I am getting remarried and my son at the time will be 8 and my daughter will be 10.
We are looking at a small beach wedding and was wondering if it is approiate to have my son walk me down to my "husband to be" and say "her sister and I give her away"? I want them to be involved and want then to feel as if they are a part oft he whole cermony. I also love flowers so I wanted my girl to drop flowers before me and at the front I give her a rose tell her to hand it to her brother and after the marrige is anounced have them called up to be anounced as a family and then children would then give Their new father the rose. For through the wedding I had it to my girl to my son then ending with him! Sorta the unity flower? Does this seem approiate?

I think that is sweet. I got remarried and my son was 4 at the time. I had him be the ring bearer and my daughter, who was 3, the flower girl. Mt son also walked me down the isle. Another idea that you could use: Have your new hubby give a ring to your children as well. That way is binds all of you as a family. Maybe a ring for your daughter and something else for your son if the ring idea isn't something you would like for him. Best of luck and CONGRATS!

I love the idea.
I knew a woman who was renewing her vows with her husband. She had her oldest son be the best man, her daughter be her maid of honor and her youngest son give her away.
There was also a wedding I saw on TV that not only were vows said between the bride and groom but vows from the groom to the bride's daughter (I vow to be your new father . . . ). She also got a ring. It was all so sweet and cute.
They are your kids and they will be part of the family. It is also your wedding. You make the decision.

Sounds easily desirable. yet he's not in all probability "imparting you with away" yet fairly walking you down the aisle. possibly you ought to ask the minister to pass the line, "Who delivers this female" because of the fact, properly, you're an grownup female with a son, and no person is imparting you with to your new husband. yet having your son walk you down the aisle? some thing which you, your son, and all your travellers will never overlook, and that i'm specific will make for an rather touching 2d, AND! will make your son experience as though he's an imperative section interior the marriage...

I think it's so cute to have your son give you away. After all until you are married he is still the "man" of your family right? I also think the unity flower idea sounds really nice. Good luck with everything!

That sounds like a good idea. It's very cute and a way to have your kids involved and feel as if they have a say in who you are remarrying. I like it. Remember it's your wedding, so you can do what you want even if it's not traditional.

Not to be offensive but it sounds kind of creepy. you are the parent. make them ushers or flower girls but don't take the symbolism of a father passing you to your husband as a cute reason to have your son wear a tux. if you are so far removed from what a wedding means save your money & go to the courthouse. you can still party on the beach with your kids later.

I had both of my sons walk me down to my husband. They were 11 and 7 at the time and they both gave me away. They also were my two witness' who signed my marriage license. So they were a big part of my wedding.

I think that is so beautiful! What a wonderul idea, and love the idea of the kids giving him a flower. Its very appropriate.
When I got married in January, my 11 year old nephew gave me away :)

Yes, that sounds sweet. My sons are only 5 and 6 and I am considering having them give me away as well. It seems more there right to entrust me to someone than my fathers, because I feel that he already gave me up as his little girl when I had them.

my mom did that and she said the reason she did that was because now we were sharing our mom with a someone else. It's away of saying we are okay with you marrying our mother and many men knows that the big reason you got to the alter was because of us because every mother ask he children do you like him.lol. i think it would be a great idea and a beautiful picture
