do any of you have ideas on a gift to give a stepchild at the ceremony. Our officiant said it is common to give the child something as well since you are joining as a 'family'.
She will be 13 by the time we get married. Any ideas would be very helpful.
thanks!

My cousin's daughter was 10 or 11 when my cousin got married. They gave her a ring - it was tri-colored gold (rose, yellow, and white) to symbolize the new family.

Re: Gift for Stepchild
When I married DH I also gained a step-daughter, she was 9. Since DH and I have our w-rings I decided to get my step-daughter and I matching rings (costume jewelry). We don't wear them all the time but it's nice to have something like that for when we dress up, and it meant a lot to both her and DH.

What about a heart locket with her name engraved on it? That's what I'm doing for my niece, who is my flower girl.
