Hoping SOMEONE has some experience or advice, as my search of Al Gore's internet has come up empty ...
I would like to include a small passage in our wedding ceremony (after our exchange of vows or rings) that incorporates my FI's eight-year-old son. In my head, I'd like it to be about the joining or creation of a family. Has anyone seen this, particularly any wording in how it was done?
I think the way I'd like to execute is it for him (he's the best man/ring bearer) coming in front of us and holding one of each of our hands as we do this, and my FI and I holding hands as well. I don't want it to be hokey, but as we try to get an eight-year-old to understand the importance of the ceremony itself, there's no better way than having him involved (possibly) in this way.
Any advice is welcome!
