This is a sensitive subject for me...

OH and my mom is walking me down the aisle.

Please, no urns... smh

My FH's father 13 years ago, during our ceremony the inefficient will honor his memory, I'm also thinking of getting a memorial candle I seen in one of the wedding books

I lost my father 15 years ago. My mother walked me down the aisle and we had a memorial table. Also I had a bouquet charm with my dad's picture in it. No special dance but my mom dedicated a song to me while all couples slow danced. It was sweet.

I have a question in a previous post it was mentioned for me to update my avatar... I'm new to this how do I do this

I have a photo charm that will go around the handle of my bouquet. (I also got FH a pocket watch with a picture of his father in it).

Our officiant will briefly mention that our fathers are with us in spirit during the Welcome part of our ceremony.

We will have a table set up with pictures of our dads and a plaque that says "We know you would be here today if Heaven weren't so far away."

Mom is walking me down the aisle. I don't think I am doing any dance at all. I considered dancing with my brothers but I'm not sure about that yet.

My dad passed 4 years ago. It all sucks. My uncle (his brother) will be officiating, I'll be walking myself down the aisle with something of his wrapped around my bouquet, and there will be no father/daughter dance or any variation of it. FH will be dancing with his mom but it will just be at some random point during the reception and private for them (as in not announced). Since FH and I have no living grandparents except my dad's mom, we will be displaying the wedding photos of all of our grandparents and parents as honoring our family. We are also mentioning in our program under the header of "here in spirit and truly missed".

I don't feel right replacing my dad with others during any of the traditional father/bride moments. No one can replace him (but that also doesn't mean that I think other people who have others walk them down the aisle or dance with them believe their fathers are replaceable by any means, thats just how I personally feel about it).

@JennV maybe this would work for you? It's my favorite saying and I wrote it on the back of a picture of my dad and I that I keep in my wallet.

I love all the ideas. I am not doing a father daughter dance. I was going to walk myself down the aisle with my dad there in spirit, but my brother insist on walking my down the aisle . I am thinking I will do a moment of silence and a candle for my dad if my venue allows it. At the ceremony I plan to have a seat for him with his picture to honor his presence. I am not religious , so I know there are many other ideas. Whatever you do make it something that is special to you, thats all that matters, your dad will be there in spirit always !

Thank you so much to everyone who has shared these hard moments.. I love alot of the ideas you ladies have posted
