Weddings Including the Kids
Recently I had the great honor to officiate at a wedding ceremony that honored the blending of a new family. The bride and her daughter, and the husband, asked me to include her young daughter in the ceremony, to make sure she understood how important she is and to formally and ritually bind her to her mom’s husband. I included a beautiful sand ceremony into the overall wedding, during which the bride, the groom and the daughter each poured their different-colored sands into a beautiful vase as a visual reminder of the blended family they are creating. It was very emotional, spiritual, and powerful for them all.
