When Stace and I were married, we included our children - not only in the ceremony, but in the vows as well. Not only did we write our own vows, I created a family handfasting ritual. In it, Stace and I promised to raise each other's son as our own, and to support and love them always. The knots were *not* untied (we worked our way out of them), and the ribbons are wrapped around a pitcher in my kitchen, for all to see.
