One of the good things about having a Civil Ceremony is that you can personalise it yourself by including readings and performances of special pieces that are important to you both. How about the idea of lighting a Unity Candle together in the ceremony ; a candle that you can then relight every year on your wedding anniversary to remind you both of your special day and the important promises you made. The lighting of a candle can be accompanied by your own choice of music to add an extra special touch.
