Hello everyone.
The wedding planning was going smoothly until ...yesterday.
But "here comes the first debate" (not an argument, or at least, not yet):
My FW wants to honor our 5 grandparents who have passed away . So: we initially agreed that we would go to the subtle,discreet route after I suggested some ideas I found on some previous threads: the DJ can play some of their favorite songs, she can incorporate our granma's favorite flowers in her bouquet, the bouquet photo charms, etc ... She was fine with that but for some reason that escapes me,she changed her mind and wants to display some pics of our deceased GP on a table!
(She doesn't want the whole memory table with a lantern, a sign, a candle with a note).
I think that:
1) It might be sweet but it's too much and awkward in my humble opinion because a wedding is about celebrating the couple, and should be a happy event.A funeral is about celebrating and mourning lost loved ones.
2) I know my crowd on this one! Some of them are very emotional persons and could break down sobbing.
But::
1) She doesn't see it as a sad thing.
2) She argues that this is the best way to include them.
In fact, I don't want to "win" the debate, I want to compromise because this thing became important to her ... but it's challenging to say the least!
Is there a way to display the pics without diminishing the joyous mood?
Any thoughts?
