How many Brides out there are using your children in your bridal party, especially step children?

FH has 2 daughters from a previous relationship they will be my Jr bridesmaids, ages 13 and 10. My oldest son (age 9) from a previous relationship will be "ring security" along with our 4 year old son (he is very shy and I know he won't walk down alone).

What are you doing to unite your families as one? Anything special?

We have blended family necklaces for the kids I found on Amazon. We are presenting them at the ceremony only placing them on the oldest from both sides (I place one on his oldest, he places one on my oldest). After the ceremony the younger kids will receive theirs.

My son is the ring bearer and my daughter is the flower girl We're doing the sand ceremony my son will be 2 so we are going to assist him to keep things moving lol my daughter is from a previous relationship

FH'son is a quiet teenager n doesn't want to be 'in' the wedding, so it feels pretty limiting but we are respecting that. Im looking into having a quilt made for him with wide boarders n 6 squares...1 for each year I've known him.

We have 2 16 yr olds (1 is his son, 1 is my daughter) and i have a 13 yr old. They will all be jr bridesmaids and groom men. We are doing a sand ceremony woth all of us. To unite us all as one

My ex is also getting married this year, and our son (11) will be the best man and daughter (6) will be the maid of honor for both. They are both excited. My son wants to organize a bachelor party and give a speech (!!).

We will probably also do a sand ceremony with four different colors.

My two teen boys are standing up with FH, his two teen girls will stand up with me. My boys will walk with me down the aisle as well. Both FH and I will say one thing about the kids in our vows but no unity ceremony. At the reception, FH and I will do our first dance then halfway through the song changes & we will bring all 4 kids to the dance floor with us.

My 11 yr old son is the ring bearer. My 20 yr old son will help my dad walk me down and my 21 yr old daughter is my MOH

FH and I each have a daughter, ages 12, 14. They are jr bridesmaids.

My 18 yr old son will walk me down the aisle and my 16 yr old daughter is MOH. We are doing the sand ceremony. We will also be sharing a dance with them.

I have 13 year old twins from a previous relationship. They will be almost 15 by the time FH and I get married. My son is a junior groomsman and my daughter is a junior bridesmaid. They are both excited about it. Still trying to figure out how to incorporate them into the bach parties. I'm planning on having my children give me away to FH. Idk 100% though. Haven't talked to them about it

My 18 year old from a previous relationship will be a groomsman, our 16 year old daughter will be my only bridesmaid, and our 14 year old son will be the other groomsman.

Future step daughter, who will be 11 when we get married, will be jr bridesmaid. We are also using Unity in Glass for the ceremony rather than a candle or sand. She is picking 2 of the glass bead colors and then helping to create the bead mixture that will sculpted into art.

My 9 year old daughter will be a Jr. Bridesmaid

The sand ceremony is a good idea! I've also seen a company online where you can get glass and combine them, and then the company forges it into a sculpture. It was kinda expensive for me, but your budget may be different and that may be cooler than sand for your older kids!

Company is called unity in glass

My son he's 9 from a previous relationship will stand up with FH and our daughter she's 21 months will be the flower girl

Our grown children are THE wedding party.... I have three, plus my daughter in law and my FH has two and it worked our perfectly... three ladies three guys total..... Problem is they are in their 20's and it is soooooo hard to get them to do certain things.... Like pick out a Damn Dress!!! they have until next friday! LOL

I have a 10 year old from a previous relationship and my FH asked him to be one of his groomsmen. So cute and made my heart so happy.
