How to incorporate children

Alyssa, on February 20, 2020 at 10:09 AM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 0 5
I have been searching Pinterest and google for months and can't find an idea that is right for incorporating my kids into the wedding.


My kids are 7 (boy) and 3 (girl) my son is not my FH child but daughter is..though my son has only known him and I together (been together since he was 2). My daughter will be a flower girl and I want my son to walk me down the aisle...but I don't think that is enough. I don't want to do a candle/sand/puzzle ceremony with them...I would prefer vows or a poem but I can't seem to find a poem/vow for just our children not like a blended family vow bc we are a family and the children are both mine and even to my FH my son is his and the children are brother and sister.
So basically I was wondering if anyone has seen a family vow or poem or has a suggestion bc I cant seem to find anything. I am not a good writer so I don't think that is an option. Thanks!

    Hey there, Alyssa.

    I found this poem online, by Glaedr the poet called Family Comes Together. Do you like this?

    Family comes together

    For always and forever

    In sickness and in health

    In poverty or in wealth


    Family comes together

    For always and forever

    Without any reason

    Anytime or any season


    Family comes together

    For always and forever

    In death or in life

    In happiness or in strife


    Family comes together

    For always and forever

    In anger or in kindness

    Whether all seeing or in blindness


    Family comes together

    For always and forever

    Whether for work or for play

    They somehow find a way

    For family to come together

    Because families are forever


    Here is another one I found called My Advice by Unknown -


    Mum and Dad Get married Today,

    I’d Like to help them on their way.

    So here’s some special advice from me,

    To help them with our family.

    Keep our house filled with laughter

    Let’s have fun forever after.

    Keep the drawer filled up with sweets,

    And give us children lots of treats.

    Make sure you spend time together,

    To keep your happiness forever.

    Make sure you spend lots on us,

    And then us kids won’t make a fuss.

    But the most important thing for you,

    Is to show your love in all you do.

    A caring word, a kiss, a touch,

    And those family cuddles that mean so much.
