Build a delicious marriage foundation with a unity sandwich

Unity candles, unity sand ceremonies, unity salt ceremonies, unity cocktails, and now the UNITY SANDWICH! Rachel and her groom decided that the ever-popular sammich was the ideal metaphor for their marriage.

Here are the layers and their meanings:

• Bread: The foundation that represents trust and communication
• Meat: Representing strength from protein
• Colby Jack cheese: Representing two families coming together like the mixed cheese
• Tomato: Rachel says, “Is it a fruit? Is it a vegetable? It's technically a fruit, but it's still weird and confusing… so tomatoes represent conflict.” HA!
• Lettuce: Pulled from the head, it represents the dreams they share
• Mayo and mustard: Adding flavor and excitement to the marriage
