A Wedding Cross Rich In Symbolism

This wedding cross is perennially popular every wedding season, in large part because of its rich symbolism that reminds us of all the different components of marriage. A tree grows along the entire length and breadth of the cross, reminding us that marriage is like an organism, always growing, changing, and adapting to become stronger and more durable. At the base of the cross is a pair of wedding bands, reminding us of the sacrament of matrimony. The wedding bands are overlaid to resemble the infinity symbol, depicting the fact that matrimony is based in God’s infinity. At the heart of the cross is a beautiful and heartwarming picture of a couple embracing.

“May we be open to the grace of God in this work of a lifetime. Maybe we see each other through the eyes of our Creator, who brought us together. May this sacred union help to heal and repair our world and ourselves.” (Anonymous)
