Symbolism:
The Wedding Vase is an ancient vessel still used in traditional Native American wedding ceremonies.
One spout of the vessel represents the husband; the other, the wife.
The looped handle represents the unity achieved with marriage.
The space created within the loop represents the couples own circle of life.
The wedding vase is a treasured and sacred tradition among many Native American Indian tribes, particularly the Navajo people.
These vases are not only symbolic in the ceremony performed just prior to the wedding itself, but also in the shape and construction of the vessel.
