When children are present... marriage is more than the union of two persons. It is, in fact,
the proclaiming of a new family. “Celebrating The New Family” offers a resource
for including, in a significant way, the children of those being married in the
wedding celebration. The Family Medallion Ceremony honors family relationships. By
adding one or more additional circles to the two “Marriage Circles,” the
presentation of the Family Medallion transcends the “two-ness” language of many
ceremonies and offers a unique opportunity to celebrate the family nature of
God’s creation. Dr. Caldwell would be happy to discuss how you can celebrate the
new family and strengthen your family ties.
