Your Officiant will say: You’ve chosen to celebrate your wedding by lighting the Unity Candle, signifying the union you are about to create. You have each chosen someone to light your individual candles - someone special to you who has helped shape you into the individuals you are today. Jonathan, you have chosen your mother to light your candle.
Kelley, you have chosen your grandmother to light your candle in your mother's place. As you take your individual candles and light the center candle, your two individual flames will become one, burning even more brilliantly together than your individual flames did apart, never to be separated again. So too will your lives be from this day forward.
