Including fh daughter in ceremony

I haven’t done it myself, but I’ve seen a few different things done. A lot of people do the sand ceremony and they’ll add a third color of sand and invite the kid(s) to come up and also pour sand into the big container and mix that way. The next one was a bit more religious, but the bride and groom lit their baptism candles and they gave a third candle to their child (not their baptism one, just a white one) and they all lit the one big candle. Just some small ideas!

Like pp mentioned there’s so many unity ceremony options out there. Or you could even have them read a poem or some sort too or you could say vows to them

I don't know how old she is, but when I was 18 when my Dad married my step-mom and my sister was 15, so she made us her bridesmaids. When my best friend got married, she had her husband's little sister who was about 12 at the time a junior bridesmaid.

My step-mom also let us pick out our dresses. However, we were her only bridesmaids because it was a small wedding, lol. But, we loved helping and shopping with her. Overall, we were happy to be included, so I don't think you need to do anything extra unless you really want to. Oh! But my dad actually did a father/daughter dance with me and my sister, too! We each got a song, it was really sweet.

My FH has a daughter who will be almost 8 at the wedding. I've made her a junior bridesmaid but we are going to have her stand next to the officiant so she can be closest to the action. And during the part of the ceremony where we exchange rings, I'm going to give her a sterling silver beaded bracelet that will match mine. Our officiant found something really sweet for me to say to her too. Basically me promising to stand by her too. That I'm not just marrying her dad but that I'm promising my forever to her too. I'm super excited but I tried to read it the other day and sobbed haha. So we will see how it goes!!

My FH’s 17 year old daughter will by my MOH and her twin brother will be FH’s best man. Then my 9 year old daughter will be our flower girl.
We are also doing a unity glass ceremony with all three of the kids. Www.unityinglass.com

My FHs son is 9 (almost 10) - I had a one on one with him and told him I would love for him to be a part of the ceremony, but it was completely up to him. I expressed that while his dad and I were getting married, I was also vowing to be a part of his life- for me that’s just as important. I asked him if he’d like to stand there with us for something like that, his response was to think about it (it will be a month shortly since I asked and will follow up on our family vacation in a couple of weeks). In the meantime, he loves to draw and asked if he would consider drawing our portrait from one of our family photos. He was eager to do that.
So long answer, but maybe ask how she would like to be a part?
