Family Medallion®
With children present, marriage is more than the union of two people. It is the proclaiming of a new family... By adding a third circle to the two "marriage circles," the Family Medallion recognizes love as a relationship of more than two... For love to grow, there must always be a reaching out to include others. Love, therefore, is ultimately directed toward creating a new family, a new community, a new future.
How does the Family Medallion meet the special needs of couples with children? More than one in four U.S. marriages involve divorced or widowed persons with children or relationships in which children are born prior to the wedding. Yet few marriage ceremonies recognize the family nature of these relationships or the mixed emotions children may feel in blended families, about sharing their lives with a new parent and perhaps new brothers or sisters.
Studies show that children accept a parent's marriage more readily when they feel included in the wedding plans and are given some tangible symbol of being embraced by the new family. The Family Medallion presentation, as a gift or during the wedding ceremony, provides that message of love and affirmation.
What is The Family Medallion?
The Family Medallion is an attractive 3/4" x 5/8" oval pendant with three equally merged circles. Two circles represent the marriage union while the third symbolizes the importance of children within the family. The Family Medallion is crafted from the finest metals using the "lost wax" method of casting. This technique guarantees that your Family Medallion will always be of heirloom quality.
How is The Family Medallion used during the ceremony?
After the couple exchange vows, the bride and groom give a Family Medallion to each child (pendant, ring or lapel pin) as they pledge to love and support their children. This presentation ceremony, "Celebrating the New Family," comes free with each order and is easily adapted to any wedding tradition.
Other Family Medallion Uses........
In addition to the presentation of the Family Medallion to children, many brides and grooms present a Family Medallion to each other as part of the wedding service. The Family Medallion is also used to recognize other family members during the wedding including parents and grandparents and to acknowledge special family events such as anniversaries, baptisms, birthdays, Mother's Day, Father's Day and religious holidays.
