At a wedding that I help do floral arrangements for the couple had 8 kids between them. They had a garland made and placed 10 candles in holders in the the garland. Instead of an unity candle, they all light their candles as one big family. I heard everyone loved it. Most second weddings I have seen, keep it simple. But I know it is up to the bride to be and what she would like to do. If you need some help with more ideas,

Ang & Bon- Thanx for the feedback: Family Unity Candle is a GREAT idea! I believe the wedding/marriage vows should be between the Husband & Wife and won`t have the kids formally participate in any type of exchange of vows between parents and kids; however, the unity candle is neat & we`ll probably have one adult attendant each and then all of our children gathered around! Thanks again, DJMsBride
