A Wedding Ceremony to Remember: Perfect Words for the Perfect Wedding
by Marty Younkin
                                   


                                                                


The Family Wedding - Today, more than 1 in 4 marriages involve children.  Many brides and grooms come together with one or more children present from previous relationships.  Other couples may already have children of their own.  The Family Medallion®, designed by Dr. Roger Coleman, was created to assist with the need for 'family weddings' and to provide resources for supporting family commitments.

Studies show that children accept a parent's re-marriage more readily when they are included in the wedding plans, and are given a tangible symbol of being embraced by the new family.  The Family Medallion® provides this message of love and affirmation and many couples are choosing to present the Family Medallion® to the children during the wedding ceremony itself.

Each Family Medallion® order includes a copy of 'Celebrating the New Family', a resource booklet for using the Family Medallion® during the wedding service.  The Family Medallion® consists of three intertwining circles within a larger circle.  Two of the circles symbolize the union of the man and woman in marriage, while the third circle, represents the joining of children to the union.  All three circles are contained inside a larger circle, signifying the new family which is being created that day.

The Family Medallion® is available as a pendant, lapel pin, ring, key chain, or charm bracelet.  Each medallion is crafted from the finest metals including sterling silver and 14K gold, using the 'lost wax' method of casting which guarantees that each Family Medallion® will always be of heirloom quality.

Since the Family Medallion® is a symbol which honors the bonds of love, it may also be presented on other occasions such as births, baptisms, the blessing of a child, birthdays, anniversaries, religious holidays, Mother's Day, Father's Day and leaving home for college or military service.

The Family Medallion's® expanding circles signify love's willingness to include others.  As you wear it or share it with others, may your love for one another continue to grow in ever
widening circles.
