Including a step parent in a wedding can be a meaningful and important way to acknowledge their role in the family.
Here are some suggestions on how to include a step parent in the wedding:
- Involve them in the planning process: You can invite your step parent to participate in the wedding planning process, such as attending dress fittings or helping with the seating arrangement.
- Walk down the aisle together: You can choose to walk down the aisle with both your biological parent and step parent. This can be a beautiful way to honour both parents and signify the joining of two families.
- Have a special dance: During the reception, you can have a special dance with your step parent. This can be a touching moment to show your appreciation for their love and support.
- Give a speech: You or your spouse can give a speech during the reception to acknowledge and thank your step parent for their role in your life.
- Floral Gift: You can give your step parent a special corsage or boutonniere to wear during the ceremony or reception. This is a simple yet meaningful way to include them in the wedding.
Ultimately, it’s important to communicate with your step parent about their involvement in the wedding and what would make them feel comfortable and appreciated.
