Honoring ones who have passed

Do you or your FH have a piece of her jewelry that she left to you? I think that would be a sweet way to include her in the ceremony.

We had a memorial table at our wedding, in the ceremony pamphlets we had a section called "here in spirit" that names our grandparents, and the officiant started off our ceremony by mentioning our grandparents looking down on us. You could sew a part of her wedding dress to yours or borrow something for your something borrowed or blue? Your fiance could have a locket sewn into his coat or a picture on the back of his tie?This was our memorial table at our wedding.

I wore a locket with my dad's picture inside, so he could "walk me down the aisle"

You could have a charm bracelet with a charm that represents her somehow.
Or maybe have a piece of her clothing sewn into a heart on the inside of your dress?

Sorry my pics didnt post!

View Quoted Comment Oh I love the second picture! I can make matching ones for my fiancé and I. Unfortunately i never got to meet her - she passed a year before my fiancé and I got together from cancer, she passed within 2 months of being diagnosed. she was my fiancé’s rock, he talks about her so much I feel like I know her. So I only felt right that I try to honor her some how.

My fiance's close friend passed away right after we got engaged (about a month ago) and he would have been a groomsman. We are trying to think of a way to honor him on our day. I showed my FH that exact picture of the pin and he loves it! I think we will have a picture of him and a picture of FH's grandma that he can wear so they will both be close to his heart.

I plan to have a seat next to my mother in honor of my dad and have a picture of him to hang on the chair.

Later move the frame to a table in the reception.

We are looking at having a memory table, saving a seat for FHs late step mom and we will have a loving song play while we release lanterns (we never got a funeral for her)

My future mother in law also has passed, and we are going to put a picture of her in one of the bridal party chairs for the ceremony. I know that may not help with your courthouse wedding.
