My beloved son Matthew was married in a beautiful outdoor ceremony at their home in Sparta WI. His new wife had a special surprise for her new husband. A tradition practiced at many ceremonies is combining separate parts into one. Some do it by two lighted candles joining together to light one bigger candle.
Their choice was the combining of black a white sands. BUT the manner was rather ingenious on her part. She secretly bought him a new Glock M-19 compact pistol as her wedding gift to him. His current concealed carry gun is a Cz sp-01, while more compact than the full size 75-B, it's still pretty big. Anyway the black and white sand was contained in glass tubes set in a wire basket along side of roses and white lace. The whole thing was on a bench he made for seating at parties around the fire pit.
Both the bride and groom shot their respective glass cylinders shattering the glass and mixing the sand. Now Matt had never even seen that Glock, and it was unfired. Cassandra, my new daughter-in-law had his Cz, which she had shot a lot and it has a Crimson Trace laser, so it showed up good even on a sunny day. She hit hers shooting first but it tipped his black sand cylinder almost on it's side, giving him a much smaller target. He hit it anyway, mixing the sand! Range was maybe 20 feet.

She's a keeper guys & gals! And she's a dietician and a great cook, so Matt will have a long healthy life with good eats!
