature of the beach sound should also be considered.
