Sand ceremony wording with my daughter

I have an 8 year old daughter that will participating in a sand ceremony with my fiance and I. I've been scouring the web for wording that would work for us and have come up empty handed, unfortunately. The ceremony is NOT religious, and there are no other children involved. Can anyone offer suggestions for wording of this ceremony? And on a side note, I can't decide if I want this to happen before or after the vows/kissing go down... I need some help!

    I'm going to make the suggestion most of the other Knot posters would make:  Don't have any sand ceremony or any other "unity" ceremony at all to "involve" your daughter.  She will be "involved" just by being present and in photos with you.

    Your wedding is about the union of you and your FI-not about her and your FI.

    I appreciate the link! And the choice to involve her was ours, the sand ceremony is how we wanted to do it. Her biological dad has been absent since day 1 and my fiance has really fallen into that role naturally over the past 4 years. Including her in our wedding ceremony is something we decided on a long time ago... because it truly is the "official" forming of our family.


    ***Edit: I would just like to point out that my question was about suggestions for wording/timing of the sand ceremony, not your opinions on including my daughter in it. I've been reading over a bunch of other threads and have seen the nastiest, most negative comments. Really a rude bunch here. Will take my question elsewhere.

     I love the idea of a sand ceremony with your daughter, my fiance and I are also having a sand ceremony and we are going to have my oldest son (from a past relationship) and our younest son participating. Please let me know any good websites you find with wording
