This was my favorite part of our pledge period!! I thought it was so pretty!!

We used flowers and it was such a beautiful ceremony! We ordered all different types and colors of flowers...two in each type and color. The big sisters chose first which flower they wanted. They took one of the flower and left the other one on top of a plaque for their little. The plaque had their family poem on it. Once all of the bigs had picked their flowers and left their matching flower for their little...the rest of the sisters took all of the remaining flowers. All sisters also had a lit candle.

We had a table in the front of the room with a big bowl filled with floating unlit candles. (we were big on the floating candles!! LOL!!!) All of the sisters stood around the room holding their lit candles and their flowers. The little sisters would read their family poem and then pick up their flower. They would them walk around and look for their matching flower. When they found it that was their big sister. We had a lot of fun with it...and it was so pretty!! Then the big sister and the little sister walked up to the table. The big sister lit the little sisters candle..and then they both lit one of the floating candles together. It was really very pretty!!!
