Weddingbee boards

This is kind of a weird {and apparently a long-winded} question, but here it goes...

A little backstory, my husband and I eloped back in 2003 and were planning on having a big reception type thing in the Spring of 2004. Then I got pregnant about a month after we married, so the plans went out the window in favor of real life and a real baby, etc. :) We'll be married 6 years this August and are planning to renew our vows around our 7th anniversary{August 2010}. I guess it's our way of scratching the "7 year itch".

Anyway, our daughter will be 6 in June 2010 and we want her to be part of the ceremony, of course. When we were doing this at the beach, she and my best friend's two children were going to be our flower people. But, now we're doing the ceremony and reception at our favorite restaurant we think and there isn't really an aisle to walk down. So, I thought about having her read something. She is not shy and has performed in front of much bigger audiences then our ceremony will be already at the age of 4, so I'm not worried about stage fright. In fact, her school play drew 150 people last week and she worked the room like a champ, complete with chicken dance.

Anyway, I want her to read 1 Corinthians 13 {4-7}, which is fairly simple and standard. She just read through it with me and was fine. She really wants to do it and let's be honest...she has over a year to memorize it. She can and should do it, right? It would really mean a lot to her father and I to have her be such a special part of our evening. Also, every other wedding in the family has had the same passage read...except ours. So, my mother would be over the moon about it. I know she might back out at the last minute and I'm totally fine with that and wouldn't have an issue with it at all. My best friend, who is a Presbyterian minister and mother of two, is doing our ceremony and I know she'll be able to roll with whatever happens.

So, can anybody think of a reason she shouldn't do it? 

If she is a confident reader and has no problems doing it then why the heck not?  I think it will really capture the love and strength of your family too. Go for it.

@Mary-Alice-Me...I read your response as inappropriate, not appropriate. I almost cried. LOL.

Thanks y'all! 

@Charmed~Thank you. I won't push her, but if she still wants to do it tomorrow {She's 4 after all...she's had 20 birthday themes already this year}, we'll talk some more. She did tell my husband when he got home from work that she had been practicing during nap. So cute.
