The Wedding Vase plays a significant role in Native American weddings, historically and currently. Representing the husband and wife, the vase embodies the unity of the new couple. This sacred tradition has a beautiful process, from creation through the wedding and celebrations; afterwards, it becomes a permanent treasure.
Ancient ceremonies included a liquid from the tribe’s Medicine Man. Currently, people use a wide array of different liquids as symbols for deep passion and eternal love for the couple. Then the man and the woman seal their promises and vows by each drinking from the vase; hence, two spouts.
A wedding vase is a truly beautiful piece of art and a great way to wish a new couple well. Explain the story with the gift, and tears will ensue.
Each vase is unique, as each couple is unique, so look at many before making a decision. Be selective, find the perfect vase, and you will have found the perfect gift.
