Generations of love, separated parents

Ok, tried to post this in a Facebook group and got 0 responses! Hoping for better luck here lol. So I have been seeing this adorable idea of a "generations of love" table where you put photos of parents and grandparents/Great Grandparents from their wedding day, this would go so well with out theme! However, My fiancés parents were married but got separated a long time ago, they still talk and are civil, but I feel it might be weird to put a photo of them from their wedding day at our wedding, when they are now separated and have been for years. Should I scratch this idea or is there a way around it?

    Personally I wouldn't include their wedding photo. You or your FS could ask them if it's really important to you, but as someone who's been divorced, it would be weird to see those pictures at an event.

    Are his parents in relationships with other people? If so, you could put photos of each of them with their significant others. I would not include a photo of his parents from their wedding day.

    I would scratch that idea, especially with your fiance's parents being divorced.

    If they’re with other people, I’d scratch the idea entirely because it might offend their partners. If they’re not and it’s important to you, I think your fiancé should be the one to ask. My parents have been divorced since I was three and have a lot of love and humor surrounding their former marriage, but that’s not the case for everyone. They should get to decide whether it’s appropriate.
