Rachel Branston is a wedding celebrant working in Somerset, Devon, Dorset, Bristol and surrounding areas. Following the update, she aims to provide individuals getting married in South West England with a symbolic means of signifying their marriage with a unity ceremony.
A unity ceremony is a ritual performed during a wedding ceremony to represent unification. It can be secular, religious or historical and may also incorporate family members to represent the joining of the couple’s families.
These ceremonies are usually performed after exchanging wedding vows and are widely varied. Rituals that couples can choose from include the Anniversary Capsule, which entails putting together a capsule with mementoes from the wedding, photos and love letters that would then be sealed and opened on an anniversary of the couple’s choosing.
Another ceremonial ritual is the use of unity candles. This practice involves the couple lighting two different candles and then lighting a larger one with their individually lit candles, which symbolizes their new life together as a team. Other rituals include Tree Planting, Wine or Beer Blending and Braiding of the Cross — each holds varying significance unique to the couple’s beliefs or personalities.
For those planning an outdoor wedding, there are also unity ceremony ideas specific to the outdoors. One such ritual, ideal for a beach wedding, is Sand Pouring, where the blending of different coloured sand represents the mixing of personalities or the couple’s individual lives merging into one.
As an organist and pianist who has played at hundreds of weddings, Branston also offers couples the opportunity to have an original song written about their love story and featured in their ceremony, wedding video or played during their first dance. Other than weddings, Ceremonies With Rachel provides services for baby naming, vow renewal, divorce celebration, funerals and more.
Rachel Branston said: “All life’s key events deserve a ceremony reflecting your values, beliefs and personalities. I’m here to help you create and deliver a unique ceremony that is all about you, your family and your friends.”
