A New Wedding Tradition

Offbeat brides are putting a new twist on the unity ceremony this wedding season. Sand mixing, wherein the happy couple makes some hideous, two-tone sand art in a giant cognac snifter with their names engraved on the side, has given the unity candle a run for its money in recent years, but this is next-level: a sand ceremony that results in a gorgeous, 5″ tall, wearable masterpiece. Just kidding. These new boots with a sand-filled heel from Rodarte are pretty hot, though.
