It was extremely sweet and a tear-jerking moment for sure! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wedding-kids-and-an-adoption#post-2102162 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 10:46:35 +0000 AmandaB8 2102162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love these ideas. The walking out as a family and sand - so adorable. </p> <p>What about at the reception, putting them either at your table or grandparents' table with special chairs that say something like "Daughter/Son of the Happy Couple"? And I'm sure your daughter would love a plastic champagne glass with apple juice or sprite! </p> <p>Overall, while I think it's important to include the kids, remember that the parents' relationship is an awesome foundation for a great healthy family - and the wedding is about your relationship. Don't feel guilty for them not being included in every bit - just like the two of you need date nights, you also need your own time in the wedding. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wedding-kids-and-an-adoption#post-2101981 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 09:21:12 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 2101981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I saw a cute idea where they got a tricycle and decorated it with ribbons and flowers in the wedding colors for the children to ride during the reception. </p> <p>I also really like the idea of the whole family walking down the aisle together at the end of the ceremony instead of the traditional bride and groom. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wedding-kids-and-an-adoption#post-2101448 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 20:44:05 +0000 littleblessings 2101448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD will be 3 in August and DS just turned 1 in January.@simplyfelicity: </p> <p>@avivoca: that would be so cute!!!!! 3 is my lucky number. My favorite season is autumn and SO said we can't get married in November because of hunting season.

How old are your kids? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wedding-kids-and-an-adoption#post-2101366 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 19:56:53 +0000 avivoca 2101366@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I saw something recently where the groom recited vows to his fiance's daughter and that was sweet. </p> <p>Congratulations! October 3 is a great day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wedding-kids-and-an-adoption#post-2101322 Mon, 09 Mar 2015 19:28:26 +0000 littleblessings 2101322@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>SO and I have decided to get married October 3rd of this year. I have no idea what I'm doing. I have my dress. DD and DS will be flower girl and ring bearer. DD will also be adopted by SO that day. So all in all is a huge deal for our whole little family. </p> <p>How do we include the kids more? DD will be 3 and DS will be 1 and a half. </p> <p>We are including the kids in our sand ceremony but idk how else to incorporate them more. </p> <p>Any suggestions? </p>
