I have a son from a previous relationship, he is 9. Him and my fh get along fabulously and have a great relationship. While I know not everything can revolve around my son, I do want to make sure he feels special and as included as he can be in this whole thing, as it effects his life just as much if not more than mine. I got to thinking, he is the only child in the wedding, but he's at that stage where he thinks of himself as being "one of the guys" with his uncles and such. Then it occurred to me that he doesn't get to participate in the guys pre wedding shenanigans. So I have decided that I am going to put together a "Dad-chelors" party for them. My fh doesn't have any biological kids yet, but my son tells his friends that he is his dad and refers to him as dad when anyone else asks. I figure this would be a good way to celebrate the two of them, and my fh officially stepping into that step dad role by marrying me. The theme of their little party will probably be something they both have mutual interest in, they like to look at Pokemon cards together, so it'll be kid friendly and neither will get bored of a wedding theme lol. Ill probably have a few other male family members over and will put together little goody bags and have pizzas and junk food. Nothing too extravagant just a little girl free something for them.
Has anyone else here tried to incorporate anything special for kids they are bringing into the marriage?
