The two individual candles represent the bride and groom. These candles are usually lit by the individual mothers (or family member) and burn during the time of the processional thru the exchanging of vows. After vows are repeated the bride and groom take their individual candle and together light the center unity candle. Once the center candle is lit the individual candles are extinguished. This represents the two individual lives becoming one new family.
