The Blending of 2 into 1

If you are getting married, you may have thought about the part of your ceremony that symbolizes the uniting of 2 individuals into 1. For Christians, this is usually the unity candle. Before the cremony, a member of each family, usually the mothers, each light a candle. Then at some point during the ceremony, the bride and groom take those 2 candles and together they light the unity candle. Catholics dont recognize the unity candle, but there are other options. Sometimes they have a sand ceremony. This is where 2 different colors of sand are layered together with the same symbolism.

Danielle and Nathan decided to do something a little different. Danielle, a kindergarten teacher was inspired by her students to paint a heart with her groom. Nathan with red, and Danielle with yellow, they painted a heart together and then blended the colors together. How are you going to symbolize your  blending of 2 into 1? (And the ring bearer is just thrown in because its also a cute idea.)
