A Christian wedding is a ceremony that celebrates the union of two individuals in the presence of God and their community. It typically includes traditional elements such as scripture readings, prayers, and hymns, reflecting the couple's faith and commitment to each other. The ceremony often takes place in a church or other sacred space, emphasizing the spiritual significance of marriage. During the wedding, the couple exchanges vows and rings, symbolizing their love and fidelity. Many couples also choose to include a unity ceremony, such as lighting a candle together, to represent their new life as a married couple. The event is often followed by a reception to celebrate with family and friends.
