Unity Candle Holder

Candle lighting tradition - a verse??

Prior to the wedding ceremony, a large single Unity Candle and two slimmer tapers are placed in holders and arranged in the area where the wedding ceremony will be performed. During the wedding ceremony, after the vows, the bride and groom move to the area where the candles have been readied. Two honoured participants, one representing each side of the family, come forward and light the individual tapers for the bride and groom.

The bride takes her lighted taper; the groom takes his lighted taper. Simultaneously, the bride and groom use their individual tapers to light the single large Unity Candle between them. The bride and groom extinguish their tapers and return them to their holders.

What would be a good verse to say whilst performing the candle lighting???

Dear Lord, please give us everything we need
to forge the bonds that make a family;
Help us to be patient, kind and true,
And guide our hearts in everything we do
So all may see the love that comes from You.

OR

Love is patient an kind
Love bears all things,
believes all things,
hopes all things,
endures all things.
Love never ends.
1 Corinthians 13

OR

On our wedding day,
a new life has its start.
We'll share with each other
one love, one dream, one heart
