What better way to symbolize the the new union of two people and families than to pop open some champagne or wine during their wedding ceremony. The very act itself communicates a powerful non-verbal message to everyone in attendance that says so much more than words alone..

For those couples who cannot use a unity candle outdoors but want a photo opportunity of equally significant impact, wine sharing is a popular alternative. 

In this particular example, the mothers of the bride and groom were called upon to pop open the champagne and blend the two bottles prior to the bride and groom enjoying it. Lots of variations can be made to make this ceremony element fit your circumstances. Call Lynne and Keith at 613-831-7555 to discuss your vision for a wine-sharing element in your ceremony.
