Exchanging Wedding Vows

My Fianc� and I each have a young daughter from previous marriages and we would love to include them in our vows. I just cant seem to find anything I like. Something short but sweet (my fianc� says to my daughter the the same vow I would say to his daughter) If you could help I would really appreciate it. Creating a vow is a personal matter that will vary with the ages of the children involved. It should be fairly easy to create something with the help of your officiant. You might say something to the effect that you vow that you will always be a family; you accept her and love as your own child; you vow to support and encourage her, laugh with her and cry with her, etc. I don't know the ages of the girls, but you might investigate securing a family medallion to give to each of them as part of the ceremony. The medallions are readily available on the Internet and they come with several suggested presentation vows. Good luck on your future together.
