the family medallion

I love medals.  I have many pieces of symbolism that I wear on chain around my neck.  My favorite and the ones I often wear are my immaculate conception medal, my tree medal, and a silver circle which is inscribed with the words "Not all that wander are lost".   So of course, I am in love with The Family Medallion and believe it should be included in all wedding ceremonies that are blending two families.

When your wedding consists of two families becoming one, and your children and their children becoming siblings.  This is a wedding and marriage that is bigger than the both of you.   This is a celebration where all should share the promise, and the symbolism. “The Family Medallion” is a lovely addition to the ring ceremony. 

The wedding ring is a circle that represents a love that is endless and it is given during the ceremony as a symbol of that timeless love and a token of the promises shared.  The Family Medallion is three circles intertwined and it represents a family being bonded, becoming one and sharing a life together.  The Medallion can be given to the children and promises made of being a united family and then a special blessing.

The Family Medallion would also be a lovely and symbolic way to celebrate a child’s adoption.  A sweet, sensitive ceremony that would touch everyone and give a lovely way for the new parents to give thanks, rejoice and celebrate their new and lovely life and journey.

    I believe in the ceremony of things. I believe in making personal occasions PERSONAL.
