The Blending Of A Family - How Ceremony Ritual Can Create A Loving Memento For A New Family...
When crafting and writing a wedding ceremony that includes a child or children, I'm very resourceful in how I create and incorporate a family ritual that is appropriate, loving and memorable.
In Paul and Kimberly's morning wedding ceremony at the Woodmark Hotel, Paul's girls helped our couple re-plant a "wedding tree" - complete with watering and scooping of the dirt (no, nobody got dirty!). Smaller children love a ritual that is tactile - meaning, they actually "do something." If you are incorporating a child or children into a ceremony, get creative and mark the moment with a ritual that is meaningful and memorable for your new family.
