Re: People who have kids...

well, my daughter is my flower girl.. and i am thinking i MIGHT have FH exchange vows with her as step-father and step-daughter, but im not sure.. im afraid she will get too shy to say anything... so i dunno. (she's 4)

aww thats cute!!! I love that idea! She'll feel like a little bride!!!!Even if shes shy and doesn't say anything I think its adorable.

I once saw at a ceremony when the exchanging of rings happened the couple also exchanged them with the kids.

My kids are 10 (twins) and I want them included but I know they wont wear rings but it may be nice for them to have. They will be jr BM!

That is adorable! I've heard of the exchanging of the vows with the kids also, I think that is so sweet, especially for those old enough to understand the meaning behind it

My son is 5 and I am having him walk me down the aisle and stand up there with me and FH.

Not sure if Ill do this but I've seen two things take place.

1) The kids join in the cake cutting, and a picture is snapped with the bride, groom and kids holding the cake knife together.

2) They are blessed with the couple at the ceremony as husband,wife and family.

The cake cutting was nice to see in a photo.

My daughter is going to be our flower girl but pur priest said that theres no real way to include since shes ours and not a step child so she wont be included in the ceremony Fh will dance with her to Father Daughter song by Paul SImon...you can include their name on the invitation if youd like
