Blend Family Wedding Ceremony

When either the bride or groom already has children it is important to consider how the new marriage will affect the children.  One way to make the children feel included is to have a blended family wedding ceremony.  During the wedding ceremony your minister or JP will take the time to formally announce the new family.  In some instances the children may even have their own vows. If your child is too young or too shy to say their own vows, you may simply give them a piece of jewelry or have them participate in a family sand ceremony.  Read our article on how to perform a unity sand ceremony.
